I got the soaker from Independent Home and I enjoy every bit of it. There was another model and I called it bubbles but I wasn’t going to be using that too often and it cost more money. So, I just decided I needed a tub. The sales rep I worked with was very nice and very courteous. I couldn’t ask for a better person. The installers were very nice, too. They cleaned up everything and I couldn’t ask for a better deal than that because they didn’t leave anything undone. It was beautiful in there when they got through and I was so amazed at how they got it in there because my bathroom was a little small. And it looked just like it belong in there. Both the man and his son who put it in there were very professional and I wouldn't choose any other company than these people that I had.
Thanks for your recommendation and for choosing us for your project. Have a great day!

From the start my wife and I were treated with respect and understanding. Shasta and Sandra came out to our home and explained everything clearly. They both answered all our questions. The schedule was made with us in mind. On the day of install Sandra wasn’t able to come but Shasta came alone and she did a phenomenal job. From start to finish she was very professional. We have never had a contractor come into our home and clean up after themselves like Shasta did. Her workmanship excelled our strictest expectations. Our one and only complaint is that we don’t have another home to put another walk in tub in. All of our friends and family that have seen the completed job are extremely satisfied with the end product. Several have expressed interest in having one installed in their home. We have already used the tub and are truly satisfied. Many thanks to Shasta and all the folks that made this install a breeze. David and Patricia
Hi David,
Thanks for your kind words and we will be sure to relay this message to Shasta and the team. We are happy you are enjoying the spa and that you are truly satisfied. Have a super day!

I lost my leg a couple of years ago and we needed to get a tub that was stable enough for me to get in and out of with one leg because I might lose the other one too. So I started looking on Facebook and we called Safe Step but they wanted quite a bit of money. And Medicare really don't help people like me that have prosthetics. So, we couldn't afford them. I started looking more and I set up an appointment with Independent Home. Their sales rep came out and was telling me what the price would be. His name was Patrick and he was very nice and very informative. He told us to call him if we had questions or anything. We've called him several times and he called us right back. I also liked the way he presented the tub and how he was so professional. He was very helpful to us because we did have questions, so we really enjoyed meeting him.
Aside from that, there's a lifetime warranty on the tub. Plus, we knew we'd be moving and when I asked him what was going to happen with my tub if I have to move, he said they will move it for free and reinstall it wherever I go. So because of that and the price, we went with them. Their rep came out with the paperwork while they were installing the tub. My husband and I filled all that out, and they weren't pressuring us about this or that as far as price. And they worked with us really well about getting the old tub out and getting the new one in. So, it was a good experience all around. So far, everybody wants to come in and see my tub and I've recommended it to five people who have all been at my house. One of our friends also wants to come and see it. She's at the beach right now but I have told her all about it and I gave her Patrick's number. When she gets back, she intends on calling him.

I decided to get a walk-in bath from Independent Home and their sales rep was very nice. The installers did a very nice job, too and I cannot complain about the workmanship. But I asked for tan in the paneling to put on the walls and what I got is yellow, which doesn't fit the room. The tub and my ceramic floors are tan. And my sinks are all white, so I feel sorry now that I didn't go with the white. I called and told them about it, but it's been three weeks now and I haven't heard back from them. So, I don't know if they plan on doing anything or not. Other than that, I like the convenience of the tub and I enjoy soaking in it. I'm elderly, and I cannot get down in a tub and soak. If I get down, you got to call 911 to put me up. But my favorite feature is I can sit in a tub now.

We got a phone call from someone that wanted to set up an appointment, so I set one up. The salesperson came and talked to us for several hours and we made the decision to go ahead and get a walk-in tub. I'm 73 and I've had two back operations and my husband is 70 and has knee issues. When you're this age, there are aches and pains. Because of my back operations, my balance is a little off, and it makes me nervous in the shower. We went with the Royal model. It has the lights that change color. It's the hydrotherapy tub.
The installers were great. I liked them very much. They were very helpful and they did a great job fitting the tub in. They showed us all of the different buttons we could push and how to adjust things. We did not get the shower attachment. It came with it, but we didn't want it because the showerhead comes up and out and it can wash my hair easily. The tub has the water and air, and the different colors. If you're sitting in it for a while and the water cools down a little bit, there's a button you can push that heats the water up again.

My husband had done some research looking for a walk-in tub. He is an amputee and he felt that's the type he wanted. The sales rep that we dealt with was good. He was informative and he told us everything about the tub. The installation went very well and my husband loves the tub. But on my poiny, I'm a shower-type person and I don't particularly like to sit to do it. So it's a little confining for me.

I’ve been living by myself and I'm on oxygen. I was having trouble taking a shower and I couldn’t stand that long. A walk-in spa was something that I felt that I needed. The rep from Independent Home presented really well to me. He was very knowledgeable and he got my cost down to where I could afford it. The installation team was super. On the first day, they came and tore out but they didn’t have the water heater. So they came back the next day and finished up. They did really good work. The walk-in spa was a really good tub. I can walk-in in and sit down on it and I feel more independent.

The walk-in tub from Independent Home seemed like a good deal. Purchasing it was easy and the installers were nice. But there are a few things that perturbed me. The walk-in tub takes so long to fill and I'm not very patient. I don't wanna sit there for 15 minutes while the bathtub fills, which I have to do. It's my water pressure and then I run out of hot water. They recommended the 50 but I said that the 40-gallon tank would be okay. Then by the time the walk-in tub gets all the way up to where I need it to start, the water starts getting cold.

I was having problems stepping over into my tub. Also, I was afraid I would slip and fall. Independent Home's rep was good. He explained everything. And then, the installers did a good job. However, I wish they left the shower curtain. The tub came with a shower and I just don't have a curtain. I can't take a stand up shower because I don't have a curtain. But I'll take care of that. At this point, that's a minor thing. The tub works fine. That's what I got it for.

We purchased a walk in tub a few years ago and we needed to replace the water faucet. The company that sold us the tub went out of business. After considerable effort we came in contact with Arie. We explained to Arie how much trouble we had with getting a faucet and he was proactive. Arie took care of the issue same day with no hassle. Yesterday the new faucet was installed and we are happy and thankful.

