I just purchased a freestanding air bath - so at this point I cannot say I love it or don't.

I will say that in doing research freestanding units are hard to find.

I had narrowed my choise down to Aquatic - Serenty 11 or Vita Bath - L'Eau, they were the only ones which fit in with design aestheic in our bathroom (vintage) I went with the Vita Bath since it had aromatherapy & chromatherapy included in their unit for basically same price as Aquatic.

I will say Vita Bath has less jets but given that I am getting more options & I have nothing to gauge against - having always had whirlpool baths - I am comfortable with my choice. Should be installed shortly and we will be moving into house in mid-Aug so maybe I can update you then.

Good luck in your search & decision.

nor176... thanks for your reply. I got sidetracked in the steam shower threads!! Did your Vita Bath get installed yet? Anxious to hear how you like it. I've also looked at both the Aquatic and Vita Bath. If my memory serves me correctily, without digging back into my files, isn't the Vita Bath a bit smaller? The Serenity, big enough for 2, is bigger than what i think would look right in our bathroom. So hard to tell before the walls are up! We're also going vintage (farmhouse). I'm looking into the Champaign series from American Bath Factory as well. They have a pretty good variety of sizes and styles to choose from, lots of jets, and the price seems a little lower. Did you order on line or from a local retailer?

Hope to hear how you like yours, although I'll probably have to make my decision before mid-August. Thanks for your info!
