The bathroom is an important space, a place where you can relax and take care of yourself. Among the key elements of a bathroom, the bathtub plays a central role. However, with the wide range of models and options available on the market, making the right choice for your bathroom can become a complex task. In this article, we will look at several factors to consider when deciding which bathtub model is best for your needs. Did you know that Relax also offers bathtubs? Discover them here!
Dimensions and space
The first consideration when choosing a bathtub is the space available in your bathroom. It is crucial to carefully measure the dimensions of your bathroom to ensure the tub will fit correctly. If space is limited, you may need to opt for a more compact tub or corner tub to maximize use of space. On the other hand, if you have a large bathroom, you may consider a larger bathtub or a freestanding tub for a more modern and current feel.
If available space allows it, a freestanding tub is optimal.
Positioning
The choice of location for the bathtub is essential to optimize the use of space and create a welcoming environment. Make sure you place your bathtub in an optimal position to make it the undisputed queen of your bathroom. We have collected the most common placements for you:
- Center of the bathroom: If you want your tub to be the focal point of the bathroom, you can place it in the center of the room. Freestanding bathtubs leave plenty of space to walk on.
- Panoramic View: If your bathroom has a panoramic view or picture windows, placing the tub next to one of these openings can offer a unique bathing experience, allowing you to enjoy the natural beauty while you relax.
- Relaxing corner: If you prefer a more intimate and peaceful atmosphere, you can place the tub in a corner of the bathroom. This arrangement can create a relaxing corner, providing a private refuge for moments of well-being.
- Double tub: If space allows and your bathroom is shared, consider installing two Vinca tubs to create an intimate and romantic sharing environment.
Is the positioning with a panoramic view among the best? We believe so!
Materials and quality
Bathtubs can be made of different materials, but the most versatile and suitable is undoubtedly the solid surface. The solid surface is among the most popular materials in the last decade, it is a non-slip and antibacterial compound of resins and minerals, which can be restored over time. It is important to choose a high quality material that is resistant and easy to clean: the solid surface can be repaired from scratches and stains with a simple abrasive sponge.
