Bath time

Bath Time

A bathtub for the Master Ensuite has been a point of contention since we first started shopping for plumbing.

The first bathtub we saw and fell in love with was the Soho Tub from Vanico Maronyx:





I have no idea what it is made from but it is built like a tank.  It has beautiful, clean lines, and a high-gloss finish and a stylish center drain which makes it ideal for a two-person bath.

The store had a model on display that they were looking to clear out - but even at their reduced price on this tub, it was still not in our price range.  I had a budget, and I'm sticking to it - or so I thought.

My hubby and I have had numerous heated discussions over this tub and whether or not we should get it.  I really can't understand his affection for this tub.  It's not like either of us are bath-takers .... the tub is a simple staging prop.  You can't have a designer master ensuite without a bathtub.

I'd put the tub out of my mind and moved on with a much cheaper selection, although we haven't ordered anything yet.  I went by the plumbing store again to finalize some pricing over selections we'd first made last fall.  Turns out that big paperweight of a tub is still there.  Seems like they are a little more motivated to sell this boat to the point where we'd be getting it for about half-price and it falls within our budget.

My hubby's going by to order it tomorrow :)
