KOHLER Villager 30.25-in x 60-in White Cast Iron Rectangle Alcove Soaking Bathtub ( Right Drain )

Second Time with a Scratch

Kohler "Living Off Its Name"

Ordered tub three times and each time it was damaged. Kohler is applying the porcelain so thin that it does not survive shipping.

The floor of the bathtub rusted (obviously issues with the finish as it's cast iron underneath). I also found small on hole areas of the finish that are down to the cast iron. They are not ...

I installed this tub myself. It's cast iron but not as heavy as many cast iron tubs. I was able to maneuver it around fairly easily and I'm 62 years old. It's cast iron so I won't have to change it out agaIn in my lifetime. It has a nice finish and looks nice.
