Freestanding oval acrylic bathtub deante KDA_016V 160 cm

Freestanding oval acrylic bathtub deante KDA_016V 160 cm is a standalone bath designed for comfortable bathing in residential bathrooms. Constructed from acrylic, the oval shape and 160 cm length provide ergonomic contours for reclining while remaining suitable for medium-sized spaces. The freestanding design allows installation without built-in framing and the acrylic surface offers straightforward cleaning and improved heat retention compared with some alternative materials.

Advantages

The acrylic construction makes the bathtub relatively lightweight and easier to install than many cast materials while providing a smooth, non-porous surface that resists staining. Its oval form supports a natural reclining position and optimises internal bathing space for one person. As a freestanding unit it increases layout flexibility, allowing placement against walls or centrally in the bathroom without requiring a dedicated recess.

Suitable for

• Residential bathrooms where a freestanding bath is desired
• Medium-sized bathrooms that accommodate a 160 cm tub
• Users prioritising easy cleaning and thermal comfort during bathing
• Renovations where no built-in framing or alcove is planned

When it may not be suitable

This 160 cm bathtub is designed primarily for single-person use and may feel compact for users seeking a very spacious or two-person tub. It is made of acrylic, which can be less impact-resistant than some solid surface or cast-iron alternatives and may require careful handling to avoid scratches. If your bathroom needs a built-in or enclosed bath solution, a freestanding model may not fit that design requirement.

Key specifications

• Shape: Oval
• Material: Acrylic
• Type: Freestanding bathtub
• Length: 160 cm
• Intended capacity: Single-person bathing (ergonomic contouring)

How to use

Position the freestanding bathtub on a level, load-bearing floor and connect to the bathroom drainage and overflow according to local plumbing standards. Use a qualified installer for water and waste connections to ensure watertight seals. Fill the tub to the desired level and adjust water temperature before entering. After use, drain fully and rinse the surface; avoid abrasive cleaners to protect the acrylic finish.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm bathroom dimensions and clearances to accommodate a 160 cm freestanding tub and access for installation.
• Check floor load capacity and plan for plumbing connection points and trap location.
• Decide on drain, waste and overflow fittings compatible with acrylic bathtubs and your local plumbing.
• Consider whether a freestanding style suits your bathroom layout and maintenance preferences.

Usage recommendations

Use a mild, non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth for regular maintenance. Avoid exposing the acrylic surface to sharp objects or harsh chemical strippers. To preserve heat retention, fill the bath with warm water shortly before use and close doors/windows to reduce drafts during bathing.