I've been here in Montana for a month and a half and I got the tub done just before I left. Independent Home's reps were really good. I was very pleased with them. I only took about three baths in the tub. I’m learning to even just do short water, and still be able to take a bath, which is good, and learning how to do the shower and to wash my hair. I'm not one to fill it up and sit there for a long time. But there are different ways that I can do.
The fella that works for me told me that the electric that they tied into was a pretty full load on the wiring. So, I have to talk to Independent Home when I get back because there was a bunch of other things on that wire. And I have plenty of room in my box. I'm not one that knows about those things. But he said that he was concerned about it. Other than that, the biggest thing is it gives me independence that I can take care of myself. I'm 74 years old, and I have some handicap. I live alone. It’s just that I have some things that I have get over with it.

I'm disabled and I can't get in my other tub ‘cause if I get it in, I can hardly get out or I can hardly get in it. It's also hard when standing up for so long and taking showers. My husband also has bad hips and bad knees. We needed something that we could get in and out to relax in. So when we had the money to do an Independent Home walk-in tub, we decided to get it done. We both needed the jets to relax our bodies and our muscles. I also have bad arthritis in my back, hips, neck, and shoulders. So we got it to help relieve some of the pain. I love the walk-in tub mostly. It's a way to get in there and just sit back and relax.
The installers did a pretty good job. They had to move all the wirelines and everything. The old tub had a casing built around it and they had to take all of that down. So to me, it didn't really take them that long because it was a hard job. They got almost everything done the first day, and then the next day they were here not long. Then, the walk-in tub had a leak in it and they came out and fixed that. The guy was here for about 30 minutes and that was it. I've already recommended it to my best friend that I've known for over 30 years. She lives in a mobile home too and she's wanting one as soon as she gets the money.

I had a knee surgery and my husband's walking is not very good so we thought it was time to get a walk-in tub. I really would've liked something different but that's what Independent Home came up with. The guy had kind of a problem because our bathroom is kinda small and he didn't think it would go in there. But there was a different guy here that said he thought it would and it did. The tub looks good in there. We're still kind of learning some of the points. He didn't let us look at it and use it, but it works good.

The salesman and the installer from Independent Home were very good. They were on time and they handled everything. There are a few things they haven’t finished on installation and we gotta call them back. I've used the tub a couple of times and if I were to do it again, I'm not sure if I'd get one for the price it is. Once you're in it, it's okay but it takes longer to fill up and drain.

We had a sales representative come to the house who didn't give me a very impressive presentation. In fact, I was so put off by it that I called the home office to let them know that I didn't have a good experience with the home presentation. In the process of discussing that, I ended up getting a very good price to buy the tub. I spoke with the office manager out in Arizona who apologized for the presentation mistake, gave me the pricing on it and made the arrangement to have the sale completed. That's why we ended up going with Independent Home. The installation was great. The fella did excellent work and I'll give him 110%.

From what I had read about Independent Home, they were highly recommended so that's where I went. The sales interview took about two hours and the other part which is the installation took about six. They were very pleasant and very easy to work with. I like that I can get in the tub without killing myself. What I don't like is it's a little bit small as far as when I wanna shower. There's only a small space to stand in.

I kinda like Independent Home's style of tubs and it was a good choice for us. But if I would do it again, I would say no. It's overly priced. The price was right at $12,000. Also, you have to get into the tub and turn the water on so you're sitting there naked and getting chilled. Older people like myself are cold most of the time. You are sitting in an empty tub waiting for the hot water to show up. You also have to do the same thing when you get out. You have to wait for all the water to drain. I could have come up with something a little bit better like having the door a little bit higher.
We also don't have plenty of hot water and we had to turn our hot water up. It'd be really hot coming in because then you run out of hot water. So we turned our tank up and that stopped that. But I love the tub itself. The two guys that came out and put it in were wonderful. They explained how the tub worked. They did a nice job. They busted up my old tub when they took it out 'cause they couldn't get it through the door but they did a really swell job and cleaned up after themselves.

Independent Home is a great company to deal with. They're trustworthy. I got a call from one of their representatives and he was very pleasant. I didn't feel like it was pressure. He explained everything and we went through all the options. I made a fairly large downpayment but they gave terms that were easy to make. The installers were on time and courteous. They stuck to their business and did most of their working outside. They cleaned up really well any kind of mess they made. The installment looks so polished and professional. With what space they had to work with, they did everything right.
I like the jets and that I feel like I'm getting massaged. It's almost like I'm taking a bath in the middle of an old fashioned washing machine. I'm almost getting washed and cleaned without even having to use any soap. It's like the water is actually scrubbing you. The other day, I found this big old bag of Epsom salt, soap and things that I never used 'cause I was always taking a shower. I didn't know if that would hurt the tub or any of the aspects of it.

We found a few models of the walk-in shower and all kinds of prospectus on them, and decided that Independent Home would fit our needs the best, realizing that it is not that much different from many that we had looked at. However, its price was somewhat more reasonable than others had been, even though we felt it was expensive, but it was something that our time and physical abilities in our lives that we needed something that was a more accessible than the step-in tub that we had.
The sales representative came out, looked over the situation and we discussed the aspects of it. We went ahead and did it, and then scheduled an installation date and time. The installation crew came and proceeded to do it. They had a problem that they couldn't solve the first day so they had to come back the second day to actually do the installation. But they did it fairly efficiently, and cleaned up very well and left everything in a nice workable and livable condition without too much disturbance. It was an excellent experience.
The showerhead comes up on its rod just fine for pipes and so forth, but it would be nice if its handle was a little longer so that it came further out from the wall over the tub. When you use the shower head, it splashes back against the wall and the controls up against the front end of the tub there. It's hard to get under the shower. It doesn't come out far enough. It's partly due to the shower configuration. But we had somewhat of a problem with the splash from the shower over the shelf. It's the back edge of the tub that had to be filled in with a shelf between there and the wall behind it simply because of the configuration of the bathroom.
We get water over on the back side of the tub fixture and the tub installation. And then you have to sop up quite a bit of water back there. We've tried to rig some kind of a shower curtain on the backside as well. I realized that in some installations there's not a problem there, but in ours there is about a foot wide shelf across between or the side of the tub and the back wall of the bathroom. I'm trying to rig up an additional shower curtain to go on that side of it, so it has a shower curtain on both sides of the tub.

