Safe Step Walk-in Tubs

We called Safe Step and we really liked the guy who came out. He was just like part of our family and was really sweet. Then the installation went well. My husband even went and bought them lunch. At first, it leaked, and so we had the guy come out and check it and do some adjusting. It's so comforting. I'm a hard person to get to sleep but when I get in there and take my bath, it relaxes me so much. I love it and I get in there almost every day. The only thing is it takes a lot of hot water so it's best to do it at night.

My husband found Safe Step. We had them over and liked what we heard. The installation went fine without a hitch and we love the tub. We like everything about it except for the aromatherapy. They came out and fixed it right away. They said that it should be working fine but it doesn't. I never smell any eucalyptus.

My dad is a little heavy and he can't get in the Safe Step tub. My mom is in a wheelchair and she only has one leg so it's hard for her to get in and out of the tub as well.

My sister has Safe Step and she really likes it. My wife really likes it too. We got one and the guys who installed it did an excellent job. The walk-in tub fits perfectly where they put it. My wife has used the tub and she likes it. The only thing is having to wait so long to get out.

So far, the experience has been lousy. The only thing I can get running is one of the showers but the handheld won't work. Day one, the computer didn't work. We had to wait for a computer. They installed the computer and it worked one time. Then the pad went out. They came to install the front panels, replaced the computer that had been ordered, and it's still an issue with the panel. The tub doesn't work and the keypad that's on the back doesn't function. Hopefully, once that gets replaced, it'll function. They're waiting for a part again and again and I'm tired of getting these phone calls and no action. Safe Step should fix it so I can use it. We have a useless tub in the bathroom for over a month now. I've tried calling a couple of different times. You leave a voice message which is not very helpful because nobody ever calls back.

The Safe Step tub looked like the best way to go and Jason, the sales rep, was fantastic. I'm using the tub and it's easy to get in and use. I am also able to sit down. When I had some problems, they came right out and fixed it. Everything is great.

My sales rep knew everything about the walk-in tub and he showed me a brochure about it. He also gave me a rundown on it and what’s going on with it. We had the walk-in tub installed in about two weeks and the installers did the job in five hours. The walk-in tub is good and it is doing the job it is supposed to. I like to have the things on my back, on my legs, and feet. It feels good.

The sales rep, Bob, was awesome. He explained more about the Safe Step tub, and he was very informative, friendly, and didn't push to make a sale. We already made up our mind that we were going to get it and it was just learning more about the ins and outs of it. The installation happened within three weeks, which was quicker than expected, and it was awesome. We thought we were going to wait four to six weeks. The whole transaction of it all was wonderful. I couldn't have asked for better people. I love our tub.

My wife had been checking out Safe Step walk-in tubs. It would make it easier for her to get in and out of the tub. The installation went fairly well and it only took the crew five hours to get it in. So far, nothing has gone wrong with it. I mainly use the shower but my wife is really enjoying the tub. It helps with her aches and pains.

We had to come through the window in the bathroom in order to get the tub in because we have a home that was built in the '89 and the doorways are too small. The installers scraped the window jamb and a couple of places, and it was not fixed. The drywall at the bottom of the tub on the left side was cut and was not patched. The one thing that really concerned me was when I saw how they plugged it in. It looks like the cord was not long enough to reach the outlet so they put another outlet kind of just hanging there and the tub was plugged into it. I asked, "Is that safe?" They said yes but to me, that's not. It was right by the drain where the water goes in. I asked, "What if that leaks there for some reason?" They said it won't electrocute anyone and that it will completely turn off if one drop of water touches it but I don't know. If they would have moved the tub towards the left three or four inches, it would've fit the existing outlet.

Everything was good until they came to install it. They brought the opposite of what I needed. When you walk into the bathroom, the water sewage is on the left-hand side and they gave me a tub that needed the sewage on the right side. They had to order another one and then it took another four days to get it installed. It was kinda stupid not to get it right the first time. Also, their advertisements about having a 50-gallon water tank is a total bullcrap. I think I need at least a 60-gallon water tank because I can't fill up my tub. I have the water turned up as high as I can make it and I can't fill it up without putting cold water. Other than those, the finished product is fine and the price was good. Nobody could compete with that tub pricing.

The installation was excellent and I like pretty much everything about the tub. It’s very relaxing. But my wife has a concern because when we use the shower, water gets all around the tub.

Safe Step claimed that it was better than all the rest of the tubs but the controls are lacking. I am having them come out on Thursday again because the controls continually have to be rebooted or they don't work right. For the money that I spent, I regret it every day. What they claim and what has been portrayed is different. It's a little tight in there and it's fine as far as the premise of what it is but if I could get out of this and have it torn out, I probably would. I've already signed the contract that I was going to pay for it but I don't think it was worth the $18,000 that they want.

I was reading the thing by ConsumerAffairs and SafeStep popped up as number one so I didn't look any further. We put in the address and they called immediately to come and measure for the tub or show it to us. The salesman was very down-to-earth and very honest. My son was there for the installation and he said they were great putting it in. They knew what they were doing and they tried out the tub and made sure it didn't leak. They also covered all the floors when they came in and they cleaned up. So far, everything's been great. Everything was right up to snuff on what the thing does and everything about it.

