- a place to easily hold soap, shampoo and conditioner for at least one person. For two people that's a minimum of 6 items needing stowage. Additional items may include a razor, loofa,wash cloth, bathing salts.
- traction for your feet so you don't fall.
- the water to stay in the tub and not on the bathroom floor
- consistently have the desirable temperature and pressure.
- The interior corners are rounded triangles that are usually too small for the bottle stored there. Storing on the exterior corners mean the items get knocked out when getting into the the tub or adjusting the curtain
- most tubs are porcelain or plastic and usually very smooth and slick. It's easy to fall especially with soapy water.
- There is no way for the curtain to form a seal. I can pull it to the sides but usually it leaves a gap after water or I bump into the curtain
- Most nozzles control the temperature and the pressure with one handle. These are two separate functions and should be separated. It's also very difficult to find the same temperature.
