They offer a low threshold and a wide door for easy step-in access, grab bars and a deep built-in seat for safer transitions from sitting to standing and often have hydrotherapy jets for added relaxation. Together these features create a more accessible bathing solution to help people live independently and age in place longer. Learn more about the Walk-In Bath’s safety and comfort features.

  • Wide Door and Low Entry Allows Accessibility

    James  Pennington, NJ I was most satisfied with the design of the tub. I like the door, it seems to be a little wider. The access is a little bit easier to get in and out. Being the tub is wide, you don't have a little hump that you have to climb over.
