    I was looking for a shower-bath bathroom system. My plumber told me that American Standard products were the best, so I decided to go with them. They're a little pricey, but they have a lifetime guarantee. The installation person was very good. He did make a mistake and had to order a part because he cut it too small, but it came and everything was good.

    American Standard did a good job on our house in Florida. But the price of the walk-in bath may have been a little higher than some of the other ones. For two of them, we spent around $30,000. And we've only got to use it a couple of times because we live in Missouri most of the time. We showered there maybe five times since we've had it. We probably could have got something comparable, a little bit cheaper. But when the wife found what she wanted, we signed the deal. We went with a very deluxe thing with the rainfall shower thing plus the separate spray head. It was very nice and luxurious. We got the teak wood sheets that fold out. We had a tub pulled out and had the nice shower put in with the barn door rollers and the heavy glass. My wife went all out on what she wanted. That'll be our retirement home eventually.

    We've been using American Standard for years on replacement parts. So, we knew the company's name well. The customer service reps were good at keeping contact and I have numbers to call if I ever have any issues. The installers did an excellent job. They had protective boots, didn’t track anything, cleaned up after themselves and vacuumed up any dust. We like the walk-in bath and my sister-in-law is probably going to have one similar to it done in her house down there. We probably won't get back down there until maybe Christmas. My wife's got some relatives that are from Canada that are going to be moving down there. And when they do, we're gonna have them stay in our house down there and keep it up and house sit for us. And it settles them until they get established. The walk-in bath is not gonna go unused. Somebody will be using the hallway one daily. But my wife kept the master bedroom. That'll be ours and it’s off-limits.

    The sales rep came over one afternoon and talked to us about the walk-in tub. He showed us different options and we were somewhat interested in it. He got some measurements and left. I called him back a day later and told him that we would like to have the walk-in tub installed. And he came back and got the final measurements. The installers came in and took the old tub out and installed the shower. It meets our needs. We would have had the shower a little bit lower. So I told him to put it at that height. And it was a little bit high for my wife, but we can make it. It's a lot easier for both me and my wife to get in and out.

    I called American Standard for a walk-in tub but that's not what I got. What was told to us was it would be hard to sell the house with a walk-in tub. I bought the product over what the salesman said but his recommendation was wrong. He talked me into getting a shower where my tub was. It's a shower up front and on the end of it where your foot would be sitting in the tub is a shower also. They have a bench that you can sit up. My wife and I were talking about it last week. I was telling her that the shower is beautiful. I like it but we don't have a tub. I have trouble with my back and that was what I wanted the walk-in tub for. Sometimes I like to take a bath or just sit in the tub. Also, I understood the salesman saying that I was supposed to get a hot water heater with the product. But he said he didn't say that.

    The American Standard walk-in bath is amazing. My favorite feature is the shower. It’s nice to sit on a chair in the wall and let the water run all over you. Things are easy to grab and do whatever you wanna do and it’s so easy to clean. But using the walk-in bath is too much for me at my age. I probably would use it more if I was younger, get around more.

    American Standard Walk-in Baths had better quality and competitive pricing. Also, their rep was intense. He was a very good salesperson. It was very interesting. He had a lot of energy and knew what his stuff was. He was, “No, no, no. You need to look at this. If this is what you're going for, you will like this. We'll check this out. This fits in your price range.” He knew everything, knew how to pitch it to us and found what would work with our budget. The installers were great guys. They came in. Within two days, they were done. And I couldn't even tell they were here. They cleaned up. They were polite, quick and efficient. My grandmother and mom love the shower. The price can be a little on the high side, but it makes life much better and is worth the money.

    I liked American Standard Walk-in Baths' product better. The price was the only down part of it. But it was still cheaper than other companies I talked to. Also, American Standard's rep was very knowledgeable. She explained what they offered and what my options were. I had another company come out after her. And I liked her better, so I contacted them, had them come out and do the work. The installers came in and did it all in one day. They had to come back because the drain leaked. And the guy came back the next day and fixed it. My wife can get in and out of the shower without having this 13" step to get into the tub. I enjoy the shower better because I can get in and out of it easier.

