We know that the five-year old and under crowd love a good bath. But we are curious about the other 80% of your household residents. Does anyone really use these tubs? The homebuilders seem to think it is up for debate, despite finding one in every master suite.
Here are some from Coppertree, Duffy/Michael Edwards, M/I Homes, Stafford and Compass. We didn’t get a photo of the only iron tub we saw at Romanelli & Hughes’ home – but they seem to be the only one ambitious enough to lug it upstairs to their master.

Great question and it’s about time we challenged this concept. I have purchased three homes in my life, one of which we built from the ground up. In every one of these homes, my wife insisted that we needed a bath tub in the master bath. Unfortunately I have to report that not a single one of them ever got any use, not even once since I don’t have any kids. My opinion is that everyone wants them but very few use them. I personally cannot often afford the time it takes to take a bath and even if I could, I think I would rather be doing something else.
