Need input on modern soaker tubs

10 years ago

We are remodeling our bathroom and want a modern style, alcove soaker tub (simple, clean angular lines, ~20" tall). We've found a few models we like but there is very little information or reviews on any of them. We'd like a good quality tub that is durable and doesn't scratch too easily - we do understand that acrylic is no cast iron. Want to make sure the tub holds up as ripping it out in a few years to replace would be extremely costly.

Does anyone have input on any of the following?

Jacuzzi Linea - LNS6032BRXXXXW - http://shop.ferguson.com/product/jacuzzi-JLNS6032BR-white-898411

We like the look of this one the best, but it seems like may not be very durable? Does Jacuzzi make good standard tubs (non whirlpool)? Will it hold up? Also, saw a review on build.com that said it scratched easily.

Looks nice, but is twice the price of the Jacuzzi and Duravit - any noticeable difference in durability, quality, how easily would scratch?

Maax - Rubix - http://www.maax.com/en/products/bathtubs/rectangular/rubix-6030-6032

Also is a good look - didn't find much info on Maax.

Duravit Architec - http://shop.ferguson.com/product/duravit-D700353000000090-white-809471?tb=

We don't like the look of this one as much, prefer the simpler, squared off lines of these others, but I saw one in person and it seemed more durable than some others had seen.

Arista Pontormo 32 x 60 Front Skirted Drop-In Soaker Bathtub - Tub w/ Right Drain

Just came across this one on houzz...

Mirabelle - Sitka or Edenton - I believe Mirabelle is exclusive to the shop Ferguson. Also saw some reviews that indicated inconsistent quality.


...Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks,

Brian