I had a roll-in shower. I thought that would work for my husband. It was a bad install and hated a bunch of things, but I didn't change it for a few years. Someone called me from American Standard for some walk-in tubs. And they were so rude after they came out to my house. I saw an advertisement on Facebook with Safe Step, so I called to get an idea of what it would cost. My mom is 84 and my dad is 87. They've been wanting one for a long time. The rep said it's very expensive. But once they came out and we talked about pricing and financing, I said, “Let’s go. Let’s do it.”

The sales rep was a little pushy. My husband said the installers were good and efficient. I like the tub. It's worked good. I liked the jets because of my knees and legs.

The SafeStep tub has more features and looked like a better product than Kohler or any of those other companies. The thing I love the most is the exfoliation, but the tub takes a little getting used to because it's different.

The guy did a pretty good job with the installation but I'm not real happy with their service right now. We got to put a new shower curtain holder up in it because the other one keeps falling down the tub. We were supposed to get ahold of them and didn't and they have to come out.

I've only used the tub a couple of times, but I'm not as happy as I thought I was gonna be with it. It seemed like I got time but I wait so long for the water to get in and then not knowing for sure what I was supposed to be doing. I'm disappointed in the tub itself. But Safe Step's crews were all good.

The sales and installation people were wonderful. The installers were here all day to get the installation done and the tub is everything I was told it would be. But I'd be a lot happier if I got a remote control with it. I called the customer support line and I'm waiting for the remote control.

My father is older and a walk-in tub would be safer for him. We picked Safe Step and everything was perfect. My father loves it.

They installed my shower rod wrong. It's too far over from the tub. I called in and reported it. The guy said he would send somebody out but I never heard anything else about it.

I liked everything about Safe Step walk-in tubs. The doors swing in and it has a good shower. The installers did a nice job and finished in just one day. They cleaned up too. I got the walk-in tub mainly for my old age. I have never been in it yet and I probably won’t ever be in it until I’m not able to get in a tub. But it's a really nice-looking outfit and the shower works nicely.

A guy put in our walk-in tub on the 5th of July. It took all day but he did a nice job and got rid of our old tub. I had a couple of questions and the installers got back to me. The walk-in tub is really nice and I like the color. I just wish the tub was a little bit bigger. That aside, going into the tub is a safer thing than over it. I'm very happy with our walk-in tub. Although the tub is pretty pricey at $18,000, it's worth it in the long run. It's something we probably needed anyway so I'm not too worried about the cost. My wife has sciatica so the bubbles are going to help with that. She really likes the bubbles and I do too. I like the hot tub. If you go to a hotel, you can get in the hot tub. But you're in there with somebody you don't know. With our walk-in tub, it's just us.

I had a hard time getting in and out of my previous tub so I thought Safe Step would be a good thing for me. During the installation, the crew accommodated me as much as they could. The problem was the sales rep did not put out the directions the way the tub was supposed to be installed. The crew had to work around that because I had certain specs that I wanted to be done. The sales rep knew it but didn't write it up that way.

I paid almost $16,000 for my walk-in tub and it has been a horror show. The salesman knows about this. The biggest thing is the communications. I asked who was going to do the installation and Safe Step didn't have a name for me. They wouldn't know until the day of. They even made an appointment to come and install it once. The salesperson came to meet me here because he knew how much trouble I've been having. The installers were supposed to be here at 08:00. At about 08:15, I got a call from Tennessee, which is where the manufacturer is. They said, "We just got word that the installers can't come because one of them, his wife had a baby and they don't have enough people to come." The salesperson was very upset too. He went outside to return the call because he said he didn't want me to witness it.

The installation crew was very nice but the caulking job for $17,000 was pretty poor. It was not very professional at all. We're waiting on some things to be corrected and for someone to come next week to address a leak. We've got some construction going on so our second bathroom is not ready yet. We're shower people but we are using the tub while we have construction and it's really not conducive for a shower with the way the water splashes around.

Getting down in a regular tub and getting up is a little bit harder. We had a Safe Step walk-in tub installed and that was good. Someone came out and it didn't take him as long to get the job done. I like our walk-in tub and my husband enjoys it. It's soothing and very relaxing. It's nice and it has Bluetooth on it.

Safe Step's sales rep and installers were very good, and since we got the tub, it's been much more relaxing. But the cost is overkill and if you call with anything that's wrong, they don't send anybody back. You have to do it yourself. There were a couple of issues and they tried to talk me through it on the phone. Everything's been fine but when you're spending that much money, a technician should come.

I had a very nice and thorough sales rep. But he misjudged the ability to get the tub into the small space that I had for it to go to. That prevented the installers to install the tub. They weren't very nice. I have a back porch so I decided to make a spa room out of that and put the tub there. I had to have some plumbing done. I really like where the tub ended up so I'm glad it couldn't fit in the bathroom. But that could have been a problem if I didn't have that other space.
