Walk-In Shower vs. Tub: Which Is Better for Your Home?
Weighing daily use, resale and budget when deciding between a tub and a walk-in shower.

How you actually use the room
If the tub is used mostly as a shower, a walk-in design typically offers more space, easier cleaning and easier entry.
Resale considerations
Many buyers want at least one tub in the home, so converting a secondary bath tub is often less important than keeping one somewhere.
The middle ground
Low-entry tubs and shower-tub combos with grab bars are options when you want both.
