The Bad
- Not Available in All States
Not Available in All States

American Standard's 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.

I love American Standard walk in tubs. We purchased this recently, and it has made day to day life so much easier.

The American Standard walk-in-tub is very sturdy, and was easy to install. It makes it so much easier to get in and out of the tub and still provides the enjoyment of soaking in a tub. They had a great assortment of styles to choose from and I know that I can trust the company for quality.

We were in need of a walk in tub for my grandmother. American Standard had the perfect solution for her. The walk in tub allows her to keep her independence. And we couldn't find a better value in other brands.

nothing bad to say about American Standard, -- pristine tub was delivered and set up on time and the crew was professional. Will go through them again when I get the chance
david weber
everything was as described. absolutely no problems. I recommended to my best friend and I would do the same for anybody who asks! Its nice to see a modern company with traditional values about how to treat a customer good. The warranty alone is more than worth every penny

Cameron Harris
Pretty good overall, I was able to call customer service and get eveything sorted out. The tub itself is fabulous and I don't know how I lived without it for so long

Replacement parts of a poorly designed toilet bowl, turned into a long back and forth!
Maggie Keatley
American standard USA were very good at following up with my concern. However, as I am Canadian and bought in Canada I was referred to AM in Canada which was prideful as they have never contacted me or resolved my issue after the attempts!
