Default Stall Shower vs Big Vanity

using the space the stall shower takes up to put in a big sink/vanity
like the Significant Other wants, but several friends say that a
separate shower is a big convenience and selling point. Apparently
many people won't consider buying a house without a stall shower.


I suppose the correct answer is to do whatever we want to do. Neither
of us is quite near an age where climibing over a tub wall is a big
challenge. Still, I was shocked at the number of people who told me
that I'd be crazy to remove a stall shower.


Take out the stupid tub and leave the shower. *The only thing even close to
being as useless as a tub is a shower in one.

IYHO, of course...

Both of my daughters - late teens - still enjoy a nice long bubble
bath sometimes. Far be it from me to deny them this simple pleasure.

So if your tub get used, and all you have room for is a "shower in
one" then "useless" doesn't fit either case.
