Wife and I think we want a walk-in tub with shower and I’m asking for anyone with knowledge here to cast some pearls. I could use them. I’m not handy and will either have a good carpenter/builder I know install it or one of the brand name seller/installers.

Unless persuaded otherwise, we want one of the small footprint sit in tubs with a door on the side and low threshold, no extras or frills.

Whether online or on the phone I’ve run into gobbledygook and evasions from ALL seller/installers. Safestep, Kohler and American Standard are scheduled to come look at our place and give us a bid. Home Depot and ilk are the only places that give features and price.

Experience, advice, warnings welcome.