I like soaking in the hot water and being able to get in safely and get out safely. The dealer who came out did a fabulous job. The installers did a great job, too.
The only thing is when they show you how to do the hot tub and how to use all the features on the walk-in tub, they do it pretty quickly because it's the end of the day. Then the paperwork that they give you that tells you about each one of those features doesn't tell you much. I had to have my son-in-law help me figure out which one of the buttons did what and how that works. So, it'd be nicer if they put in the paperwork.

Aside from that, when I had some stuff missing, I contacted one of the representatives I spoke to and he got on it right away. They also sent them to me overnight. So far, I like to relax in our new tub and have the bubbles going on like crazy.

I was having a lot of trouble with my legs and I got to a point where I fell in the bathtub. I decided that I would get a walk-in tub. I went with Independent Home and they did a really good job. It’s been really good since we've had it put in. I like everything about it and it's really good for just soaking and relaxing. I think it would be a really good decision for anybody. Even if you're in good health, it’s still good for your circulation. It’s just a different experience than having a regular tub.

I've had knee surgeries and both of my shoulders are artificial. I can't get in a regular tub and take a bath. I have to stand up and take a shower. When we found out about the walk-in tub, we decided that that’s what we would try. We went with Independent Home and they did it all in one day. There were three guys that were in the work crew and they took the other tub and all that stuff out and changed the hot water tank. We had a 30-gallon hot water tank and they put in a 50-gallon water tank and all that good stuff. We’re glad we went ahead and made the decision to get it done.

We're aging and our other bathtub was getting too dangerous for me to get in and out. We decided we better get one that we can get in and out of. I interviewed American Standard but they were too costly. I was going to finance it and their interest rate was extremely high at a flat rate for everybody. We got pretty good interest rates, so I refused. In the meantime, I was looking at Independent Home and we are so happy with them. We like their warranty, which was better than the other ones that we looked at. And their contractors are people who work specifically for them.
The guys came and the installation took about three hours. They cleaned up and they did an excellent job. The tub is beautiful and really big and everything they said was gonna happen, happened. I like being able to sit in there with the jets. It works on the muscles and when we get out, we are not hurting and we feel super the next day. Also, it can be very cozy because it lights up. I like that part of it.

About two years ago, I got an estimate from another company and it was way too much money. It was $19,000 and I didn't care for that at all. I'm retired and I'm on a fixed income. A year and a half later, I got a cold call from Independent Home and the representative was very nice. I told her to send the representative out and they sent John out. He laid it all out for me and said they were made in America. He took measurements and everything that they needed. He gave me an estimate of $9,800, which was a heck of a lot better. I signed up and paid the check with cash.
The installers came in as scheduled and they did the install, including the tear-out and the cleanup. They made everything work in four hours, which was outstanding. I recommend that Riaz, the installer, gets a raise. Also, everything is American-made and I like that about it. And it's very enjoyable. I wish the seat was a little bit higher because my knees are gone and it's hard to stand even with the little railings they have. I have to stand up when the tub is full so my buoyancy gets me up.

I've always wanted a walk-in tub, plus my husband and I are getting up in age. Independent Home called and asked me if I wanted to purchase from them, and I told them to send somebody out. The sales rep who came was really nice but after I had signed all the paperwork, he gave me the information booklet and it said on the front of it something about a discount for seniors. He didn't mention that beforehand but my husband and I both are seniors. So, I'm not sure if I got the discount. He also told me that the water would be heated but it's not. So, I was kinda disappointed about that.
Other than that, the installation went well and the installers were very professional. When I asked the guys if the tub has heated water, they said it doesn't but I can turn the jets on for 8 minutes before I get in and that'll cause it to blow hot air which kinda heats up the water. And so far, it's been fine. When you start putting the water in the tub, those jets will start blowing cold air and I don't know if it's because the water is cold because when you get in it, you have to turn the water on and the water's gonna come out cold right off the bat. And it might be because when the water starts getting hot, it can sense that, so it blows out cold air. But it's circulating that hot water and still steam up my mirror.
Normally, I'll sit in the tub for 30 minutes at a time and it doesn't ever get cold. But if you were in a regular bathtub, you'd be freezing to death by that time. All in all, I like everything about our tub and it's been great. Also, I had the stopper that wasn't sealing off well but they came right out and repaired it. There was no problem and we didn't have any hassle.

Someone called me and we talked about Independent Home on the phone. I was getting older and I needed a walk-in tub. The sales reps were very nice people. However, I had a problem with it initially and they eventually got back to me. Because of the problem we had with the virus, they were a little long in getting back to me, but it's all worked out now. When the installers came, they did a good job but I have to reach way up to try to get the soap. That's not a biggie, but if they could modify their design, it would be very convenient to have a soap dish placed down on the left side of the tub, when you're sitting down. Other than that, what I like about the tub most is the fact that I enjoy the jet waves on my legs.

However, people need to really try the tub first because the door is not very big and I have trouble getting in there and then shutting the door. If they're a bigger person than me, they might not like it. We got a tub because I was to the place that I couldn't put my legs up high enough to get in the tub we had.
I don't bathe every day, but I take a shower and bathe. I take the shower to get my hair washed then I turn it off sometimes. Sometimes I leave it on and finish taking my bath. I turned the jets on once and let the water get up, but I didn't have the water high enough yet to cover the jets on the back. It bothers me that when I turn the water on, the water comes out where it's supposed to and it also comes out the showerhead. I have to put the showerhead with it to get my regulation right and then I take the showerhead on and the water all comes out of it.

The installers did a great job. We reserved three days for the installation but it just took about two and a half days. They had to take the tub that was in here and then they put in the bigger pipe for the water. The thing that took longer was giving the tub a designated electrical thing. The tub looks good and it works. We don't use it every day. It's a lot of water and that's one disadvantage if you use it.
There's a circle on the top and it has this little red kinda wavy-looking thing in the center. But we don't know its purpose and what it does. I haven't been able to see anything in any of the information that we got that describes it. There's a light there and when the red light comes on, it just blinks until it gets ready to go off. I don't like to have to feel the water all the way above the top jets because it is too much for me. The last time I used the tub, I didn't have it completely over those top two. But I like the ones in the floor and especially on my feet. It comes out on my legs when I'm sitting down.

