Remodeling my 2nd bathroom in 2nd floor, house is 15 years old so i am assuming the bath tub is original when built. when i tapped i get a metal sound so it is either Steel or cast iron. mostly feels like steel to me.although iam not 100% sure thats just my guess

I wanted cast iron but if my current tub is not cast iron i dont want to install cast iron this time because i am afraid of the weight it can put if i dont have Enough supoprt underneith

so i have to choose between steel enamled or acrylic. I am installing kohler toilet and wanted a matching tub but kohler does not make steel tub's.

This bathtub will be heavely used everyday for SHOWER purpose only , not for soaking or bathing.Considering SHOWER Purpose only and easy cleaning.

should i go for steel or Acrylic bathtub.

if steel tub , what brand and model to use ? isee American Standard Princeton Porcelain Enameled Steel for 255$ from lowes . Is it good ?

If Acrylic bathtub, what make and model do you suggest.

budgeting for reasonalble price only , so not looking for an expensive model .

my layout doesnt support me to do a standing shower so that is out of question .
