Holy wow!  I am 5'6" and when I sit in this tub it comes up to my shoulders.  I was looking for a deep, true soaking tub that would fit in our very standard size, tiny bathroom.  I am happy to report - I got that!  If you are looking for a deep, beautiful tub - this is it!  That said, make sure you get the color trim you want because to order a replacement set is VERY pricey!
