This tub is perfect for long soaks!  It is large enough for my 6 foot husband and comfortable for a 5"2' me.  The clean lines and modern look are exactly what I was looking for.  I'm only giving it 4 stars since it came damaged (probably because it's such a large item for delivery) and by the time we had it installed, it was too late to return.  I would suggest using your own plumbing since what is provided is pretty flimsy.
