American Standard Cambridge 5-Feet Bath Tub with Left-Hand Drain

I ordered the 5' white right hand drain from a local supplier for my bathroom remodel. I bought this tub because it had a deeper water depth (14" to overflow) than our previous tub, and it didn't have some hideous design on the side. I also have no use for an indoor whirlpool tub, as we have an outdoor hot tub, and as far as I know, it's still not considered wise to use bath oils in a whirlpool.

In having read reviews of other American Standard products, I knew that their White was *not* stark white, which is good, because I really didn't want stark white.

Our plumber said that due to the years of rotten economy in our state and the abrupt halt of new home construction, his distributors were only stocking the least-expensive tubs because that's what was selling. Getting one of these would take at least 3 weeks, even though I gave him 4 different models as possibilities. We didn't have that much time due to tight scheduling with our drywall installer, so I started searching the internet for a source. Turned out our first choice was available on Amazon at a good price AND with a delivery date that fit our schedule! (Who knew?) The tubs arrived a day before expected, and we love them. Our plumber was very impressed with the quality and...Read more
