...and are happy with it, would you mind telling me which one you've got and why you like it please? We're on the verge of ordering one but just wanted to see what other people have!

Thanks Smile

We have this one:

The bath store was recommended by the three separate independent traders who came over to quote on our new bathroom. In the end they did everything from planning to ripping out the old and fitting the new. It's perfect.

We have an Adamsez one. Its nice and sleek. Also very easy to clean and tough especially as DS2 has twatted his bath toys against it and drawn with his bath crayons!

We bought a bath just like this one:

I like it because you can have a decent shower in it - the bath fits flush to the corner of the wall, then all you need is the glass shower screen.

Other roll top baths aren't as satisfactory - either the water goes everywhere or you have to crouch down with that wee shower hose that is part of the taps.

Having the feet gives the illusion of making the bathroom look bigger because you can see the floor underneath.

You have to be careful getting out of it through as it's quite high - I would say it's no good for very elderly relatives if it's your only bath/shower.

I got quite wistful looking at all the amazing baths in catalogues, but you'll see most of them are shown in a massive space that "ordinary" bathrooms just haven't got.

What's your budget? I love this one. Beautiful but £ouch!

The Burlington London Soaking Tub is similar.

I knew it'd be expensive!

I actually can't remember the last time I had a bath, so not sure I could justify it!

Holy crap! £5.5k for a bath?! That's pretty much our entire budget for the whole bathroom refurb Grin

I've got my eye on one that's £500 but dh thinks that's a lot Hmm

Ooh, have just discovered this one which is half the price, plus free delivery (other one was £500 + £35 delivery).

D Shaped bath

Plus it has good reviews. It's just it only has a 5yr warranty as opposed the the Trojancast one which is 30yrs.

Decisions decisions!
