Wall thickness
Wall thickness indicates not only the thermal conductive properties, but also the durability of the product. However, the same parameter affects the price of the device. Accordingly
thick-walled baths makes no sense to acquire for rare use. It is enough to make do with
5 mm .
Country of origin
Country of origin, officially declared in the characteristics of the bath. Note that this parameter may not correspond to the actual place of production - the “homeland” of the company selling bathtubs is often indicated as the manufacturer, and the production may be located in another country. This is done for advertising purposes: for example, the products of European and American companies are considered by many to be more reliable and of higher quality than those of Asian firms. However, the actual quality of products today depends not so much on geography, but on the integrity of a particular company; therefore, when choosing, it makes sense to focus not on the country of origin, but first of all on the reputation of the brand. In this niche, in addition to the domestic manufacturer, the most popular manufacturers are
Austria,
Germany,
Spain,
Italy,
China,
Poland,
Portugal,
Slovenia,
Turkey,
France,
the Czech Republic,
Switzerland.
Manufacturer's warranty
The warranty period declared by the manufacturer for this bathtub model is the period during which the manufacturer guarantees the quality of the product. Particularly with bathtubs, the guarantee mainly covers the coating and indicates how long, with proper care, the appearance of the bathtub will remain in good condition.
The longer the warranty period (and it can be different, both
5 years and
10 years ; even there are
bathtubs with a guarantee of 30 years) - the more reliable the bathtub is, the higher its overall quality, all other things being equal, but the more expensive it will be cost compared to peers.
