LAST UPDATED: December 23rd, 2024

Originally founded as the Standard Sanitary Manufacturing Company in 1875, the company adopted the name American Standard in 1967 and has grown to provide its innovative kitchen and bath products in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The company offers hundreds of walk-in tub variations according to type, features, material, size, and price, and, as the manufacturer of the tubs (not just a distributor), it manages warranty terms and details with customers directly. In addition to walk-in tubs, American Standard manufactures faucets, sinks, toilets, traditional tubs, and showers, many of which are designed with environmental sustainability in mind. With over 140 years of experience manufacturing high-quality products and serving customers, American Standard has become a trusted brand in the industry.

Industry Experience 

American Standard has been in business for over 140 years. During this time, the company has gained valuable industry experience and expertise in addition to maintaining a tradition of quality, innovation, and, more recently, sustainability. 

Safety and Therapeutic Features

The company’s walk-in tubs include a variety of safety and functionality benefits to fit the needs of people with limited mobility, including the following:

  • RevitaJet Whole Body Hydrotherapy System with 44 air and water jets
  • Targeted back, leg, wrist, and foot massaging jets

  • Automatic Water Purging System 

To ensure customers know which of the above features come with each model, the company website lists detailed specifications for each model, including measurements, warranty details, and customizable component options such as drain configuration, color, and additional safety, comfort, and luxury features. 

Showroom and Retail Availability 

American Standard walk-in tubs are available for seeing in person at showrooms throughout the country. This allows potential customers to see and touch different tub models and also to talk to design professionals and experts prior to making a purchase or even getting an in-home installation quote. Tubs can be purchased from showrooms, retailers, wholesalers, and online retailers. 

Simple Process

American Standard’s general process for purchasing a walk-in tub is simple. First, interested individuals schedule an appointment with one of the company’s representatives. An in-home visit allows American Standard to hear the potential customer's needs, assess his or her bathroom’s current design layout, and provide a free estimate for the complete purchase and installation of a walk-in tub. Next, American Standard’s team coordinates a full installation of the customer’s new walk-in tub, as well as remove the old bathtub and any debris from the installation. Once installation is complete, the customer receives instructions on how to operate his or her new tub with one of the company’s specialists.

The Bad

  • Returns and Refund Fees

Returns and Refund Fees

American Standard has a fairly typical return and refund policy. However, there are a few things we believe customers should be aware of before they finalize their purchase. 

First thing is that American Standard accepts returns for merchandise purchased at Americanstandard-us.com for up to 30 days after the date of purchase. 

Secondly, all sales on clearance items are final, nonexchangeable, and nonrefundable.

Thirdly, original shipping fees are non-refundable. In fact, the flat shipping rate of $6.99 per order to return products will be deducted from the total refund amount. An additional fee of $20 per order will be deducted from the refund amount for returns shipped from Alaska and Hawaii.

If you are returning a bathtub, there is a freight fee of $100 per item (deducted from the refund amount). For Alaska and Hawaii, the freight fee goes up to $150 per item (deducted from the refund amount).

Additionally, there is a freight fee of $40 per item for toilet returns (deducted from the refund amount). That freight fee increases to $65 per item for residents of Alaska and Hawaii. 

Again, these are fairly typical throughout the industry, but it is something to keep in mind before hitting the buy button.

The Bottom Line

The American Standard goal is to help customers feel independent and safe in the comfort of their own homes and the company does that and more by making the tub-buying process as easy as possible. With a huge inventory of its own manufacturing, a host of safety features and hydrotherapy options, filtered search navigation, member-login warranty management, and installation, American Standard is undoubtedly among the top competitors in the industry.

Steve

American Standard home services did a walk-in shower and walk-in tub at our home. The work was completed very timely, very professionally, and expertly. The sales staff acted as a liaison if I had questions, the folks doing the installations were great and easy to work with. I was guided through the process which for me included some unknown plumbing issues which we got resolved with their help and guidance. The entire process was painless and enjoyed watching and learning from the installers as they did their work. We have pets -- no problem. They were not bothered by their curiosity; hence, our pets left them alone quickly having accepted them into our home. I highly recommend work with American Standard. Missy, Amir, & Adam, many thanks, superb work, superior support, and a wonderful outcome.

Connie

Once I contracted with American Standard, I immediately received a text outlining my order. Contact was maintained throughout the process. I was contacted by the plumber that was going to be doing the work. He was here promptly. Started right away and he and his team worked like clockwork. I had two step-in showers and toilets installed. The installation was amazing. The craftsmanship was astounding. I am having new flooring installed now and the flooring company owner was amazed at how well the work was done. He immediately wanted to know who did the installation. I love my showers. If I had any complaints at this point, it would be that the shower floor is a little slippery for me. I just had a shower mat come in that I am going to try out today. But, I LOVE my showers.

It is so nice to be able to shower again. I have problems with my legs that I decide to invest in a walk-in shower to replace the bathtub. I now take long showers every time I use my new American Shower. Love it.

Dave

The salesman (Mark P) was professional, friendly and helpful. He did not push us to purchasing or did he try to upsell. He allowed us to select what we needed in the price we could afford. The shower and toilet arrived earlier than expected. DeQuan T. and his assistant Tony (installers) were prompt. DeQuan was patient as I asked several questions before he even started. Not only were they polite, they also cared about my house as they not only protected the area going to the bathroom but cleaned the area where they worked outside once they were finished. Although the shower seat was not delivered with the order, DeQuan prepared the area for it and contacted someone to make sure it would be overnighted. Debbie (office) was able to have DeQuan return and install the seat. He was once again prompt and polite. The product is now in and looks great. Both Mark and DeQuan are certainly assets to your company.
