I remember when I first saw walk-in tubs I laughed thinking they were
for really old people. Well, guess what...they look pretty good now!
Does anybody have any experience with them? I see they go for $1500 - $20k.

Main issue - you have to get in, then fill, then drain, then exit.
That's a long time to sit, waiting.

The American Standard that they've been promoting on TV advertises a 2
minute drain from full. I think the use a water jet pump to force the
drain speed. They claim that it's patented.

Two minutes sounds fast - when you're kissing your wife. Sitting
in a tub while it drains, knowing you're going to need to shower off
the soap when done ... too long.