I am a disabled veteran and had done some experimentation with hydrotherapy and found that I really got benefit from it. But I had problems getting in and out of jetted garden tubs, so I did research on the step-in tubs. I found in my research that Independent Home was top of the market. Any time I saw any kind of a consumer complaint, they went above and beyond in the way they addressed it and handled it. The sales rep explained everything in great detail and he was very honest. He could’ve sold me the top-of-the-line Cadillac or tubs, but he told me that I didn't need ambient light and Bluetooth speakers and all those other stuff. He told me what I want was a functional tub that was gonna help my health. I really appreciated that.
The installers showed up exactly when they were supposed to. They tried to minimize disruption and keep the noise to a minimum. They were here and then they were gone and I had a tub. There was no mess or fuss. They took the time to really explain how it all worked. But I would've moved the bar that they put up that you hang the handheld showerhead about a foot to the right. Because I do have a concern that the water splashes and it might go down that hole where the tubing comes from. But other than that, I have no complaint. Not only has it helped my physical health, it's helped my mental health. I can go in, light a scented candle, put on some soft music, and spend 20 or 30 minutes just enjoying it.

The Independent Home sales rep was very good and the installation was wonderful. The installer had to do some wiring and he had to put it in a conduit. He didn't have it easy to get to, so that took a little bit more time, but it was not long. We took a day and a half. Another thing is that the rep said to wipe out the tub every time we showered or bathed, but he didn't tell me how to clean it, so I just took a 409 Cleaner and cleaned it. It wasn't dirty, but even though you wipe it out and you're bathing in it, you're still leaving stuff in it.
Other than that, the tub has been really nice and it made things so much easier. My husband doesn't have a rotator cuff, so he's just got one arm that he can use, but he can do very good in bathing himself now because he's enclosed. It's also not where he could fall, so he has really enjoyed that too. He just showers in it. I've used the tub and I like it but I hate to sit there for it to fill up. It takes a good while. Still, we have thoroughly enjoyed it and we love it.

My husband is disabled. He had a stroke and he couldn’t get in our garden tub. He couldn’t stand up in the shower either. So, I thought that a walk-in tub would be perfect for him. So far, I like the one that we got from Independent Home. But he told me that the step on it was the size of a wallet and was shorter than what it was. My husband requires more for him to take a bigger step. So, we have a little trouble getting in and out, but we manage. Still, they could change the way the tub was made. They would have to tear that tub down and bring another one with much lower indents. When the sales guy demonstrated it, he did it with a wallet. He said that if you're able to step over this full step, you can step in it. But that step that we got is about three wallets stacked up. Other than that, I loved the installers who came out. They were very professional, very clean, and very quick.
I’d also seen that someone else offered the shower head to where it’s longer and you don’t have to hold it. But we have to hold the shower head with the one that they gave us. They gave us the one with the coil where you have to pull it out and pull it back in. It’s a long coil. But the one that I saw had a long extension where you don’t have to hold it and it's like you're under a shower. The tub is damn expensive, too. Medically, my husband and I are declared disabled people, and there ought to be some kind of incentive or discount for us, so we wouldn't be paying for it for five years. But despite all that, the tub is beautiful and I love it because my husband is able to sit down and shower, or bathe with the Jacuzzi, whichever one he decides to do that day.

We were checking on different bath companies and decided on Independent Home. A guy came out and quoted us a price. A few days later, they came in and they had a tub that had been ordered but not picked up, so they reduced the price for us. That’s when I had decided to go with them. The installation was fairly easy. They had to break the old tub up to get it out. Then, they had to widen the door to get the new tub in. But once they got it in, they cleaned everything up.
For all intents and purposes, it worked well. We've had it about two months now and we were happy but it started leaking and we haven't been able to use it for over two weeks. I was on the phone with them four or five times trying to get somebody to come out. One guy came out and tried to figure out where the leak was coming from but couldn’t find it. Another problem is it seemed like the water doesn't stay cold long enough. The guy that came out to work on it the second time turned our water heater temperature up a little bit. And we haven’t been able to use it since he turned it up because it’s been leaking. We’ll have to wait and see once they get it fixed.
The carpet has been ruined in the bathroom because of the leak. It doesn’t leak when someone is filling the tub up, but once you put weight in the tub, that’s when it seemed to start leaking. We think there must be a crack in the tub. The guy I talked to is supposed to have someone contact me to come out and see if they could find out what's going on. I was to call him back Monday to get an update, but with this going on, it's hard to get somebody out to go anywhere.

Everything he told us about the tub and where to put it in my bathroom sounded too good to be true. Then, he told me the price, but I had made up my mind even before, and I told him, "Yes." They were quick on coming out to put it in. I didn't have to wait a long time. And the installers were great. Even while they were putting it all in, they kept it cleaned up and when they were done, our bathroom, where they had to come through, was spotless. They did not make a mess or leave a mess at all. Also, I enjoy soaking in the tub and having the jets on my muscles.

The crew was excellent and did a good job on the install. I have been wanting one of these walk in tub for a while and finally got one. The installers were great with all the problems they faced with my tub drain being stopped up. They went above and beyond to satisfy me. They had to hire a plumber to unstop my drain and didn't charge me for it. Thank you Independent Home for everything.

The experience has been great. We love the tub. It’s a very good product. It’s probably better than what we had originally looked at. My husband had looked at another company but he wasn’t really impressed with them or the salesman. So he elected not to go that far and chose another path. It took us about a year to decide who to go to. With Independent Home, my husband liked what they had, the fact that they don’t advertise on TV and that they stand behind what they’re doing. And no matter how long it took, the guy stayed here and finished it. We also liked how frank and upfront they were about things.
The installers were great. They were here a little bit longer than normal, which was okay with us. They were very nice, young men and we just treated them to dinner. They were like family. We thoroughly enjoyed them. My favorite thing about the tub would be the jets by the feet because I have neuropathy due to cancer and that massages my feet really nicely. The tub could make the blood flow even more so and it’s massaging at the same time which is really great because I can never massage like that does.

