Buy a bathtub

Thanks to our brand partners Bette, Villeroy & Boch and Duravit we can offer you a wide range of bathtubs in various designs and shapes. Badeloft, Burgbad, Geberit, Glass-Design and Axor complete our range of bathtubs.

Bathtub material

In addition to the variety of shapes, designs and sizes, each manufacturer focuses on a particular material. Bette, for example, shapes its bathtubs from steel, Burgbad and Badeloft focus more on mineral casting, while Villeroy & Boch focuses more on acrylic or Quaryl. Steel bathtubs have exceptional thermal conductivity and quickly absorb the heat of the bath water. Thanks to special optional coatings, you can also achieve easy cleaning. Acrylic bathtubs are very easy to clean, as they are non-porous and seamlessly smooth. This feature is also offered by Quaryl bathtubs, which also provide excellent thermal insulation. Mineral casting also combines these forms, but in terms of weight it is a much more solid material. Exotic there are rather the bathtubs of Glass Design, which produce extravagant forms of glass. Here, the bathtub is considered a true object of art. Do not compromise on the quality of the goods in any of the materials. There, every manufacturer stands with his name for the fact that you enjoy a high product quality.

Buying a bathtub - what to look for?

Anyone who decides to buy a bathtub or replace an existing bathtub is faced with a lot of unanswered questions, which he or she must become clear.

How many people should use the bathtub?

In addition to the shape of the bath in the exterior, you also need to decide whether the bathtub will be used by one or often 2 people at the same time. Here, for example, a bathtub with a center drain would come into consideration, so that no one has to sit on the drain. The interior shape is also crucial. For example, if the bathtub is to function as a shower at the same time, you should either choose bathtubs with a separate shower area or opt for a bathtub where one side is steeply sloping and not sloping.

What material should the bathtub be made of?

Are you someone who appreciates good thermal conductivity in a bathtub, and then the tub should also last a long time and withstand external influences such as shocks or impacts? Then you should use a steel enamel bathtub. Lovers of light weight will probably tend to acrylic bathtubs, although it should be emphasized here that these bathtubs tend to discolor over the years. Or are you looking for a bathtub that is resistant and, above all, exudes safety? Then the mineral casting material would be suitable for your type of bathtub. Each material promises advantages, but also disadvantages. We will be happy to evaluate these and assess them individually in close cooperation with you.

How big should be the bathtub?

At the end of the selection, of course, is the size of the bathtub. We are always confronted with the fact that the customer chooses the bathtub to fit his space, during the consultation on the hotline or in the showroom. But you should definitely put even more emphasis on your needs. As already mentioned, the use with one or two people plays a role there on the one hand, but also the space available is crucial. What's the point of owning a beautifully designed bathtub that is durable and long-lasting, but the dimensions are not right. So when choosing a bathtub, make sure that you can immerse yourself up to the neck, that you can lie comfortably even from the space available in the width and that you can find support at the end of the tub so that you do not sink into it. Some drain sets also ensure that you can enjoy the water level a few centimeters higher than if you use a classic set in the bath.

Is there also a bathtub with whirlpool function?

On request, many manufacturers offer whirl systems to equip the bathtub accordingly with a whirl function. We will be happy to advise you on which whirl function fits your wishes with the respective manufacturer of the bathtub.

How to install the bathtub?

With the question of how to install the bathtub, you round out any purchase decision. Meanwhile, there are not only freestanding bathtubs with a fixed apron. Even bathtubs with wall connection now have aprons that make tiling unnecessary. Here it is quite necessary to compare the price: What is the cost of the bath with a fixed apron compared to the bath, which is installed and subsequently tiled. Generally, or rather classically, the decision for built-in bathtubs is usually between tub feet and tub supports. With the bathtub feet, of course, you have more freedom in the installation, because they can adapt to the conditions thanks to adjustability. They are the affordable solution for bathtub installation and are also universal. Whether you then provide the tub with an apron, let in a built solution or wall in, is thereby left to you or your installer. Alternatively, as we have already mentioned, a tub support could be considered. In addition to the possibility of better tiling, this also has the advantage that the tub is insulated. Thus, the water in the bathtub remains warm longer in the end. Please note that a tub support must be suitable for the tub.

What other extras are important when buying a bathtub?

Our range of bathtubs is rounded off by accessories such as bathtub feet or drain and overflow sets. Of course, we also check every shopping cart that you place with us without prior consultation for completeness and coherence. If the accessories you are looking for are not listed here, please do not hesitate to ask us. In addition to the online offer, we offer many exciting features in the area of the bathtub. Of course, we will also be happy to advise you when it comes to choosing the right faucet solution for the bathtub. Some bathtub accessories, such as a trio set, create confusion for customers as to what they now need to operate them. You do not know what a Trio set is? No problem, we will be happy to explain it to you. In a bathtub is usually used a drain and overflow set, which prevents the water from draining or overflowing. In the past, this was still common with the good old plug, which was on a small chain. Nowadays there are more shapely solutions, which are then also opened by push to open or by turning. With the Trio set, in addition to the drain and overflow, the bathtub also gets an inlet at the same time through this set. The overflow is equipped with the additional function of the bathtub inlet, so you can actually save a separate inlet fitting. In addition to this type of inlet, there are now also spring inlets, where the water flows from the drain into the tub. So technical know-how knows no bounds, even in the bathtub.

How does the bathtub from the online store come to me?

All the bathtubs we offer are shipping goods, so they will come to you by truck. We always ship the goods with appropriate transport insurance and ask you to inspect the bathtubs externally upon receipt. We set high standards for our transport partners and want you to be satisfied with the delivery of your bathtub at all times. This also includes that we instruct the forwarding agents to give you an advice by phone, so that your bathtub arrives on your desired date at your desired time.
