How to choose a acrylic bath and what to look for?

When choosing an acrylic bath in the price/quality ratio, you should pay attention to the following basic characteristics:

• production technology - Forming makes cheaper and faster, such models consist of 85-90% ABS, which slightly reduces the overall performance. It is difficult to achieve a smooth surface on such baths. Cast acrylic produces smooth surfaces, the tubs themselves are more durable and easy to care for;
• the thickness of acrylic - The thicker the layer, the longer the bath will last. It is better to give preference to models with a thickness of at least 5-6 mm, such options will last up to 15-17 years;
• reinforcement - Reinforced layer, applied over the acrylic coating, should not deform when you press by hand on the walls and the bottom of the tub. There should also be no chips, puddles, cracks or rust;
• dimensions - The size preference depends on the size of the bathroom. Optimal sizes are considered 70 cm from floor level, 50 cm deep, 80 cm wide and 150 to 180 cm long.
