Boca
Boca custom-makes its walk-in tubs in the state of Georgia. Unlike most companies with several models and various different features, the company custom-builds each model according to the customer’s choices. It provides a list of standard features, and homeowners can choose the tub size and any additional elements they desire.
Because each tub is custom-made upon ordering, Boca doesn’t list pricing information on its website. There’s also no mention of financing options. You can contact the company directly for more details on costs.

What Boca customers say
Boca's customers write glowing reviews of its customer service, tub safety, pain relief, accessibility and low step threshold. At the time of publishing, there are few complaints about Boca's tubs. Of the average star ratings, a couple of customers expressed a dislike of the 90-degree-angle seat and the slippery texture of the floor.
The installation team was great and very pleasant to have worked here. They explained everything in detail and left their phone numbers so if we would have any problems at all, we could call them and they would be right back.”

Hydro Dimensions
Hydro Dimensions provides homeowners with specialty tubs, including walk-in tubs. There are 16 models to choose from and several optional add-ons. Homeowners can select aromatherapy, chromotherapy, custom jet placement, massage therapy, heated backrest options and more.
Hydro Dimensions also offers customizable shower curtains, removable headrests and wall kits to help style your bathroom. The company has models for wheelchair users and bariatric bathers. The website has no mention of financing. Hydro Dimensions' walk-in tub options are extensive, but here's some info on a few of its popular walk-in tub models:
- HD Series 2645: This tub is designed to fit in smaller spaces. It has a flex door design and an extension panel for wall-to-wall installation.
- HD Series 3060L: This model is a conventional-style tub with a door to prevent the user from stepping over the side. Instead of sitting, bathers can lie down as in a standard bath.
- HD Specialty Series 3252W: This tub is designed for those with limited mobility. A wide, outward-swinging door makes for a more effortless wheelchair transfer.
What Hydro Dimensions customers say
Happy customers of Hydro Dimensions frequently mention pain relief, bathing safety and high-quality jets. Some reviewers had trouble removing the drain stop, while others had complaints about the quality of the installation.
We had the best experience possible. The two installers, Eric and Jose, installed the tub in two days, and we hardly knew they were there. They completed the install and were sure that we knew everything about the tub before leaving. The tub itself is absolutely awesome.”