We had five different companies that we talked to come out and I didn't feel good about hiring the company that was the cheapest. Independent Home was the second best-priced and I’m glad I called them. The installation went pretty well but because of the amount of caulking, I'm gonna have to do quite a bit of re-caulking. But overall, they did a pretty good job and the installers were great. They did it one day. My mom likes the waves with the tub when she gets in there, very comforting and soothing. Also, it’s easy to get in and out and it drains real fast. If there is one thing that wasn't explained fully, it's that we have a 40-gallon hot water heater, but it doesn’t fill it up before the water gets cold. So, a 40-gallon is not big enough.

I had a walk-in tub but I hadn’t been able to use it in a couple of years because its seals had gone bad and the company I'd gotten it from had gone out of business. This Independent Home is a replacement for that. The installation was perfect. The people showed up when they said they were gonna be here, did all the work, and cleaned up behind themselves. They left it cleaner than when they went in there. I like the tub's jets. We're just enjoying it.

Installation went fine but it went a little longer than I thought it should have, but we got it in by the end of the day. Still, they need to come back. I have called but he hasn’t come back yet. There’s an area of the window where there is no caulk at, and two screws missing from the shower rod.

I called for estimates on it and Safe Step at the same time, and they came within a day of each other. But we went with Independent Home because they were kind and courteous and willing to answer our questions. Safe Step didn’t wanna answer any questions or give us any prices unless we said, “Yes, we’ll let you put it in. We’ll sign for it today.” We were very upset by that. The Safe Step guy said, “Well, if you’ve called us, you must know that you’re ready for one.” We wanted to get prices. We didn’t even know if we could afford it or not. They had advertised on TV all the special things that they give you. What they told me was, “You have to sign up to have it put in, and then we’ll figure out a price for you.” And I said, “I don’t think so.”
Independent Home came in. I showed them the bathroom, they did their measuring, and they told me that they also had people licensed for electricians and plumbers, and they would put in a new big hot water tank, and added that in the price. Also, any question we had, they answered it as thoroughly as we hoped they would.
They didn’t finish that first day because of putting in the hot water tank. They had to come back and finish wiring in the hot water tank because it was a bit longer than just their day, but we were fine with them coming back again the next day and it went well. They were very thoughtful. They put down mats and didn’t wanna track stuff in and out. Other than being able to get in it good, the jets are lovely. I feel so safe. They put up enough handholds that I feel so safe, like I’m not gonna slip and fall. A couple of our friends that have been in and seen it said, “Oh, my mom needs to get one of those,” and I’ve highly recommended Independent Home to anybody that was interested.

I don't like my walk-in tub from Independent Home. It takes too long to fill up. That's our water problem. But it is too short and I can't lay my head on the back down as low as I can get. If I was about 4-foot tall. I would probably be very comfortable in that tub but my husband hadn't even been in it at all. But I don't care for it.
Initially, I had a man call and he said that he would give me a free estimate on the tub. When he got out here, my husband was home. I told my husband, "I'd rather have a hot tub than bathtub." Our hot water heater is a 50-gallon heater but it drains the hot water heater. We can't get it full. The cold water starts coming in. I just wish we hadn't had got it.
I enjoy it once I get it full. It takes so long for it to fill up. I don't have enough hot water to fill it. We're on country water and our pressure is not that strong. I'm sitting there in the cold and I could use the shower one to keep me warm. We've got a nice big walk-in shower, so that's where we bathe. And we bought the one from Independent Home just for more or less a leisure tub. But a hot tub would have been so much better for us because we're both still very mobile and it might be good for invalid type person that can't lift their foot.
The installation went all right. I wasn't too pleased with the way the door trim came out because the installer left the spackling drywall stuff on the wood of the door, but I could probably get that off with the sander. I just haven't gotten around to it yet. Overall, I'm dissatisfied. We didn't need the tub. I was thinking it'd be good for sore muscles but my sore muscle is in my neck and the tub is not deep enough. It's good if I wasn't mobile like I am. I wasn't expecting to get it but my husband came in and he wanted it.

I’m very pleased with my walk-in tub from Independent Home. Some friends told me about them. Then they called me and asked if I was interested in a walk-in tub. I told them I’ve been looking around for one. The young man came down here, we talked, and he told me what he would he do for me. I told him, "If I don’t like it, I ain’t gonna pay you.” And he said, “All right. You’ll like it. We do a good job.” He meant what he said, and they did a good job. The installation went wonderful. I got out of their way. Two young men came in here, worked like everything, and they were here for about five hours. I could see them going in and out of the house, and I could hear them cutting, and doing this and doing that and talking. The first time they came in, we just greeted each other. They didn’t take any break. They worked steadily, and I liked that.
I really like laying in my tub and relaxing. I’m 80 years old. I like the looks of it. I can shower if I want to. I can run the water and run it up until I just lay there and relax. I don’t get around much as I used to. I like it because when you don’t get out and work and move around too much like I am now, you could have a flaky skin. But with the tub, you sit there, and you put some kinda stuff in it, and it'll help you oil your skin up. I love it myself. I didn’t care about all that other junk they put on there. Just a plain sit down and wash is all I cared about.

But my husband does the shower to wash his hair and then he does the tub. And he likes the tub. He’s hurting and he needs the chair in the tub and that was another reason why he wanted that because it had the built-in chair. He can sit down at any time and even when he’s washing his hair. The installers were great. I recommend them wholeheartedly at installation. I really liked them a whole lot.

We decided we wanted a walk-in tub, had meetings with about four different companies, and chose Independent Home. We generally liked the way their product was. We preferred it over the products of the others. They also had a good price. Their installation group was very quick, efficient, and good at their job. They came in one afternoon and they finished up the next day. They left the house cleaner than when they found it. We were very pleased with the way they installed it. We’re a little bit concerned that we might have a small leak, but it might have been something that we did. They did a beautiful job. We’ve had it for several months now and I can’t see any problem with the deterioration of the quality of their work.
I love taking a bath and the jets. I also love being able to fill it up. I like a really warm bath because I have some pain in my back and when I get out of it, I feel so much better.

