Tub Brand Suggestions?

5 years ago

I am soon embarking on a master bath remodel. I have determined I’d really like an acrylic undermounted soaking tub with stone decking. I like the streamlined look and functionality of that set up (as opposed to a free standing tub) Can anyone advise on a specific tub/brand that would fit my need? Thank you!

I have a Kohler Underscore acrylic tub. Mine is drop-in, but you can do it under mounted. I like the back slope/lumbar support. Regarding under mounting, be sure that your fabricator can do a reveal such that the stone decking doesn’t poke you in the head when you lean back to relax. I don’t know what that reveal would be, or if they can do it sufficient; maybe ask Kohler and fabricator. That’s why I undermounted mine, so that my head rests against the contour of the tub, not touching the decking.

This is why bath pillows were created. Get the Kohler and don’t sweat it.
