1600mm bath tubs.

Anyone got a smaller 1600mm bath tub? Is it still ok for an average size adult to have a bit of a soak? We are not a bath mad family but more occasional use. I'm a bit worried it will be to small.

We've got one, it's fine for me. My DH struggles a bit but he's 6ft5.

We had a 170mm one before (Long story!) I honestly don't notice the difference.

That's good to hear. I'm 5'7" husband's 5'10". Current one is 1700 but very rounded up the head end. The newly ordered 1600 is square shaped, so roomier round the shoulders when laying I should think! Thanks for the reassurance.

We had one and found it incredibly uncomfortable. Had it removed and replaced with a large shower, much better.

We had one, it was fine for 5’3 me but 6’3 dh couldn’t get comfy- you are both in between so hopefully ok...

Width is important too. Ours is 1700 but narrow and it's rubbish.

I have one and hadn't really noticed that much difference. And I'm tall. Then again I hate baths and am having it replaced with a decent sized shower.

Sounds like it should be ok then. It really is only for occasional use. There is a separate shower elsewhere. So fingers crossed x

What about a big deep soaking tub?