A friend of mine in Missouri had a tub put in in her home and she was really pleased. She told me that she found some people who put the tub in my house and told me their names and phone number. I had limited space in my bathroom, so the tub had to fit where the stand-up shower had been. Independent Home made it special for that spot. The installers did a fantastic job on the installation. They even provided and put in a new toilet for me. They also installed the vanity I bought and put the leftover flooring that I had down. The only thing that I had to do was to paint the wall.
I like the way the tub feels and the fact that it drains quickly. Then about 10 minutes after I’m out of it, it kicks itself on, cleans itself and shuts itself off. I also like the jets. I’m 67 years old and been hurt a lot. I’ve got a lot of aches and pains. I also had major back surgery in 2006 and I’ve got a lot of metal in my back. I am walking better since I’ve had the tub. When the jets hit me, I just relax. And I’ll sit in there until the water starts getting a little cool. Then I get out, dry off, go lie down, and I go sleep. After they left, there was no leak, but now, I’ve got a small leak coming out of the drain all of a sudden. I need to call them about it, but they gave a lifetime warranty on the tub and all the installation. And I like that.

I like a hot bath better and I'm kinda disappointed because now that the water is so hot, I can only put half of it on. It takes quite a while. I have neuropathy and I'm 83 years old and I get so cold sitting there. Also, it's not comfortable. I have to sit straight up. I wish I'd gotten another type that I could lay back.

This is the worst investment we have ever made. We purchased a Walk-In Bathtub Independent Home Walk In Bathtubs about a year ago and have only used the tub about 3 times. The salesman talked us into buying a "big boy" tub and it takes about 30 minutes to fill (no one wants to sit in a tub for 30 minutes waiting for the water to rise high enough to turn on the jets). Plus, we had to purchase an additional hot water heater because we ran out of water with our standard 55 gallon heater. We're still paying on this $10,000 outfit and are unable to use it. We're both over 70 years old and on a fixed income. We're very unhappy with this. How much would you charge us to exchange this model for a much smaller one? The salesman should have warned this poor, disabled, military veteran.

We then went to the bigger one, which takes 80 gallons, and I installed the 50 without even thinking about it. Still, I'm thrilled with my tub.

We love our Independent Home tub. My husband and I both have issues because we're 85 and 86, and he has a terrible back. And so, we've been talking about getting more of these tubs. This young man called and said he was in our area making calls, and that they were putting a special out. He said, "I'm from the Dallas area, but I'm in Amarillo, and I would love to come and present this to you." I asked if he could be here at 10 o'clock in the morning which was a Saturday morning in December. He was here at 10 o'clock that Saturday morning. It was very unusual for anybody to make that kind of a prompt call by phone especially in person.
He came in and we met with him, but we had to go to MD Anderson. My husband has cancer, and we were going down for a check-up. And so, we told him, "Nate, we cannot sign now because we don't know what we're gonna find out when we get to MD Anderson, and we must wait and see what we have going on." He said he was gonna be working the Amarillo area and that he would call us. We had to go down on Wednesday, see the doctor, had test run, do the doctor's thing on Thursday, and we started home Friday. I asked Nate what was the plan, and he said he'd call us at 4 o'clock Friday. We were driving through Fort Worth, Texas at 4 o'clock Friday, and I got a phone call from him. He stayed over to meet with us Saturday morning. He was here at 10 o'clock. He called at 4 o'clock. You don't find that in this world today from young people. And so, that made a great impression on us.
We went through it all. And we had looked at some others and we had tried to get local plumbers even from as far as Lubbock and Amarillo to come and give a look at where it had to go and look and see what could be done about it. We talked to the guy in New York. We talked to one in Des Moines that was head of the contractors. Then Christmas came and went. And so, we decided that we would do it after Christmas. They've contacted us, gave us a time that the contractors would be here, and they came a day and a half early. They called, and this is Shonda and Shasta.
Shasta's the head of contractors. She called and said, "Could we come and look? We know this is gonna be an unusual job for us." They came out Sunday evening, and they were here when they told us they'd be here. They told us that they would be here at 9 o'clock Monday morning to start the work, and they had a plan. They were here at 9 o'clock every day that they worked for us because that's the time they chose to come. These two women did an awesome job.
We are in love with the whole thing so far. We enjoy the air bubbles and the water jets. We like the low shower. When we went back to the doctor for the first time after my husband had used it just a couple of times, his back was so much better that the doctor told us that it had probably moved some muscles off of the nerves that were giving him a lot of his problems.

And the first time we used it, we had a new 40-gallon water heater put in, and we ran out of water. So, we’re gonna get an electric one where we would never ran out of water. I hate the shower. And I like a bath and we’ve tried that, but I didn’t like sitting there waiting for it to fill up. Other than that, the installation went really good. The men were very nice and they worked so hard. They did everything they were supposed to do, but before you sell something, you ought to tell people about the water.

I've used it a couple of times and the only problem I got is that I got a 50-gallon hot water heater, and even with it, it won't heat up the water by the time you sit there and wait for it to get full. I wish I had gotten the heater with it to heat up the water, but I didn't think about it at the time. But the installation went super good. The man really did a great job on it, and I was super pleased with the way he worked and how the finished product looked. The young man that was working with him worked very good with him.

We put in the Independent Home walk-in tub for safety reasons and the first thing that happened was my wife stubbed her toe, fell out of it and broke her shoulder. But she’s doing fine and we’re recouping very well. Other than that, the installation and the use of it has been very good. We have enjoyed it and she’s back to using it. We’re just more careful when we get out of it. The sales rep was very good, there was no pressure and the explanations were good. We were well-pleased with his presentation.

We like our Independent Home tub. The only thing we don't like is that they didn't put a rod in for the shower holder. We would like to have had that but we didn't get it. But with Independent Home, I don't have to step over the edge of the tub now. We just step in and we can sit down if we want to. We can fill the tub full of water and have a whirlpool type of thing. My wife has trouble with her legs and her knees, and she's able to get in and have the jets push out the water. That helps her greatly. She gets a lot of relief from the pain that she had been suffering. The only thing about the installation is that the men didn't put the bathroom door back right. The door would not close after they left. We had to have it redone. That aside, they were very efficient and easy to get along with.

I was having a hard time taking a shower and standing to do it. I couldn't sit down in my tub because I couldn't get up if I did. With the walk-in tub, I like the fact that I can sit down, and either I fill it up or I can use the shower thing in it and wash my hair. It works really well. I have arthritis real bad and it helps. The installers were real nice and did it real quickly and cleaned up. I am happy that I got it.

