Is the back of the tub slanted slightly for comfort when soaking?

Yes it is slanted for resting. We have had this tub for about 6 months and I am very pleased. Nice and deep without being too large for an older home.

Yes, it is slightly slanted and is very comfortable to soaking. The additioanl water depth is also a plus for soaking. The abrasions on the floor are not rough and uncomfortable either, which was one of my concerns. Definitely a soaking tub.

No. The sleeve goes in on a tilt. Water drains out the back to the outside.

Yes it is comfortable, I think the Rubbermaid (white) one was more comfortable and safer on tubs with textured floors though. This one has a bad smell that takes awhile to go away. I agree with Jessica!

It's not scratchy... But it's not soft either... It's no more uncomfortable than a tub without a mat... Just safer.

Hi Sandy - It has a very slight slant. I have a slanted grate-like thing I put under my drainboards to raise the rear up higher than the lip end. 'Hope that helps.

You can probably do that, although I believe it's going to take a looooong time for it to soften, keep in mind that you want the whole tub to soften, not just the outer edge. Hope this helps.

Mine is mounted to the tub. It sticks out a little more than I would like, but I'm still enjoying my baths.

its designed to go in with the tile. Yet it is not slanted as other soap dishes so you should tilt a little.

I don't know if you are still interested in this product, but to answer your question - yes - that is exactly how I use mine. It is installed on the corner of the tub to the ceiling. I have had set up this way for years and have never had a problem. The tension is perfect. It is easy to clean and has held up well.

Yes, it does. It doesn't move from where you place it because of the suction underneath. I've never had a problem with mine. I don't leave it in the tub after bathing, but drape it over my towel bath mat on the side of the tub so that it can dry properly. It is also mildew or mold resistant. I hope this helps your decision if you're thinking of purchasing one. You'll be glad you did.Patt Price

hmmm, it sags to the extent most cloth-type seats do. It will probably depend on your weight and how much movement you do have in your legs. I'm not sure if you mean putting it in the tub, then sitting on it, then swinging your legs in? If that's the case, I would be very careful. It's pretty light, and if you put too much weight or pressure on any part not centered it might tip. However, I just switched bathrooms today so I guess I could try that (never thought of doing it that way!) and let you know if I survive :). Seriously, I'd be very careful if you do. I am severely limited in mobility in my lower extremities but if you aren't as limited (or as heavy) you might be ok. hmmm, it sags to the extent most cloth-type seats do.

The back of the tub is sloped and it is so comfortable! I don't even need a pillow for my neck. I love this tub and everyone who sees it is shocked that I bought it through amazon.

There's a slight curve to it. And the back is not completely upright. Seems to be designed on an obtuse angle. I've had this chair for 3 or so years. It's comfy and goes w everything.

No, it is not slanted.. & very sturdy! We have a separate small shower stall, this is perfect.

No. They are fixed. My shower has a very slight slope so it sits level. Great bench... Highly recommend

I would think that by nature, if there is no back, then there is the possibility of slipping/leaning too far backward. I would not do it. We found this by far the most supportive bath chair.

No problems with the finish or noise. . Absolutely love the tub! Have had it since March. It gets a lot of use with two young children.
