We are replacing our 27 year old fiberglass tub surround with a new tub and a tile surround. It's the guest bathroom that is used by our kids who are now grown and do not take baths anymore so we mostly use it as a shower. I have no idea what kind of tub and or brand to get. Our plumber told us to get an enameled steel tub but the two showrooms he sent us to said they did not have any and pointed us to acrylic or vikryl. Both places quoted us on the Sterling Ensemble for the vikryl. For the acrylic one quoted the Kohler Archer for $950 and the other the Signature Hardware Old Mirabelle for $600. I think we are leaning toward acrylic but wondering if the Kohler is worth the extra money or the SH is just as good. If we do go with enameled steel like our plumber recommended, is there a good one someone could recommend? Would probably have to go to a big box store to get that one since the two showrooms we went to did not carry them. I am so confused at this point so looking for any advice I can get. I just want a tub that will last, is easy to clean and will not yellow like our old fiberglass one did.
Thank You!!
