Any one got a Japanese bath?

Need to do up a very small bathroom and we've been looking into making it into a wet room. For various dull reasons it's going to be both tricky and expensive. Just wondered if anyone has experience of buying and installing a Japanese bath in uk?

Not got one but used to live in Japan and i would happily get one because they are great. Ok so you cannot stretch your legs but can have the water right up to your neck and the bath water stays warmer much longer. Only thing i suppose is if you want to sell soon it may be a bit niche for most people viewing who may think of it as a negative.

Friends of ours have- they live in a converted church with a Japanese style extension. Sounds bizarre but it works. Bath in question is in the ensuite of a three year old who loves it, but may not be the most reliable critic. It's something like this.

Thanks for replies - we had a holiday in Japan and loved the baths. It's not the main bathroom - it's mostly a second loo and a place to dry clothes. I was wondering if there was a particular place recommended to buy them in uk.

Omnitub.co.uk

I looked at their website a few years ago so they have been around for a while for what its worth.