    American Standard's rep was great. The installation went very well. They told me it would take two days and I was fine with that, but they finished in one. The work is pristine. It's a good walk-in shower. But it's too narrow and I'm very uncomfortable in there. And it's a shame because I paid so much money for it. I got rid of the tub because it was narrow to hold a seat. This shower holds a seat, but it's too narrow. When I stand up to shower, my elbows hit the wall and door. They should have said, "You've got more space here." I have a big bathroom and the wall extends out that it's on. They could have made it another six inches deeper and not had to do any construction, and they should have thought of that.

    They did a shower for me. The reps were very professional and easy to have in the house. I'm very satisfied and happy with the final product. I had them re-place the grab bars I had because they are better than the ones that came with the American Standard because they are non-slip. That's very important when somebody is disabled or old. Also, the seat in the back is a little larger than the normal one. I would like to have had a longer metal hose to bring the shower head back to my husband better. He can't get it over his shoulder.

    Additionally, somebody up in the line made a mistake in ordering the size of the base. Therefore, it had to be postponed for several months, and they gave me a discount for having to do that. Whoever made the error called me and said it was his fault. He wanted to apologize for it which was very professional. The discount really helped because the full price was a little bit high. Other than that, the quality of the work was good. They took responsibility and helped with the price by giving a discount. So I was more than satisfied.

    It was a good shower install, and the quality of the shower is very good. The only thing I don't like about it is at the bottom of the sliding glass doors, it's plastic. Everything else is top-notch. People would think they would put metal in it. The first day, American Standard had to come in and redo it. I called them, and I had it fixed within a week. Other than that, I was very happy with them and with their calls. They were very helpful getting the piece to fix the issue. The shower is pricey, but it's worth it. I'm very safe and comfortable in it. I've been off my feet for two and a half months now, because I had an operation on my foot. I'm using the handicap part of it too, and I enjoy it. I'd much rather be standing up to take my shower but if I gotta sit, I'd sooner sit in one of theirs.

    I had one other guy come in. But the American Standard salesman was a lot more professional and we got a better price. But the installation took a lot longer than they said it would because the installer wasn't happy with the base for the shower. So we had to order another one that put us off for two weeks. We had a room we couldn't use for two weeks because of that. Wasn't the installer's fault, though. It was whoever supplied him with the parts. I had to get rescheduled for the guy to come back in because he had other work to do. But the tech was a professional. He explained everything before he did it to us. I was satisfied with him. I paid to have somebody else do it. I wanted it done right. We're more than happy with it. My wife really likes it. We use it every day to shower. I especially like the shower that we installed. I like having a wand in the shower.

He knew what he was talking about, gave me information about the company. He had good customer service skills. It was a good experience. Also, the installers got here on time. They told me if there were a couple of situations in my bathroom, what they might have to do to correct them, and to give me a heads-up in the event that they ran into anything. One advised me that it may carry over to the next morning so that I was aware in the event they didn't get done.

    He showed me the product, had me verify that the product was what I had ordered, and introduced themselves when they got here. They were friendly and gave me updates along the way. When they were done, he explained everything that they had completed and how to take care of the shower from there. We went to a walk-in shower from a tub. It came out beautiful. We love it.

    The rep explained everything to me. He stated what the differences were and what it would take to install the shower. The installer was nice. He asked me if it was okay if he stayed late to finish and I said yes. Everything was good but they didn't bring my grab bars. So those haven't been installed yet. The tech also told me before he left that there'd be some places that would bubble and they would need to come back and grout. They haven't done that either but I spoke with the lady with American Standard and she got the information for a work order for that to be done because I could never get the installer back over here.

