A Look at the American Standard Soaking Tub

The American Standard soaking tub is perfect for anybody who enjoys taking long relaxing baths after a hard day, and they offer a selection so large that you will be able to find one that suits you perfectly. This type of bathtub is characterized by being nice and deep so you can usually soak up to your shoulders if you like, unlike most standard sized conventional tubs that are so shallow and small that you can barely fit in them. You can get small soaking tub models, so they don’t take up much space, but make this up by being deeper than usual. This article will take a look at a few of the most popular models offered by the company.

One American Standard acrylic soaking tub that you may particularly be interested in is the Reminiscence™ Slipper Soaking Bathtub. It features the classic clawfoot design and is a freestanding model so moving and installing it is simple. They have an affordable list price of a little more than $2,000 and come in a variety of two tone color combinations from black/white to fawn beige. Its sculpted rim is made to match other fixtures in the Reminiscence product line. It is nice and deep and features the vintage slipper shape that has one side of the bathtub raised up to provide a head rest so you can sit back and relax comfortably.

Although a little more on the pricy side, if you are someone who is elderly or disabled, you may want to purchase a Walk-in American Standard soaking tub. This type features a door on the side of the unit that makes getting in and out of the bathtub as easy and safe as possible. Besides this, other safety features are built in as well such as a slip resistant floor, handles on the door for an easy grip, and more. It has a freestanding metal frame and is available as a soaker, whirlpool, Airspa, or combination. However, their price tag of $7,000 and up can be enough to have certain buyers shy away from it.

One type of American Standard soaking tub that is both functional and inexpensive is the Scala soaking corner tub. This is the model for you if you do not have much space available because it installs in the corner of the bathroom conveniently out of the way, leaving most of the bathroom still available to move around in. They are made from high quality acrylic and reinforced with fiberglass to increase their resistance to scratches and cracks. Water flanges at 5 foot on each side means you have plenty of room to sit back and soak even though this is a smaller bathtub.

As you can see, with such a wide selection available, you will have no problem finding the American Standard soaking tub that best fits you.
