Don't Build A House Without Bathtubs
As an architect, of course I have strong feelings about elements that should never be left out of any home building project. For example, I believe that no home should be built without bathtubs.
I know, bathtubs sounds like a strange thing to be so concerned about, but it is true. I always advise my clients, regardless of their age or the kind of home they are building, to not even consider building a home without bathtubs. When they ask me why I can usually give a pretty strong defense of bathtubs.
Bathtubs do something for a bathroom and for a home that ordinary showers without bathtubs cannot do. Bathtubs give the people of a home the ability to have a quiet place of refuge to relax and unwind at the end of a hard day or week. Think about how great it feels to take a hot shower at the end of a long and cold day. Now think about how much nicer it would be to soak in a hot bathtub for thirty minutes instead. Sounds nice right?
I'm convinced about bathtubs in every home because I am convinced that we are far too busy and far too stressed out as a society. I am convinced that we could all, men, women and children alike, use a little bit of space and quiet away from the rest of the world.
I'll admit that I hadn't utilized the pleasures of bathtubs until just a few years ago when my family and I moved into a new house and my wife insisted upon bathtubs in every room of the house for our kids. I agreed during the building process and within weeks after moving in I was trying out the bathtubs for myself and realizing how truly amazing they were. In all my years of living I had yet to find something as relaxing and truly peaceful as spending time in water filled bathtubs.
So if you are thinking about building a home or just of buying an already built home, do so with caution. Do not let yourself buy or build a home without bathtubs. You have no idea what you're missing if you don't have them. I guarentee you, bathtubs are a necessary element for every house. They add a special space for people to get away, relax and unwind. So don't even think about owning a home without one or more bathtubs.

This stylish unit sits elegantly in our hallway, accommodating more than 8 pairs of shoes. Clear and precise assembly instructions allowed us to have the unit in place in 15 to 20 minutes

First order required a replacement chair as damaged item sent out (no fault of delivery company) excellent customer service in handling problem and very good comms. Unfortunately after the items outside for 1 week there is rust markings already appearing on each piece of set. We originally didn't use a cover but it's certainly required as this obviously isn't even shower proof. Colour as shown in advertisement photos. Pretty bistro set however I wish it was a little more durable.

Shed looks lovely, good size inside. Gets very hot inside, so ventilation could have been better. Also two shelves provided, better if came with six that there are slots for. Apart from that, was very, very unhappy with delivery guys who wanted to leave the shed on the pavement when I had repeatedly requested before delivery by email and phone for shed to be delivered to the garden (semi-detached house). They were ready to take it back to base. When my neighbour came out, they then took the shed to the garden.

Looks great, good quality. Got the bulb from another supplier though as a little pricey! Arrived earlier than expected so very pleased.

Overall a nice looking set for the price. Maybe a little smaller than we thought but still pleased with it.

Absolutely pleased with it! You’d definitely need at least 2 people to put it together quickly (and a hammer and screwdriver) but once it has come together, it is definitely a sturdy piece of furniture

We bought the pillows for our patio furniture first, then had to find a bin to store them. Perfect size for our needs. We selected this one also because it was not that ugly putty color that we see so often; this will be less conspicuous in our setting. This one had been out of stock, but I'm glad I waited for it to become available again. Came back on daily sale in wayfair, so I snapped it up. Speaking of snapping, I should mention that it was super-easy to assemble.

So far so good, from ordering to delivery I had no issues. Building it up wasn't too bad, once you get into the swing of things it gets easier. Had it less than a week so can't comment any further, just that it looks nice, is comfortable, and just what I wanted.

Well designed! Ultra comfortable and surprisingly east to get out of. Easy to assemble as already partly assembled. Very good finish and lovely colour. We highly recommend the Alyson Swift Garden Chair!

Love this ....... it has saved our lovely patio set cushions from gathering mould or being eaten by little furry friends in the garage ..... it was quite easy to build and is really solid.

Very cute but they're extremely small. The picture does not reflect the reality in size. Yes, you had the dimensions posted, but when the handles are added into the height this can be misconstrued for a bigger vessel (which happened in my case). The form is nice, the material is lovely and modern but the vessel size is unrealistic for any planter, even for the tiniest plant. There's no picture to send, I've just packed them away in a drawer because it won't worth the return postage.

Easy to assemble (if you take your time!) and very spacious - exactly what we needed to store a load of cushions for a corner sofa set.

I leaned back and unfortunately caused two stress fractures in the seat back. Will brace the fractures and re-paint the breaks. Otherwise, the pop-up tray is versatile and the bench seat is solid.

Neat. Able to align two alongside each other on window sill without any overhang. Weighty enough to avoid slippage in bad weather.
