My bathroom is (teeny tiny) 58 inches across so I needed a small tub that packed some style punch. This is it. And it's way sturdy too - cast iron and heavy! It's freaking beautiful and I love it. Just be aware that 54 inches is a very small tub, made smaller by the way it slopes (although, that makes for comfy lounging in the tub as long as you don't mind not being able to extend your legs fully).