    A week ago, they sent the grab bar and the caulk here. I spoke to the rep again and asked if somebody was going to come to install the grab bar. She said, "Yes" but that hasn't been done yet. The follow-up is not the best with the installers. I understand the person who installed mine was from New Orleans so I'm sure they don't want to drive for an hour to do a handrail and a little caulking here. But they need to understand that if the customer is not satisfied, either way, they need to send somebody back. I'm not happy with this other delay but other than that, everything's been fine. What I have is great and I love it.

    We live in a rather remote area and there aren't that many people or teams that come out here to do an installation of a walk-in shower, which is a pretty big job, but American Standard had one that did. The sales rep that came out, Jim, was a really nice guy and he seemed to do a complete job. He made sure we knew everything upfront. We didn't have any problems with him but I had some problems with the shower enclosure. We had a shower seat installed and it's one without legs. When we first tried to use it, we couldn't sit in it. It kept slipping out because when I bring the seat down, it's at a downward angle and when I sit on it, it goes at a further downward angle and I slip right out. For the past three months, I've been trying to get them to change the seat and they say they're gonna put one in that has legs so it won't dip down. I don't know how they ever sell a seat like the one we got because there's no way we could use that seat and I can't see how anybody else could either.

    Also, they were supposed to put in a non-slip deck in the shower. The floor was supposed to be non-slip but it slips. We had to put a bath mat down in order to use it. And they didn't do the rip out and install correctly. When they cut our old tub enclosure out, they did not remove the sheetrock that was above. They stripped it down to the studs all the way around underneath that sheetrock, but they put a substitute material over the studs and it was a lot thinner than the existing sheetrock so it didn't meet it square. It goes right in an upward angle. Other than those, I love the glass doors and the shower. The showerhead is beautiful. I'd recommend them to others but I would make sure that they understood that they need to watch the procedure all the way through and make sure it's done right.

    American Standard had been around for a while. So, I know it wasn't a fly-by-night company. I replaced an existing two showers through them. The installation went well. The guy who was working on it did everything right. I kept checking every once in a while. I know that once he turned the water back on, there was something turned on that he should have had off. It did squirt water out in the time it took him to get the water shut back off. Other than that, I don't think they had any issues. There is one little thing on the top that I think I'm gonna have to sand off, but the guy told me he'd come back and do it if I wanted him to. One of the little plastics like a bumper that goes along the edge of the door is not all the way to the bottom where it hits the ground part. So, it stands up about an inch above the door, and it's an inch short on the bottom.

    I tried calling him back right away, but I knew that he was busy because he had told me that he was gonna go do some other job. I just haven't called him back to come and cut it and take a look at it. On the other side, he said, "Oh, you can just pull it off and lower it." And I go, "Nope, not this side." Because this side is glued on. The other side, I could see where he means to pull it off, but there's nothing wrong with that side. It's nothing that really affects anything. I didn't notice it when we did the last walk through because it's right at the top of the glass and I wasn't looking at that. So it's like, "Oh, it's not that biggie."

    So far, I'm happy with the product. Purchasing was easy and everything was explained. The price was fair. I had someone else give me an estimate, too. They were gonna do more things, but they were forcing me to go out and buy all the hardware. So, everything equaled out the same. They were gonna do the floor in my bathroom, and that would have made it the same price. But then by the time I go out and buy the things they wanted me to buy, it would have made it the same or more.

    The sales rep was very polite and thorough in what she explained to me. The installer was very good. He had two more people with him and it took them half a day to install the American Standard walk-in bath the first time. Then, they came back to check a couple more things at different times to make sure everything was okay and got everything the way I wanted it.

    When I got in the walk-in bath and turned it on, the shower head came right into my face. I didn't realize to take it down and hold it to get it regulated. But other than that, it was fine. My partner seems to enjoy the walk-in bath very well. He especially likes the chair because he can sit down and wash his feet and legs well with it. It was getting hard for us to step over the tub and get in and out of the tub, which was why I replaced my tub so that we would have just to walk in. My partner is getting knee surgery and a knee replacement and I'm looking forward to seeing how well it's going to work at that time.

