Been reading and researching for months, figured I'm just going to ask my specific questions instead of piecing everything together.
Since I can't find any showrooms where I can physically evaluate these tubs for myself I would like some opinions on these tubs or any recommendations. Looking for a sturdy, quality, reinforced tub with a tile flange. Ruled out cast iron bc we would have to reinforce floor. Through research decided on Acrylic. We need 60X30 Alcove Soaking tub.
Narrowed it down to:
-Kohler Archer
-Jacuzzi Signature Tru Leveling
-American Standard (Does the Skirt have a removable panel? I don't know if I would like that)
-Or any recommendations you all have
Additional ?'s
-For mortar base, What product do you recommend?
-With the Tru leveling system, should I still use mortar base?
-Any recommendations for quality solid brass faucets? We have hard water and also are tried of the flimsy selections at the big box stores.
Thanks for anyone with some input, any advise will help. I understand any product can fail, but we are gutting the bathroom, this is a HUGE investment for us. So we just want to try and get it right on a budget so we are not replacing things in a couple years.
