In modern bathroom decoration, bathtubs are no longer just cleaning tools, but also an important carrier for relaxing the body and mind and improving the quality of life. Ceramic bathtubs, in particular, have become the preferred choice of many families due to their natural and warm texture, good heat preservation and durability. So, among the many brands and styles, how do you choose a ceramic bathtub that really suits you? The following article will analyze the key points of purchase in detail to help you make a calm decision.
1. Clarify the size of the space used
The first step in purchasing a bathtub is to determine the size and installation method based on the spatial layout of the bathroom. Common bathtub sizes range from 1.2 meters to 1.8 meters, and the width and depth also vary greatly.
- Recommended choice for small apartments: 1.2~1.5 meters freestanding or wall-mounted bathtub, which saves space and is flexible to use.
- For larger spaces: Large-capacity bathtubs over 1.6 meters, or even double bathtubs, to improve comfort.
When measuring the dimensions, you need to fully consider the location of the water pipes, drains, door opening direction and the distance from other bathroom equipment to ensure that enough space for movement and installation is reserved.
2. Pay attention to material quality
The surface of ceramic bathtubs is usually glazed, and the core material is mostly high-temperature fired pottery or porcelain clay. High-quality ceramic bathtubs have the following characteristics:
- Smooth and flat surface: not easy to get dirty, easy to clean;
- Glaze surface is uniform and firm: scratch-resistant and wear-resistant, not easy to fall off or change color;
- Low water absorption: dense structure, moisture-resistant and crack-resistant;
- Good thermal insulation performance: bath water stays warm for a long time.
It is recommended to choose products with brand guarantee and check whether they have relevant quality inspection reports or certification marks.
3. Choose the right bathtub style
Common styles of ceramic bathtubs include:
1. Freestanding bathtub
It is flexible to install and has beautiful appearance. It is suitable for bathrooms with relatively ample space and can highlight the overall sense of grade.
2. Built-in bathtub
Suitable for installation against a wall or in a corner, it has a stronger sense of integrity, saves space, and is easy to match with tiles or wood finishes.
3. One-piece ceramic bathtub (with skirt)
The shape is regular, easy to clean and maintain, and suitable for most families.
The choice of style needs to be considered in combination with decoration style, usage habits and cleaning convenience.
4. Pay attention to the details of drainage and accessories
A good ceramic bathtub, in addition to appearance and material, its drainage system and hardware accessories cannot be ignored.
- The drain outlet position should be coordinated with the bathroom floor drainage system and should not be too high or too far away;
- It is recommended to use copper or stainless steel for the drain valve, which is corrosion-resistant and has good sealing performance;
- Optional anti-slip texture, handrails, anti-overflow device and other designs can improve safety and comfort.
5. Brand and after-sales service
Buying a ceramic bathtub is not only a choice of the product itself, but also a choice of the brand service guarantee. Good quality brands usually provide the following guarantees:
- Reasonable warranty period (usually 1 to 5 years);
- Installation guidance or professional installation services;
- Timely response to after-sales maintenance;
- Accessories are replaceable and easy to purchase.
It is recommended to give priority to brands with production experience and customer reputation to avoid unnecessary trouble in later use.
Choosing a suitable ceramic bathtub can not only enhance the overall style of the bathroom, but also add a sense of comfort and ritual to daily life. I hope that the above suggestions can help you avoid detours during the purchasing process and find the ideal bathtub that truly suits you.
