    I like Independent Home's price and the way their products looked. We got a shower and I really like that I can just walk in and out. I got a shower curtain on, and sometimes it's hard to keep it dry outside the shower. But other than that, if after I ever get used to it and figured it out better, I'll probably be able to handle that, too. I really like the shower. It's easy to get in. It doesn't seem to put me out as much as getting into a regular bathtub.

    Independent Home's salesperson was really nice to me. Also, the installers were great. They were really easy-going guys, and I couldn't have gotten any better than those guys. They cleaned up everything really well after they got done. It was like they were never even here. They also hauled the old junk away. It was really a good deal.

    My husband is disabled. When Independent Home had called me, I had an interest, so they came out and talked to us. They were more affordable than the others plus they offered financing, which helped. I had no problems talking to the reps. They answered everything straightforward. Also, the installers were good, professional and well-prepared. They knew what they were doing and we were pleased. We love the walk-in shower that we got. It is very accessible for my husband to get in and out of. It’s roomier, it feels a whole lot better than what we had, and we like all the features on it. I would highly recommend Independent Home to others. Independent Home delivers what they promise and things are done in a timely manner.

    I've been looking around for walk-ins for a couple of months but I'm handicapped and I can't get around that easy so the sales rep came here and told me about Independent Home and then set me a price on it. I got a walk-in shower where the showerhead slides up and down on one end and with the extension. It has a fold-down seat to sit on and I can pull my wheelchair right up to it. He was good, but he overstated what he was gonna deliver. I was supposed to get hand bars when I talked to him but I didn't get it, so I had to buy them myself and the safety bars to hold on to when I'm in there. It was also a shame that Independent didn't have the shower that I wanted. But the installation team was great. They came and they seemed to have done a good job. Everything seemed to be sturdy. They cleaned up after themselves and hauled away the old. I'm happy with Independent because it's really what I needed.

    My husband and I, and our children have been talking about ways to handle getting older. We had been talking about showers and we were looking into the possibilities of changing that part of the bathroom. So when we were approached by an Independent Home rep, it made good sense to look more seriously. There was nothing that we could find that was negative so we went with them. We probably would not have done it, have we not talked to our kids before. We have been encouraged by them to think about changes because we're on this foot level house and we're getting older. We always shower so we need it.

    The installation team worked very fast. However, one of the ceramic tile on the floor got damaged in their removal of the other tub. And the cluster board, the back-end wall brick has a hole in the wall, which does not make us thrilled. That was disappointing. It's a major job to change that floor and there was no effort to replace it or even fix the hole in the wall. My son's coming for Thanksgiving. He may be able to fix it himself or we can figure out what we're gonna do. Other than that, the most we have is settling cracks. Overall, both my husband and I are enjoying the shower so far. We don't have to worry about being able to get over into the bathtub itself. We feel it's much safer. I'd tell others to do their research and look at what the companies offer.

    I purchased a Walk-in Shower a few weeks ago and wanted to let you know I am very pleased with this shower. The quality is excellent and it will add value to our home. I am 76 and was starting to have a problem getting in my tub shower. The new walk in is so easy to get in. I was impressed with your company when the day before the installation, a gentlemen arrived with the vanity top I had ordered. He told me the vanity was not ready when the truck was delivered, so he drove all the way from Kansas to Texarkana, Texas to bring it to me so that when the installer came, it would be here and the installation would not be delayed. Mike **, the specialist who sold me the product, was very knowledgeable and easy to talk with!

    I had fallen on the shower a couple of times and my wife had also. We are getting up in age and so we needed something that we could just step in and take a shower as opposed to keep stepping up in the tub and taking a chance on falling. We ended up getting a walk-in shower from Independent Home and it was outstanding. We are enjoying it. We got it for the future and now I do not need the wheelchair ramp. Their team did great with the installation, too.

    I received a call from Independent Home and spoke with a gentleman who set up an appointment with us. He came by and we had a discussion. At my age, I had fallen a couple of times in the tub. I have bad knees and hip so I didn't want anything to sit down on. It might have been difficult getting in and out so I wanted a shower and it was exactly what I was looking for. He presented a walk-in type shower. He said that they could handle everything, and it worked out fine.

    I enjoy my walk-in shower. It is safe and I really like the idea of the walk-in. It has an onyx type of material that they applied and it has a bench inside. Independent Home's workmen came and installed everything. It took them a little longer than required but they stuck it out and did such quality work. We had a couple of little points that were kinda sticky, but the gentleman that was in charge of the crews listened to it and he made everything right. They made everything work and I'm very satisfied with it.

    My husband had a medical procedure that required a walk-in shower. Our old shower had an 8-inch step-up into the shower and that wasn't gonna work. When I went online and investigated, somehow my name came up on Independent Home's list and they called me. We made an appointment with the salesperson to come and talk with us and make a pitch, we got the information from them and it was something that could be done rather quickly. My husband was tired of having to try to get from a wheelchair onto a shower chair into a tub, and I was tired of trying to step up into the shower because I have a bad knee. They met our needs and did it in a timely fashion and at a reasonable cost.

