You're dreaming of a long, hot soak in a tub, but the reality of your floor plan means you also need a practical spot for the morning shower. For years, it felt like you had to pick one. A bath or a shower. Luxury or practicality. But you don't have to choose. The shower bath is the clever, space-savvy hero that gives you the best of both.

A shower bath is a bathtub that's been specifically designed to be great for showering in, as well as bathing. Simple. While you can put a shower head over any old tub, these are built for the job. How? They usually have a wider, flatter section at the tap end. This gives you more elbow room and a more stable, secure area to stand. Often this standing area has a slip-resistant finish for extra grip. The whole thing is designed to be paired with a glass screen to stop water from splashing everywhere. It's not a wild new invention, but it's a brilliant solution to a very common headache.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho Are Shower Baths Good For?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eHonestly, they’re one of the most adaptable bits of bathroom kit you can buy.
