What are the cons of a clawfoot tub?

1. It may be difficult to climb in and out (especially for children, the elderly or the disabled)

2.Impractical to combine with shower

3.Limited storage space

4.Often costly

Types of clawfoot tubs

Just as there are different types of feet, you’ll also need to consider what shape you’ll want.

Double ended: This has two round ends, with the faucet located in the middle of the tub so that you have the option of sitting on either end.

Single slipper Tubs: A single slipper has a higher raised end on one side, creating a perfect spot to soak with your magazine and glass of wine.

Other Considerations:

• Size. (Tubs run from 54 inches to 72 inches; you’ll want to choose a model where the tallest member of the family can comfortably fit.)

• How many people are bathing? Yes, some baths fit two adults.

• Fixtures, unless you are ordering a bathtub package that comes with that already set.

• Color. For example, WOODBRIDGE has elegant black.
