Walk-in bathtubs are great because they allow you to bathe without having to step out of the tub. They also provide an easy way to clean up after yourself.

Bathtubs come in many different styles and sizes, so there's something for everyone. Here are some things to consider when choosing a walk-in tub.
Traditional Walk-Ins

A traditional walk-in bathtub has a large opening at the top of the tub where you enter. It usually has a drain hole in the floor as well. This type of tub is typically made of cast iron or fiberglass. Contemporary walk-ins are smaller than traditional walk-ins. They often have a door instead of a large opening at the front of the tub. These tubs are usually made of acrylic or plastic.

Shower/Tub Combos

If you’re looking for a more modern bathroom design, consider installing a shower/tub combo. You can still enjoy the benefits of a walk-in tub while enjoying the convenience of a shower.

Tubs with Built-In Showers

A shower/tub combination offers several advantages. First, it allows you to take advantage of both the bathing and cleaning benefits ...
... of a tub and the convenience of a shower at the same time. Second, it provides a space where you can relax and unwind after a hard day’s work.

Third, it gives you the option of using either a shower head or a handheld shower wand.

Walk-In Tubs With Separate Showers

If you prefer to use a separate shower, there are walk-in tub options available that will fit into any bathroom. These tubs come with a showerhead and a hand held shower wand. You can choose between a fixed showerhead or a handheld shower wand so you can adjust the water pressure as needed.
