In most cases, homeowners shower far more frequently than they bathe. If that's true for you, then let the shower design dictate options for the bathtub. Furthermore, you should incorporate a bathtub only if you'll actually use the bathtub. Some folks mistakenly believe they need a bathtub to maintain the resale value of a home. That's simply not true. Particularly if you have a tub in at least one other bathroom, don't be afraid to eliminate it in your master bathroom. You can use that space for a much bigger shower, more storage capacity, or a sitting area.