    The sales rep was very businesslike and extremely knowledgeable about the products and the procedures. The installation team worked on the walk-in bath and did it in a day. They came back the next day to finish a few small details but all the major work was done. They asked me not to use the shower and I let it set for two days to let the sealant cure. The walk-in bath has a hand shower and a showerhead. When I first started, I was turning on the wrong one. But once you learn which way the handle goes, it comes on normally. I love that as it's running, you can select how warm the water is.

    When the guys were here, they didn't have a valve on the showerhead and the one that I had had on there wouldn't work. But it wasn't a big deal. Everything that you get like that is made in China, which I don't necessarily like, but it's a nice valve and it cost me $15. I installed it and it works perfectly. I can turn it off, soap up and then turn it back on. Because once you get the water to your likable temperature, you don't want to have to readjust everything. So far, when I turn the little valve up on it by the showerhead. It's always come back to the same temperature. So, it’s a plus. I'm 76 years old and twice getting out of that shower tub, I slipped. It didn't hurt me but I fell. I decided that I was gonna do something about it. This one has no tripping hazard anymore, which was the main reason I changed it out. I’d recommend American Standard. Their product is excellent and the price is in line with everything else I found.

    American Standard has its own plumbing line, which I've used for years and the sales representative wasn't a jerk like most of them are. The installers came, did all the work, answered all my questions and cleaned up after themselves. I absolutely, positively could not be happier. I was expecting it to be a total nightmare. Every time somebody comes and I ask for any work done, they scratch their heads and say they’ve got so much more problems involved. But the two gentlemen did nothing of that. All they did was do the work perfectly.

    My wife loves the shower. I'm very familiar with plumbing fixtures and with do-it-yourself home improvements. This work was just a little above the quality of something I could do myself, so I didn't wanna try to do it myself. But I've checked out all the shower doors that are out there and the different kinds of fixtures, and so far, I've been very happy. Everything seems to be sturdy, heavy and of good quality. Everything was great. It was absolutely a perfect experience for my wife and me. We've lived here 35 years and the house has had a lot of home improvements and it's probably the best experience we've had with home improvement ever. I'm a 77-year-old disabled veteran and I had a tub-shower combination and it was very hard for me to get in and out of. And the VA provided about 50% of the money to get this taken care of. I had to pay them the whole thing but they reimbursed me. And it's made life a whole lot easier for me.

    After spending $24,000 to have two new showers installed in my condo when one of the doors developed a leak in one corner they would not return my calls when you called the service department. When you called sales and complained enough they said they would escalate it and I would hear from them in 48 hours. That's been a month ago.

    American Standard called me and I thought I was making the appointment with another company, but I got hooked up with them. Their guy was very nice and professional. He went through the stuff and we decided to get the walk-in shower. The installation took was two days. The installer was a younger guy and he was very nice. He kept things very clean. It went in smoothly.

    At first, I didn't know how to regulate the water. The guy showed my husband and not me. I called the guy to tell him that I couldn't get the water the right temperature. And then my husband showed me the right way. We didn't have any problems then. It went fine. My mother is 92 and the reason for putting in the walk-in shower was mainly to help give her a shower in a safe manner. My mother likes it and she takes her shower.

    American Standard sent me a thing and asked what things I would change. One thing would be, it needs a water control right by the side the seat where there is a second shower hose. Otherwise, you have to get up and go up to the one on the wall. If you're handicapped, you might be able to sit there and take your own shower, but you won't be able to control the water. If you can't stand by yourself, then that makes it hard. Usually, somebody's helping you, like I help my mom. But still, it would be nice to have one. 'Cause even I would have to get up and go and regulate the water before I get back down to where I'm helping my mother. The only other thing is the shower curtains that American Standard gave us are based on the height of the shower rod. They're about 12 inches too long. Now, I had to cut off a foot of curtain.
