Bathtubs That Can Hold 300 Pounds

The average bathtub will likely make an uncomfortable fit for a person who weighs 300 pounds. Although the tub -- and floor -- should be able to handle the weight, the average tub will be on the small side for heavier individuals. However, a variety of non-standard size bathtubs will comfortably accommodate the 300-pound consumer.

Bathtub Materials

    One of the main concerns when looking for a bathtub that will hold a 300-pound person is the material. Cast iron is certainly strong enough to hold any weight, but with a large cast iron tub itself weighing in at over 400 pounds, there's a risk to the floor's structure once it's filled with several hundred pounds of water and a large person. Conversely, fiberglass tubs are lightweight, but their bottoms may flex, causing tiny cracks and leakage, a problem that could be exacerbated by a larger bather. If you choose fiberglass, it must be designed to accommodate the weight. Otherwise, choose enameled steel, acrylic or stone polymer.

Oversized Standard Tubs

    While oversized bathtubs can be custom-made in any size and shape, commercially available tubs come in sizes larger than the standard 60-inch-by-30-inch models. Rectangular bathtubs come as large as 72 inches long and 42 inches wide with a deeper depth. While not the roomiest of tubs, large-sized standard tubs are a relatively affordable option for the plus-sized person.

Whirlpools

    Whirlpool tubs are frequently designed for two or more people, making it easy to find a style to accommodate the 300-pound-plus consumer. Look for two-seaters without the built-in seats, which are generally square shaped. In addition to their larger size, whirlpools also have water-jet massage features for relaxation. Whirlpools cost more than oversized standard tubs, but you can omit the water massage option for a large soaking tub that fits a 300-pound person comfortably.

Bariatric Tubs

    While tub size is an obvious issue for plus-sized bathers, accessibility is another. An oversized bathtub isn't of much use if getting in and out is difficult. Large bariatric tubs offer a solution to both problems by allowing the bather to enter the tub via a door on the side. Bariatric tubs also typically have a ledge for sitting and rails for ease of maneuverability. Look for bariatric tubs that are American Disabilites Act Approved, especially if the bather has mobility issues.
