Does a deep 60 x 30 cast iron tub exist?
Comments (7)I looked at a million tubs that would fit into our 60x30 space. Regarding deeper cast iron 60x30 tubs, there are two that I know of: 1) The tub you were kinda mentioning - Porcher Nouveau from the Ardennes Collection. Unfortunately this tub has since been discontinued, but you may be able to find someone who still has stock. The tub has a height of 19.6" (vs Villager 14") and an overflow height of 12.8" (vs Villager 8.6"), however it is a pricey tub (almost 4 times the cost of the Villager)...so you would have to decide if the extra depth is worth the extra cost. 2) Toto FBY1515LP - This tub has a height of 14.7" and an overflow height of 10.5", but again is much more than the Kohler Villager (almost 3 times the cost) so again, you would have to decide if the 2 inches of deeper water is worth another $600+ dollars. On a side note, it isn't necessarily what I would call deeper (although it is a half inch deeper), but the Kohler Bellwether is a nice looking tub. Has a plainer/simpler apron. Reasonable price, but a little pricer than the Villager...but again, isn't going to give you that deep tub you are looking for. Good Luck. I would have to say selecting the tub has the been the toughest decision on our hall bathroom remodel....See More60 x 30 tub recommendations
Comments (8)Its an alcove tub which will be a combo tub and shower, and I think the weight etc was part of the issue. He also said his experience is people going against replacing with cast iron. We have a 40 yo house and on other remodels there have been surprises, so that might be another concern of his. Its also for our kids bathroom, so not looking necessarily for a super high end tub. Likely it will be used a lot more for showering than actual bathing. I came across a few that seemed decent, and within our price range: Kohler Expanse (no available glass doors for this tub) Kohler Archer Mirabelle Edenton There was another at Lowes that was quite a bit cheaper, but a glass door is available with it, which is appealing: American Standard Saver....See MoreHELP!!!

Comments (3)We ordered an MTI whirlpool airbath combo tub from tubzlady.com and in the process found a very knowledgeable and helpful person named Koren who patiently answered our many questions. I'm not affiliated with the site but, since we had such a positive buying experience, I do recommend them. Their site is very easy to search by size and it has quite a few 60 x 30 tubs.

Comments (10)I just installed the Mirabelle Edenton 30x60x20. It's a great tub (especially for the money). I got an air bath, which you may not want and paid about $1850 delivered with the drain in white. I believe the price quoted above is about accurate for the regular tub. It also has a modern, attractive skirt and better looking acrylic than some other tubs in the price range. They are only sold at Ferguson. The Edenton is large inside. I'm 5'11" and I can fully stretch my legs in it. There were only two other tubs that I could fit in and this one is bigger and deeper. If you want to check it out, my remodel is linked below.
