For a bath, I would suggest actually getting in to one in the

some reason.

Yes, I have noticed that and ruled out several baths, to my wife's
disgust, for those same reasons.

For example, I found some where the sloped end
was too steep, and if you wanted to soak in the bath for an
hour (as I sometimes do), you'd end up with a cricked neck.

Like you, I do enjoy a good soak. I sometimes fall asleep in the bath.
Left foot covering the overflow, water up to the chin and right foot
crossed over left knee, to maintain a geometric lock :-)

I went for a Kawaldi steel bath, which I found in a sale for
under £100.

I think you have talked me into a steel bath, but do you think you can
convert my opinionated wife at the same time ;-)

Used a bog-standard B&Q Bog which works very well

We didn't find anything that we liked.

although the seat that was for use with it was useless

IKWYM :-)

Many thanks for your input