    The installers from Independent Home were great. We had them install a shower and they were professional. They cleaned up after themselves, answered all of our questions and showed us how to use the devices. The shower's easy to get into and out of, it's safe and has lots of grab bars on it to facilitate my husband getting in. It has a shower chair that was installed at the same time. Everything works fine and we love it.

    I've got a bad back and my wife has bad knees, and we could hardly use the bathroom that we had. We couldn't get in and out of our bathtub without kicking the hell out of the shower door rail. It was really a miserable situation. Independent Home called me on the telephone and said they'd sent somebody out to show me their products. Mike, the in-home sales representative showed us their products. They started out with a $16,000 amount and I'm not sure what it came down to. The guy told me there would never be any interest on the loan. Then I decided to go for it because I couldn't get any of my friends to help me do the work that I needed to do.

    I would like to emphasize that there is absolutely nothing wrong with their product. It’s a very nice shower enclosure and I'm very grateful to be able to use it. I'm absolutely satisfied with what I've got. My problem with Independent Home is they turned around and defrauded me by selling my loan to Synchrony Bank which has the highest interest rate I have ever seen. If I miss a payment, the rate will jump to 26.99% interest.

    I was totally convinced that there would be absolutely no interest and that the $12,000 will be all that I would pay after I paid my $1,000 down. They didn't say a single word to me about selling my note. They didn't point it out in the contract. I could have gotten this bathroom renewal for $6,000 right here in town, but I will have paid $18,000 for a 24-square foot bathroom. And all they did was take the tub out, replace the flooring, put in a new drain, and put in the shower enclosure. The only upside of it is the loan is uncollateralized. In other words, my house is not in danger of being taken if I renege on the note.

    I think my situation is exploitation of the elderly. My house isn't hardly worth $40,000. It's basically a frame house with metal siding and a bad roof. For that kind of money, I should have had a real tiled floor, installed a 36-inch door and have replace the sink that they broke its pedestal during installation. I should have gotten a new toilet too. They just said, "Well, that wasn't part of the order." If a friend would ask me about Independent Home, I'd tell them to call somebody else first. They may be getting a good product and a quick change but they should think if it is worth it for the rest of their lives.

We got a walk-in shower from Independent and it’s nice. It's got a seat in it where we can sit down. I can stand, but I do have the seat if I need it and it's got a handheld thing we use for the feet. It also has a real shower overhead. The installers were polite and cleaned up really good.

    I have been looking online for different types of bathrooms and someone called from Independent Home and set up an appointment. He came somewhere from Texas over to meet with us. We saw the product and it was very good material that they were going to use so we decided to go with them. The salesman was very nice. He knew about his product and suggested different things. We had to narrow everything down to what we wanted since there were many ways that it could have been done.

    I decided against a walk-in bathtub. We would have to wait for the door to be open and sit there and wait for the water to fill then wait two minutes for it to drain which was not gonna work for us so we did the shower that was only about 1-1/2-inch step-in. Also, we installed a tall toilet and then a bench with several grab bars.

    The people who came and did the installation did excellent work. Everything came in and they installed the shower in one day. They repositioned the showerhead to where the water could be turned on and off by someone sitting on the bench. And then, a hand-held showerhead that some part of it could be taken apart and then used just as a hand-held. It could also be put back up at the top and it could come out from the front up to the top of the shower. I would recommend Independent Home. I would tell others that it's a very good product and that they will stand behind their product.

He was from Texas and he gave me a price to take the old one out and put the new one in and a new floor for $13,000.

The quality of work done was good and I watched them as they went along. I got a walk-in shower with sliding glass doors with the seat on one end. We just got the hose one on the front so when you're sitting on a stool, you can turn the water on and off right there and you don't have to get up.

    We got a walk-in shower from Independent Home and had them take out an existing tub. We didn't want any glass and other companies want glass in so we ended up with Independent Home. Everything went nice when I dealt with the rep and they seemed to be upfront, except for the financing. The only thing I disliked about the whole outfit was signing me up for another credit card. I already had a credit card for that bank. It was a Sam's card but it was empty and could've used it instead of signing me up for 27% in the other credit card. They didn't tell me what they were doing and I just thought they were going to give us a loan through the company. I didn't know until this last couple of weeks ago. I just paid it off the first time I got the bill and saw the 27% on there. It was demeaning.

    But the product seems to be good and the installer did a great job. He was professional and I could tell he did everything perfectly. I was afraid that there had been some leakage in the walls and might have a mildew problem but he showed me there was none. And we had to build another wall in there because the tub is way too big and deep and it was too much for my wife and me to step into anymore. I'm very satisfied with it overall.
