Well, we've been in our house for two and a half years. Neither we nor any of our guests have ever used the tub in the main bathroom. Maybe I should convert it into an indoor garden :)

I never use the tub in my hall bath, only the shower in the master. BUT, my bf loves a bath.

Me never. My husband once every blue moon. I use the guest bathtub ones in a while to bath my grand kids when they stay over.

At least 5x week when I have one. We're mentally re-arranging our bathroom since I miss it SO much. Plus, the heat is good for my poor f###ked up left side. On a bad day I might take 2, even been known to take up to 3 on bad nights.

I’d take more if the only tub in the house wasn’t in the shared main bathroom with the shower over it. Since it is so heavily used I always feel like I’d need to wash it first before bathing (to make sure there is no residue that would irritate my skin) and that’s too much work when I’m already sore and tired enough to want a bath.

Wow Emily, did I count correctly and were you able to post 8 new polls within an hour? Since the majority of the polls already bear your name, I start to wonder if you do this for a living... And still I doubt I could find as many topics as you can. It's amazing.

Concerning this one. My husband has some physical problems and finds alleviation in the bathtub. The kids use it rarely. I don't like bathing, since I hate to risk dropping a book in the water and otherwise am bored within two minutes. However I do soak in a bath to get overly clean, before I am hospitalized (when I am scheduled for something, not when I'm rushed there...)

I use it about once a week, my husband uses it most days. He started using it when he had a problem with his knee and needed to soak it, but likes it now. There is a tv in there and he lays in the tub and watches tv.

hmmmm sadly it's been perhaps 3 times in 18 years. We have been 'toying' with the idea of removing it as it is a spa bath(water is wasted also expensive) and replacing it with a sauna/steam room.

I know I'd love to use a tub every day if I could. I've always had standard built in tubs with a shower, so I feel like the idea of usable tub would be more a free standing soaking tub. However, for resale value of the house it is extremely important to have a tub in case potential buyers have small children.

We all use the shower in my house, even the kids. After the baby can sit up I moved on from the baby tub to the bumbo seat and bathe in the bumbo seat. I don't put the little kids in the bathtub because 1. It's dangerous and 2. They spill everywhere and I certainly do not have the time to soak and because of risk of electrocute I don't want my kids to.

The lady likes to use the bath but she has a hard time with tubs being too short to relax in (she's 5'3"), I want to put a shower in our master. I do think having one tub in the house is important for washing the dog and for what we will eventually use to bathe children in. Honestly, for me i think if you're older than 8, a tub is kinda useless.

We only have one full bathroom. There is no master suite in my house. There's a tub/shower combo in there. I used to never use the tub until we had a baby. Once she outgrew her infant tub I started taking baths with her and realized I actually really like taking baths. I now take a bath myself about once a week, in addition to bathing her 2-3 times per week.

I never take baths so when I remodeled my master bath I put in a big shower. Baths, and in particular free standing ones are expensive and basically useless - at least to me.
