strangely appealing: porthole bathtub
Remember when you were a kid and bath time was an adventure? When I was little, I used to submerge myself in water and swirl my hair all around pretending I was a mermaid trapped in a bed of seaweed. The grownup half of me now sees bathing as a routine necessity, but the kid in me desperately wants this porthole bath from Water Monopoly to splash around in. Everything about this bathtub makes me smile: the serene color, the adorable portholes, and the witty statement it makes. It’s like a punch line for your bathroom! — Katie D.

I used to do the same thing. I would pretend I was a being that could live underwater. I used to do it in the swimming pool, too, practicing holding my breath as long as possible. This tub is wonderful!

I’d love one of those, but my penchant for burritos have made bath tubs not that confortable to sit in

I love this thing! I would pretend I was Chris Elliott from Get a Life in his homemade submarine.

Seriously. This is right up my nautical lovin’ alley! May have to be a part of our bathroom re-do!

[...] or simply make the bathtub a conversation piece, we recommend this tub from The Water Monopoly (via Shelterrific). It’s light, fun and happy, perfect for bathing during the gray winter [...]

Hmmmm …?????
I dont think the design above really works that well i think there is a reason why we dont see many baths like this !
a bit cruel of me to say but its given this classic bath the “Baby look” it would be ok for a kiddies bathroom for a bit of fun i just cant personnally take it serious.
Maybe a bit of fun is what some people want and if thats the case the for them its a good choice.
