What’s the Difference Between a Freestanding Bathtub and a Pedestal Bathtub?





The clawfoot tub that first appeared in the 19th century was made of cast iron and lined with porcelain. Today, tubs inspired by the clawfoot tub can be found in the most modern bathrooms. Both the freestanding and pedestal tubs evolved from the original clawfoot tub design while offering all the modern convenience required by today’s standards. |
The Freestanding Bathtub
Freestanding tubs are available in a variety of shapes and sizes including the single slipper, double slipper, double-ended, single-ended, and Japanese soaking tub. This type of tub offers advantages over pedestal tubs, especially in smaller bathrooms where the room can look larger with a tub that consumes less space.
The Pedestal Bathtub
This tub design can add elegance to any bathroom decor from Victorian to modern minimalist. The addition of the pedestal adds a vintage charm to bathroom decor without the additional maintenance required for the clawfoot tub. The pedestal tub is available in a variety of shapes and sizes similar to the freestanding tub.
