Overview
American Standard is a leader in the walk-in tub industry, and they have a vast network of walk-in tub installers across the US and Canada. Their walk-in tubs are proudly made in Dallas, Texas.
Our favorite model: American Standard offers a wide variety of walk-in tubs from basic soaker models to high-end, fast-draining whirlpool massage types. They also make tubs with larger doorways, as well as ones with outward-opening doors.
Features: Features vary based on the cost, size, and amenities of the walk-in tubs offered. Options like right and left-sided doors to massage systems and in-line heaters, allow you to pick the right tub for your layout and needs. As a tub should be as enjoyable as it is safe, some tubs also have heated seats, chromotherapy, quick-fill and quick-draining (2 min or less drain time), and aromatherapy for the ultimate relaxing experience.
Cost: From $2,300 – $11,500
Warranty: Lifetime warranty, including installation, labor, and walk-in-tub.
