what is the round raised thing above arm rest? Do installation intructions come with tub? How many gallons of water will it hold?

The capacity is 70 gallons . There are instructions included, but the specialty drain does cause a tougher installation. Make sure to sand the fiberglass imperfections from the drain area before trying to attach the drain assembly...it should save you a few hours of trouble. Otherwise, outstanding soaking tub!

Since no one addressed it yet, the round dial above the armrest in that one pic controls airflow in the jetted version of the tub and is not applicable to this version.

The way the tub is laid out the rounded part that goes in towards the center of the tub is the arm rest. It is angled up and is extremely comfortable. Yes instructions come. The guy who installed it had to speak to the manufacturer at one point and they were wonderful. We have a 72 gallon hot water tank. We can fill the tub, do several loads of clothes, run the dishwasher and still have hot water for a shower. I love this tub so much that we plan on putting another one in our retirement home.

Hi Terri..... I installed this chair for my mom following her hip surgery, and she LOVES it still! Very solid and safe. I do NOT know the dimensions of her tub, (she is out of town), but it was a standard tub and it fir fine, but it has to stay about 6" from the back of the tub because of the curve of the tub. the back legs need the full width of the tub. I have showered there myself WITH the chair in and theres still plenty of room. I hope this helps! I do highly recommend this chair.

This one is a very small tub. It's about 1/4 the size of the "regular"," 19-oz tub. I returned it it because for $40 I expected a regular-sized tub. I think the picture is deceiving.

The bottom of the unit is foam insulation, so the unit appears to need uniform support whether on the ground, wood grid platform, deck or concrete pad. We built a frame on the ground about 6" high and filled it with gravel for uniform support. You could put it directly on the ground but rain splash or tub overflows might take their toll by allowing water to seep in underneath and eventually cause rot or corrosion. I recommend lifting it up a bit to allow drainage and prevent water damage underneath. Please note while making your raised area or platform - the tub dimensions are not correct. They are actually: 60" by 68" at the base. Our 'platform' was the wrong size because we built it ahead of time based on the spec dimensions advertised. Otherwise -we love the tub.

I inserted the float into a plastic tub. I then attached a small tube from a bucket to the plastic tub. I filled the bucket with water and solution and hung the bucket up high.

Install is fairly simple. The tub only has a drain. There are no provisions for installing faucets. You can buy stand alone faucets through Amazon or Ebay that mount on the floor next to the tub with the spout extending over the tub. To mount the tub, I built a 4" high wood platform around the bottom of the tub. I mounted the tub to the platform, ran the drain tube through a hole in the platform and then secured the platform to the floor with eight large wood screws whose heads I covered with dowels and paint. .

Yes, it's a drop-in tub but we installed it as an undermount. They provide the instructions on how to under mount it

Each tub holds 16 oz of fluid, or soap. Water is the hose connected to the unit. Used a 16 oz cup.

It comes with a 1 lb. bar of wax which is sufficient for the size of the tub. The tub is too shallow for my hands which are small.

Likethe others said there is a small tank/resevoir that holds water nad the hose fits in there and is powered by D batteries. The "shower head" really isnt that great tho it looks nice but doesnt function that well. I truly dont recommend this bathtub to anyone as it is over priced for what you get. I was barely able to use this . It functions ok for the babies up to 12 or so pounds. It has too many defaults and their customer service was sub par. I am very very sorry I bought this unit. Dont waste your money!

is doesn't include anything, it's just a place for you to place the tub. I have the pampers wipe and it doesn't fit, so I just place a refill behind it. I think it's meant to hold wipe tubs that are bigger in size

The grab bar extends 14 inches above the tub. My wife finds it very helpful. Very importantly, the grab bar has not slip since it was last moved month ago despite daily pressure from a 250+ person.

It has two loops, one on each side. You can tack it or I used a round dowel and mounted brackets to the wall so it hangs off the wall a bit. I bought 2 and plan on building a enclosure and run a pump to the bottom which will hold water.

First off, this tub has a reversible drain. Left or right, depending upon how you place it into the opening. There is no under-mount option because this tub is rimless. You have to create your own, i.e. Flash and seal and tile over it. I installed 4 of these in my apartment building just recently. No issues and looks great!

the edge that you see from the outside of the tub is straight, the part that is in the inside of the tub is curved so that water doesn't get caught in the corner. Also makes it more stable when caulked in.

Assembly is required, took an hour. I have only changed water twice in more than a year and probably didn't have to do so. It can be stored upright.

You take out the stopper & lay this over the bath tub drain opening. I have one for all my tubs & they all fit snugly over the drain. There is a model that fits over the stopper. That model has suction cups to secure it. I've purchased that model & prefer this one. It's easy to clean & is rust free.
