Japanese Soaking Tub
Do you love the look of a Japanese soaking tub? If so, you will find that these baths are not that difficult to locate throughout North America.
Since they have become immensely popular lately, Japanese soaking tubs or “Ofuros” can be found at nearly every showroom out there. If you are not familiar with this type of bath, the concept is rather simple to explain, while the actual shape of the tub may not be easy to visualize. An Ofuro is shaped like a large gallon bucket, only it is big enough to fit a grown adult. Inside of this bath there is a seat that was meant to be sat upon while bathing. In this manner, those that bathe inside of this bath do so sitting up rather than lying down.

These baths are quite tall, so you will need some type of stepping stool to enter them (they are not recommended for people that have a hard time walking or moving). Also, you can expect to pay around $3000 for this sort of bath. Should you purchase one, you will find that the sole purpose of this bath is to soak and relax, so don’t buy this bath if you want to lounge while submersed in water. In many ways, these are a lot like hot tubs, though most of them only fit one person at a time (and they are much taller).
There are some manufacturers out there that have begun making Japanese soaking tubs out of wood, though you may want to check on the warrantee before buying this type of bath. Those that have decided upon these baths usually love them. If you have an extra bathroom in your home, these baths can be quite relaxing. However, unless you are used to them, you may not want to make this your only bath as it can be rather unusual at first.
