We were looking to replace the tub in our guest (childrens') bathroom upstairs. This tub is definitely an improvement! It is the perfect depth to lie in and soak and also for the kids to play in during bath time. It was very easy to install, even on a second floor where we could not access the pipes under the bathtub. It went in easily and very level with no leaking. I foresee this tub lasting a long time due to the strong materials. I would definitely purchase this item again.
