Laurel Mountain Mercer V Whirlpool RH

Poor company to deal with

Avoid Laurel Mountain at all costs. I ordered a tub and drain kit. I inspected both on pick up (as much as one does...open box with drain kit, saw bags of parts) but when it came to assembly time there was a folded up note in the BOTTOM of the box saying "we are sorry that the part you ordered was out of stock. However we did not want to delay your shipment. please call us at XXXX and provide your address and we will overnight it to you as soon as it's back in stock.". In calling the number they...

Ahhhhh! Love the new tub! Part 1

Being in construction, there are many days when i just want to soak in a whirlpool tub. Now that we've renovated our bathroom, I can do that.There were many tubs to choose from but the limiting factor was available space. Out with a porcelain 30" x 60" tub. There was some extra space between the tub and toilet. Enough for the 36" x 60" whirlpool and still within compliance with necessary toilet space. BTW, mostly used for showering. So much for my project... Let's talk about the tub.... It is up...

Love this tub

I purchased this tub to replace an aging but still perfectly conditioned Kohler corner whirlpool tub. The old Kohler tub cost around six thousand dollars 25 years ago, and it was black which made keeping it clean very difficult. My design for my bathroom renovation included a corner shower, so I needed to find a “normal” size whirlpool to incorporate into the design. The Kohler still functioned perfectly so I was hesitant to buy any other brand. Unfortunately (or so I thought at the time) the...

Second version of this tub

We had our bathroom remodeled last year and put in this tub. Right after installation, the tub cracked in the corner (I suspect it was defective from the start since I don’t know how a tub could crack from normal use). Our contractor did multiple patch jobs over the span of a year until we finally decided to have it replaced. The tub itself is amazing. I’m taking one star off though since Laurel Mountain didn’t honor their warranty. Thankfully the contractor paid out of their own pocket to rep...

Mercer V tub

While the tub is beautiful there are a couple of issues when we got it special order The tub says it’s 16” deep and with there deep soak drain you get 2” more depth this is false the face at the drain bottom. Is 15 1/2 If the turn the the steel drain plate up and add the plastics disc they say to do your lucky if it adds an inch to the total depth is 16 1/2 inches Which is misleading if I would have known this to begin with I would have ordered a deeper tub from another manufacture Also the...

whirlpool tub

I would recommend this tub to any body good jet action. There are a couple issue's with the tub. The pillow which I really like will not stay in place very well with the suction cups it has. you don't want to keep the pillow in place when showering because it is not totally water proof, and you might have to take the insides out to wring it out. But it is very hard to get the suction cups to stick to the tub after taking it off. I wish the tub were just a little wider for a 36" tub I bought ...

Overall quality

Bought this tub and just finished installing it in our ensuite. Thankfully I have been doing all my home repairs and remodeling for years. Mainly because I can't get vendors who care about their quality. Anyway, this tub was not level as advertised. Sitting on a level surface the back deck surface was a 1/2 inch higher than the front. When the fiberglass was blown into the mold, they made no effort to make the flange that attaches to the wall the same thickness. As it was delivered, the over all...

Great Tub!

This is my second tub from Laurel Mountain. I enjoyed it so much that when we moved and were doing renovations, I wanted the same tub. My husband updated it with more jets for my back. I love to just get it and let the heater and jets massage away my aches and pains. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis & other issues- this tub is great to make the pain go away. The self draining option is very important to me as we live in Florida and I need the tub to drain all the pipes. Cleaning it is a breeze,.

Nice Whirlpool Tub

The tub is built well and my wife and I thought it was much nicer than others we considered. Another big reason we chose it was the flexibility of three different locations to install the pump in order to accommodate service access. Most of the others we looked at would not have worked in our situation or invalidated the warrantee. Installation isn't all the difficult if you know what you're doing. However, the support site could easily be improved by just including better documentation for ...

Lowes Brand Whirlpool Tub

I Originally ordered the tub with the Brushed Nickel it came with Chrome jets. I had to send it back because the Dimensions were not correct, the Replaced Tub came with the correct Brushed Nickle Jets, it costed another $150, if you can get by with the Installed White Jets I would probably do that if I had to do it over again. the tub jets are very strong and the motor is accessible through a side cover, My last Jacuzzi Tub you had to pick the tub up and out to gain access so that helps a lot fo...