I love my tub from Independent Home. If I wanna get in and just soak my feet, I have the ability to do that. It's nice. There are no pans to haul around and clean up after. I love taking my bath in it and sitting back and relaxing. In the bathtub, with my bath condition, if I got down in the tub, I couldn't get out. Therefore, I was only taking showers and I can't kneel on my knees to get out. So, with the one from Independent Home, I'm sitting up, I can get in and out, and I love it. It is safer and easier. I don't have to worry about falling or slipping and sliding trying to get out of the bathtub, putting weight on my knees which I can't do without severe pain. So, this is with a chair for all.
The installation went great. The two men that came and did it were absolutely marvelous. They were asking me questions, and they went all out. They had to take a wall out going down to my basement to get it in behind there because the doors were so small going through, and rather than to have the doors replaced, they did it that way. They're ingenious. They were so polite and kind. And the product has great quality. It doesn't leave circles in the tub, and I love the blower that blows on and dries it out. I have to clean it some, but it's nothing like a big bathtub.

I’ve tried to clean it out but I can’t get it all out. Still, the tub makes me feel more relaxed and I love my experience with it.

My installers returned today to fix-repair a faucet valve. They responded within a few minutes of receiving the service call, correctly diagnosed the problem, had the parts send to the house (received yesterday after 3 PM), came today when promised, and finished quickly. Good job and much appreciated.

We got one of these tubs in November and it became unusable in January. My wife was in the tub when it filled and couldn’t turn the water off. The handles moved, but the water kept flowing. If I hadn’t been home she would be in a fix. Had to turn off the water at the cut off. Been out of service for ten days still waiting for the service man. Customer Servive is poor and it takes him days to follow up. Guess what the “Lifetime” in Lifetime Guarantee means. Very frustrating.

I've got a pocket door that slides in the wall in my Independent Home walk-in tub and about two days after the installers left, I went to open it and it wouldn’t open. Apparently, the installer took all the molding for two doors and one of them was that pocket door. So, I called the company and they said they would get in touch with me about it. The man I contacted was from Morrisville, North Carolina and he was a very nice guy. Then, a couple of weeks went by and I got a call from another guy out in Arizona. He wanted to know if somebody had taken care of my problem and when I asked him what was that problem, he said that he got the wrong customer. Apparently, another person with my last name also bought a walk-in tub. The guy who called me said that he knew who installed mine and that he'd pass my concern along to him. He said he’d be in touch with me and it was no big deal. But I never have heard from the guy again.
In the meantime, my son asked me what was wrong with the door and I showed it to him. It turned out that when the installer put that door back in into the pocket there, he nailed a teeny nail but didn't nail it all the way in. So when you pull the door open, it wouldn’t open. My son went and got a pair of snips, then he snipped that nail up at the top and cut it. That took care of that nail. The other problem was on the nail over the top of the door which goes into a slide. The installer nailed that in, but he hadn’t nailed it in all the way, so it was scraping the outside of the door and keeping the paint off. I didn’t wanna do any harm to the door, so I just left it alone. My son snipped that nail, too and the door seems to work pretty good now.

I called Independent Home and someone came by. I wasn’t really prepared to buy it that day, but he was a smooth talker and talked me right into it. The installation lasted all day. They had to take the door frame off and do all that to get in. They certainly did a good job of putting it all back together. They ran tub after tub of water, and finally, they got it like they wanted it. They’re nice young men. My experience with the walk-in tub has been pretty good. I don’t have enough hot water to last the whole time, though. And they never asked me about my hot water. I can only fill it up just a little bit above the seat for it to be hot. So, I’ve got to have another water heater just for the tub. But it’s fine. Independent Home needs to talk to you about the hot water heater.

I don’t know if we just aren’t used to it enough yet to get them to do what we are thinking they should do.

We liked Independent Home's tub and its features, which made us go with them. The fellow we worked with was very informative and comfortable to talk to.

The installers were really helpful and seemed to be good fellows. They had to come all the way from North Carolina down to West of Atlanta, which was tough on them, but they were courteous and cleaned up after themselves. The tub doesn’t add to the look of the bathroom, but we bought it for the safety features. We are getting older and we have a person who's concerned about the safety in the shower. It has been a good thing for us. You could sit in there, relax and have a nice, comfortable bath.

I had been thinking about having a walk-in tub put in. I had one contractor come in six months ago, and he was gonna charge so much. Nate from Independent Home called me, and we set up a time for the salesman to come and talk to me. He showed me his brochures, what they had to offer and the price. So we went from there and I've been well satisfied with it.
The installation team was supposed to get here on Friday morning, but the guy called me and he asked if Monday would be okay. I told him it would be fine and he said he would be here between 9:30 or 10:00. He also said he would call me before he got here. At 11 he hadn't come, so I called him. He said he was on his way, and that he told me between 10:30 and 11:30. I told him he didn't tell me that. But that was okay. When he came to the door, he said he was real sorry.
His son was with him, and they tore out some walls that day so it took them a while to get that out. But they got that out the first day then they left. They came back the next morning sort of early. He told me he'd call before he got here. They worked that day, and he had to go to Lowe's and get some stuff because by that time, they had poured the bath tub out. They had to tear it up so they could get it out. Then they got the walls fixed. He told me everything looked good, but he reinforced everything back there. He did a good job. They were both nice as they could be, and we just got off on the wrong foot at first. But after that, we were joking and talking and we got along fine.
Nate had all of the papers that I had to sign, and he stayed here all afternoon, which was fine. Everybody was real nice. I've enjoyed the tub. The only thing was that I wanted a bar. I only have one hand bar up at the front where the shower heads are, and I wanted one at the other end because that's where the seat is. So when the man that makes this product called me and asked me if I was satisfied with everything that they did, I told him I was and everything went along okay. I said that it is real pretty and I'm sure I'm gonna enjoy it. I then told him that they need a bar at the other end where the seat is. He said he hasn't thought about that. I told him that I was gonna call Nate because he told me to call him if there was anything that I needed that I didn't get. So I called him, and last Friday, they came and put the other bar in. I'm well pleased with my walk-in tub. Everybody has really taken care of me and the tub looks nice.

