CLAWFOOT TUBS
Anyone know where there is a showtoom that has an assortment of clawfoot tubs on display. Also wondering if anyone has installed an acrylic or arcasone type rather than cast iron. If so what do you think of it? And how is it holding up?

We bought a cast-iron clawfoot from Kohler. It was white and had black legs. We then painted it teal with silver legs to match out bath. It looks great. Just an fyi.

For antique tubs see Cesar on Myrtle Ave between Franklin and Bedford. For new tubs I had very good luck with George Taylor Specialties (plumbing supply) in Manhattan. They are on Franklin Street just off Broadway. They represent many manufacturers, are very knowledgeable and will discount prices. (I am totally in love with my 6ft, undermount cast iron 18" deep tub which I can actually float in!)
