Better: Accessible Walk-in Tub Line
Accessible Hybrid Walk-in / Slide-in Bathtub Line
nAmazing’s Better level of our Accessible Walk-in /Slide-in Bathtubs are an amazing hybrid between standard walk-in bathtubs and full transition tubs. These tubs originate mostly from our own unique conceptual designs for bathers with restricted mobility issues. Amazing’s Better Walk-in / Silde-in Bathtubs offer a functional 30” wide and 50” long and full 40” deep size (availability may vary). These walk-in tubs follow the same general quality standards, built to maintain serviceable quality. Our “Better” quality Accessible Walk-in Bathtub also features a wide outward swing door for easy access and compliance with aging-in-place guidelines.
“Better” means that these Accessible Walk-in Bathtubs represent our mid-level quality line, and we can price them to meet (or more often beat) any other low price walk-in tub you might encounter on the web. Please do not be pressured or misled into purchasing a lower quality tub from a high pressure or “trickster” internet sales person.
Framing
is a sturdy 1” aluminum, with a mid-grade fiberglass
shell. Design features mean more room in the bathing
well and less water usage over other hybrid walk-in
bathtubs having the same footprint. Seats are at the ADA
recommended 17” height.
Keep in mind, there are many walk-in tubs out there that we will never sell! There are many companies who will sell them to you and never give it another thought, regardless of the problems you might have.
Our
Better level of Accessible Line walk-in bathtubs come
with options for our high quality “partially ADA
compliant fixtures”, or our exclusive fully ADA
compliant package. Each tub is pre-plumbed at our on
factory, so you have the choice to have “Better” quality
valves (actually very nice rapid flow valves that are
significantly higher quality than the competition), our
ADA cable operated drain systems and Amazing’s “Better”
quality components. Amazing’s ADA showering system is
through a deck mounted diverter valve system that can
include a separately plumbed TMV shower valve and an ADA
hand-held shower system. The self-articulating door
means easy operation for even the weakest bather.
The
1” aluminum tubular metal with reinforced fiberglass
permits our engineers to aggressively weight test these
walk-in tubs. They rate at a respectable and serviceable
645 lbs before the frame will flex. Many years of
experience in the market has taught us these walk-in
tubs will tend to flex somewhat over time, especially
with larger bathers. But, our integrated one piece doors
and heavier hinges mean the life expectancy is
comparable to our Best Accessible Walk-in Bathtubs.
We believe that 25+ years of residential use is
realistic.
Amazing’s BETTER level of our Accessible Walk-in
Bathtubs are a great option for anyone on a budget, and
we can guarantee you that we will meet,… and beat, any
price on the internet. And, at Amazing Walk-in Therapy
Tubs, we are here to help you and work with you all the
way.
WARNING: This is the design most commonly sold on the
internet. Walk-in Bathtubs are the favorite design of
low-quality manufacturers and internet re-sellers
because the consumer (and many of the re-sellers
themselves) don’t understand the vast difference between
one walk-in tub and another. However, just as with cars,
appliances, clothing and everything else we purchase,
there are vast differences in quality. We understand
there are Yugos, Kias, Chryslers, Toyotas and Bentleys
when it comes to cars. Most consumers of cars know the
difference and can choose for themselves the quality
level that best suits their needs. NOT SO WITH WALK-IN
BATHTUBS!
SO, beware, … there are many re-sellers of walk-in tubs selling low quality at high prices, low quality at low prices, and everything in between. For everyone on a budget, we will help you understand and decide for yourself just what your “best” walk-in bathtub choice really is.
