Which Bathtub is Right for Your Home?

So, you’re thinking about getting a new bathtub. Exciting, right? But let’s be honest—walking into a store or scrolling online can feel like stepping into a bathtub jungle. Pedestal tubs here, claw foot tubs there, acrylic ones everywhere… and suddenly you’re asking yourself, “Which bathtub is right for me?”  The fact is, not every tub is built the same.. Some give off that classy vintage vibe, others scream modern luxury, and then there are those tubs that are made just for soaking your stress away after a long day. Today, let’s break down the best options out there—so you can find the one that fits your home, your style, and your relaxation goals. This isn’t going to be a boring technical guide. Nope. Think of this as a friend walking you through Dreamwerks’ bathtub collection—sharing the real scoop on what’s stylish, what’s comfy, and what might just be perfect for your home. 1. Pedestal Bathtub – The Statement Piece If you want your bathroom to feel like a grand hotel, the pedestal bathtub is where it’s at. This is a stylish bathtub that stands tall (literally) on a base, giving off an elegant and modern vibe. Unlike a claw foot bathtub, which has decorative legs, the pedestal sits on a full platform. Why people love it: Bold and classy design that becomes the centerpiece of your bathroom Works great in both modern and traditional homes Easy to clean around the base (because no little legs to worry about) Pairs beautifully with sleek chrome or matte black fixtures If you’ve been dreaming of luxury bathtubs that make your bathroom look like something out of a design magazine, this one deserves your attention. 2. Acrylic Claw Foot Bathtub – The Vintage Charmer Now, let’s talk about one of the most famous tubs in history: the claw foot bathtub. If you’ve ever seen an old movie with someone sipping champagne while surrounded by bubbles, chances are they were in one of these. The claw foot is a timeless design, but modern versions (like our acrylic claw foot bathtubs) take it up a notch by adding lightweight, durable material that’s easy to maintain. Why people love it: Classic charm mixed with modern comfort Acrylic makes it lightweight but still sturdy Available in different sizes, so it fits big and small bathrooms Decorative claw feet can match your bathroom style—chrome, brass, or black This tub is more than a bath—it’s pure luxury. Imagine sinking in with a book, soft music, maybe even some candles. Yeah, that’s the vibe. 3. Acrylic Flatbottom Oval Bathtub – The Relaxation Master Sometimes, you just want to soak. No frills, no fuss. That’s where the Acrylic Flatbottom Oval Tub comes in. Designed to give you comfort from head to toe, this soaker bathtub has smooth curves that hug your body while you let go of stress. Why people love it: Oval shape is ergonomic and super cozy Acrylic material = easy to clean and keeps water warm longer Freestanding style lets you set it anywhere in your bathroom Perfect for long soaking sessions If you’re the kind of person who dreams about weekend spa days, this is the bathtub that brings the spa right into your home. 4. Acrylic Rectangular Flat-bottom Bathtub – Sleek and Modern For those who like clean lines and a modern aesthetic, the rectangular flatbottom bathtub is a winner. Unlike oval tubs that have a soft feel, this one brings sharp sophistication into your bathroom. Why people love it: Sleek, boxy design that fits modern bathrooms Spacious inside (yes, you can stretch out!) Easy to install in smaller spaces Made of acrylic—durable, lightweight, and stylish This is for the person who says, “I want my bathroom to look like a luxury hotel suite.” It’s practical, but oh-so-stylish. 5. Freestanding Soaker Bathtub – The Relaxation King The freestanding soaker bathtub is the superstar of the bathtub collection. If you want pure relaxation, this is it. It doesn’t need to be built into a wall or corner—it stands on its own like a piece of art. Why people love it: Ultimate comfort for soaking Creates a spa-like atmosphere in your bathroom Versatile designs—oval, rectangular, or pedestal-inspired Pairs beautifully with floor-mounted faucets This one is for serious bath lovers. You know who you are. 6. Acrylic Pedestal Bathtub – The Modern Twist Last but not least, the acrylic pedestal bathtub gives you the best of both worlds: pedestal elegance with the lightweight, durable benefits of acrylic. Why people love it: Bold design with a lightweight build Easy to clean and maintain Comfortable for long soaks Perfect mix of style and practicality Think of this as the stylish cousin of the traditional pedestal tub—modern, yet timeless.
