Do you prefer showers or baths?

(This thread was inspired by a recent spam thread that has been deleted.)

I don't have a bathtub, but when I did, I almost always took showers.

The only time I took a bath was when I was sick.

I don't get sick very often, but I am sick right now, so I wish I had a bathtub.

Do you prefer showers or baths?

Canā€™t remember the last bath I took. Sitting in dirty water turns me off.

Yeah, I agree, but when I'm sick, taking a warm bath is good for my sinuses.

When I used to have a bathtub, I would shower off after my bath to be cleaner.

I just never liked the whole experience. I stay out of water in general. Pools, ocean etc.

Depends on the company :wink:

Yeh, as Seinfeld called it, ā€œa bacteria frappeā€.

Thatā€™s why for me, itā€™s a shower, or if I go for a soak, itā€™s bath then shower.

I actually just installed a garbage disposal in my shower. The latest Clarkman model.

Iā€™ve never understood the appeal of a bath if a hot shower is available. I know many people find it relaxing but I donā€™t enjoy it at all.

Japanese people shower first, then take a bath. The bath water remains clean and can be reheated for the next time. They also have these unibody whole-bathroom units, no joints, no edges, no silicon, just one continuous smooth surface super easy to clean. In my opinion, they have the best bathing system.

The last time I ever took a bath, I was a toddler, so Iā€™m biased towards showers :smiley: Iā€™d like to try and soak in a tub once (after showering myself clean like the Japanese do) to know what it feels like.

Shower, all the way. Took out the tub from the master bath and had a shower stall put in. The other tub hasnā€™t been used in years.

Hope you get feeling better quickly.

Thanks!

I feel better today than yesterday, so I hope I continue on this path of improvement.

Worked in construction for a while and hell or high water got the work done. Come home soaking wet or a sheet of ice all over. A bath helped to restore the lost heat and slumber was deep.

When I renovated my bathroom, just so conveniently a 6ā€™ acrylic unit fitted between the walls. Although seldom used now (bathwise), I enjoy the extra space (36ā€ versus 30ā€) in showering.

Behavioural conditioning: having an active weekday lifestyle I wouldnā€™t think to soak in the tub much; on a bleak and rainy Sunday, I may decompress with some music, a headrest, and of course some aromatic bubblyā€¦

When I built my house, I bought a stock house plan. It called for a tub in the master bath. Instead I bought a fiberglass base and surround the size of a traditional tub. Low threshold and roomy. Love it. The tub in the full bath gets used to bath the grandchildren or my wifeā€™s plants.

Wish my house has an awesome view like this.

We have a pretty good view, but we don't have a bunch of large windows or glass doors like in that photo.

We usually go outside to enjoy the view the best.

Dangā€”-How did you get a picture of my Bathroom

Showers for speed and daily use.
Bath on rare occasions and time to spare.

That sure is tranquil. You donā€™t need curtains.
