So I finally got my Kohler Greek tub installed. Sat in it today for the first time. Totally awesome! Davidro1--you may remember that I posted about this a while back. I ended up doing a step to cut the visual imposition of such a deep tub. It looks fabulous and the step does help since I have a grab bar. Anyone who doesn't have a ton of room but wants a great soak--I recommend this tub heartily!

There is at least one owner here if you search this board. I'm never seen either in person, but the Maax Rubix looks like a better take on the same basic concept - it has more room in side in all dimensions but fits in the same space IIRC.

hi Soshh, Are you looking for tub with more than 20'' deep? So far, I found the following tubs from MTI with inline-heater options for our candidate. They are all 19-21'' deep. Since you can install 42'' wide tub, you will have more option than me! :) Here is their search page if you haven't looked yet: http://www.mtiwhirlpools.com/products/ >MTI-5 Whyndam 1 (59 3/4 x 35 3/4 x 19 3/4), rectangular, $1086 >MTI-22 Holiday (59 1/2x35 1/2 x 20), rectangular, $1138 >MTI-15 Charleston 1 (60x36x19 1/4), oval, $1101 >MTI-9 Victoria 2 (59 3/4 x 35 1/2 x 21 3/4), oval, $1195 As I searched more, it seems Aquatic doesn't drill hales for tub spout&valves. So I'm leaning toward MTI at this moment... -b

We love our hot tub. It is right off our deck on a slab of concrete. We took down our fence railing so we could step down into it. We have a fenced in yard but not much privacy around the hot tub, just the house behind it. We haven't come up with a good solution yet for a screen. We live in Iowa and use it mostly year round, we just close it for about 2 months in the summer. It is a great time for togetherness. We have great conversations in the hot tub either the whole family, or just hubby and I. Swim suits with the kids or in the daytime, No suits at night alone or with hubby. It is great to be in it with the snow fallin on our head! I just have to figure out how to handle our deck finish. Scraping snow each winter to get to the hot tub tears up our deck finish. I wish it was a patio or brick. We have considered covering our deck by extending our roofline, but that would be pricey. Hmmm..., I wonder if I could but THIN bricks over the surface of our deck. Has anyone tried this? I wonder if it would be too heavy for the deck. Anyway, we love our hot tub. We purchased it with money from my parents estate after they passed. My dad was practical, so half went to start a college savings for our kids. My Mom would have wanted us to enjoy our money, so we bought the hot tub with the other half. We just didn't want the money to go for groceries or anything. We think of them when we use it now and it sort of honors their memory.