I had a very good experience with Independent Home's professional reps. I got one of their walk-in tubs as I wanted to be in all of that water like a spa. Their installers came on the day they said they were coming. They did good quality work and everything went fine.

The installers were very professional and very courteous and clean. Johnny and Johnpaul did a very good job on the install. They were on time and finished in a timely manner.

We liked what Independent Home offered and we thoroughly liked the cost. The sales representative was very nice. Then the installation went beautifully. The people had it all in within three hours and they were not intrusive at all. I was just having a hard time adjusting myself because I like to stretch out in a bathtub. But my husband had some health problems, and we figured this was the best way to go, and I think it will be. The experience has been just fine.

The salesman from Independent Home seemed to be very honest but I found out later that he was not. I have a big window and under the window was the Whirlpool tub I had. I had to get a step-in for somebody who lives with me. It was higher than the window and it didn't look good. When you walk in the bathroom, all you see is that huge tub. I was told it would be lower and I even brought up the window jamb. The sales rep said that I didn’t have to worry about that. It'll be under the window. I was shown a smaller tub. The salesman went in and measured because I was afraid. I told them that I didn't want the tub going past the window or that it covers the window in any way and he said that it won’t. It will be longer and it'll just make it. He downright lied to me.
I could have a gotten a smaller tub that would have gone under the window. I had the length space to put it in because they had to build a shelf in order to meet the tub as it was. I wasn't happy with the salesperson but the two girls that put it in were excellent and made it look a lot better. They had to build up things and make things work and they did a great job of it. They took their time and the surrounding of the tub is beautiful but it still comes over the window about eight inches.
The quality is great and I like the tub. I'm able to wash my friend's hair in it, where he can dunk on, and it's a lot easier to bathe but it just aggravates me that they lied and it's over the window. I would never recommend anybody going to Independent Home. My neighbor asked me about it, and I asked him to come over and look at it. He asked why I didn't change it when they were putting it in. I said I didn’t know why I didn't. I thought that was the way it should have been even though he told me it should have been under the window and they were here with the one that I got. The service was fine but I'm really unhappy with way the tub looks and there's nothing I can do.

We were trying to get the first tub possible because my mom has mobile limited. We really didn’t know anything about Independent Home and I wasn't told about the amount it was gonna be. The rep didn’t break it all down to us. And by him just saying $10,000, I just went on and got it because my mom really needed that. The installers were very nice and very professional. They came at 8 o’clock and they left at 4:30. My mom is much better now. She doesn’t have aches and pains and the tub helps her with that because she suffered with so many muscle spasms. She felt like she was energized once she got out of the tub. It was just that I was supposed to have gotten an $800 free shower with the tub, and I paid 10,000 for it, but I didn’t get that extra shower.

The salesman from Independent Home showed us how the product worked and what it was. And I said we wanted it. He spent the whole afternoon with us. I couldn’t say no after that. But I didn’t get a receipt and I need it ‘cause I’m gonna put it on my long-term care medical insurance. I wrote two checks. I could get copies of those, but I thought if they all had a receipt on the computer they might go send it to me. The installation went great. They just took probably a-day-and-a-half. It's going really good with Independent Home. Beth likes and is enjoying the product. I asked her this morning if she’s using the jets. And she said no, she forgot how to turn them on. So she was just taking a bath. But that was good.

The man told us that in all other companies, the parts are made in other countries and shipped here and put together. Independent Home claimed that they’re made in the United States, which did it for us because we’re so tired of everything coming from China and it’s not made well. I wanted the best since I’ve had my knee replaced. I can’t get in or out of a tub. Sometimes, I just take a bath, sometimes I take a shower, and sometimes I put the whole thing on. So, I love it all.
John was supposed to be our representative but another man came along with him, and he did 99% of the talking, which I did not appreciate too much because he was telling us about his operation, about his private things, personal things in his life, that I did not want to know and did not think it was not necessary to know, and it didn’t have anything to do with the tub. Two nice young me did the installation and it went beautifully. They got the tub out and took everything away. There was no mess, nothing I had to redo except put my clothes all back in, and it was a completely smooth operation. They were here before 8:00 in the morning, and they left before 4:00 in the afternoon. The process was great and so far, things are going very good.

I checked out some companies on my own, and I found out some of the lies they were telling. But I didn’t quite feel that way with Independent Home. They were honest and the rep was pretty knowledgeable. We had to switch tubs, and once we got the tub, Independent Home did the installation. They came in the afternoon, and then they finished it up the next morning. The tub is helping with my pain and my personal hygiene.

I had a phone call and I talked to the lady from Independent Home, and she came out here and sold me on it. I'm glad for it. I like it. When the gentleman installed the tub, he did a great job. On the last day he was here, he wanted to get it done and he worked late, which was fine with me. He got it done. I'm pleased with it. I've used Independent Home three times already. I got no complaints except one leak. It was no big thing. It's not gonna take much to fix it. The leak is coming in down along the rail, before the door slide back and forth. I already called Independent Home and I've got a man coming up this afternoon. He's gonna try to repair it for me. Other than that, I like that I can step into the tub, instead of having to climb over a tub. I've had a stroke and this is something I need.

We haven't been able to have a bath for 14 years because we had a garden tub. I was afraid to get into it because I'm handicapped right now. I got a call one day from an Independent Home representative and he asked if we had ever been interested in having a walk-in tub. I told him that we were, but they were expensive and we couldn't afford one. He came out a couple of days later and he told us all the pros and cons. We felt like he was an honest person and we were very pleased with him. The installation was a really good experience. The guys were nice and were real gentlemen. They worked hard and were on their feet for 12 hours 'cause it was a difficult cut. Having the walk-in tub worked out really good. My husband enjoys it more than I do.

The Independent Home tub was cheaper and it had everything I wanted in it for that price. I liked the salesman and the way he pointed everything out to me, and guaranteed that we would be satisfied with it before they left, and we were. The installation was wonderful. I was really apprehensive when I saw how young the installers were, but they made me get in the tub before they ever installed it and I had to okay everything they did. They also told me that if I had any problems or doubts, to just call them. I like getting in the bathtub instead of a shower. I would recommend Independent Home to anybody.
