Question:

What is a garden tub? Considering buying a home with a designer garden tub Dimensions are 36''x72''

Is this a large or small tub?

Answer:

Garden Tubs
Garden tub is a builder/designer term for a bathtub, typically fiberglass or acrylic, with the long sides slightly bowed out, instead of being mostly perpendicular to the short sides. This provides a more spacious tub area in the same, or close to it, area a traditional tub would fit, thus it's great for retrofitting a bathroom. It also typically means there's a step or two on the open side of the tub. Whirlpool jets or other high-end features are NOT considered mandatory for a garden tub... but can often be had for a premium. However, because the term is not an indistry term but a builder/designer term, almost anyone can use the term w/out specification. IOW, get a pic of the alleged garden tub before deciding if that's the home for you. ;) Hope this helps, ? ? ? TX Griff
Its a large oval oversized tub.

It sounds like its maybe a little wider and longer than a regular tub. It probably has water jets in it too. Nice and relaxing!
