    The team at Ella’s Bubbles was fine and their professionalism and knowledge were great. I bought The Royal and though it doesn't have everything, it has a few features and it seems like a good product.

    I'm 80 years old and have not been able to take a bath in over 10 years because I can't get in and out in the stupid thing. The one thing I wanted for myself is a place to sit down, take a bath and relax. When spending money and having to use the tub every day, you want something that fits what you're anticipating, not what it sometimes ends up being. I spent more than two months researching walk-in tubs and decided what I liked and didn't like about them. I had my daughter-in-law look at those up in Dallas. Couldn't find one, decided to go with a shower, and by accident, found Ella's Bubbles' site, went to it, had everything I wanted, including the price.

    I called one company in Dallas that sold a specific type of tub. I asked several questions and the girl I talked to couldn't answer it as it was her first day. I've been from the "I don't know" to the people who explained to me. I asked how the tub was made and what the coding was then I got a transfer step-in with all the bells and whistles.

    However, I bank with a private bank that has very tight security. When I gave Ella's Bubbles my credit card number, it was refused not because of my bank account balance but because the charge was for a high number and Ella's Bubbles. Ella's Bubbles is a cute name and it could bubble bath, it could be soap, it could be something, and that was the little alert at my bank. I should've called the bank and said that the charge was coming through. Maybe Ella's Bubbles need to add something to the name, like bathtubs. Later, I went online to research the tub again after I purchased it and found that I could've gotten it $150 cheaper at Amazon compared to what the total price is, is inconsequential.

    The sales rep from Ella’s Bubbles was very good. We had already had another brand in that talked to us and we had a lot of questions. With Ella’s Bubbles rep, there was this genuine concern for the situation and trying to give us the best price and the best product. I decided to go with them based on the price and the information I received.

    The walk-in tub we chose is the only one they have that has the swing-out door over toilets. That way, we didn't have to reconfigure everything. They had to widen the door frame though. The bathroom doors are only about 24 inches and they needed 30 inches to get the tub in. So I had to share that cost on my own to open the doorway. It was expensive and then it was left undone as well. I have to finish the construction on the door frame – either hire it out or do it myself. Ella’s Bubbles people aren't certified. They could not do it. But that should be part of the construction process. I guess everybody does it but it doesn't seem right.

    This particular model is also not streamlined for the installer. You can't put in the piping the way it's supposed to be without redirecting it because of the improper design for this particular model. The drain to the back-end doesn't fit properly and it's a real hassle for the installer to get around it. Nonetheless, now that it’s installed, I really like the tub and I'd recommend Ella’s Bubbles.

    I was searching for a tub online and everything was great with the sales rep. They called, we talked, they followed up and they made sure that everything was going the way we wanted. I bought the wheelchair accessible tub, which was the one that Ella’s Bubbles had on their website. The payment was easy and the tub arrived in town within 48 hours. It was packaged well and well-protected. It went in without a hitch. I was able to fit it in the area that I had and they had the heated seat. I love the double drain. It helps it to clean well.

    I bought a tub from Ella's Bubbles at Home Depot. It took a little while for me to understand what the product did. I didn’t understand the difference between air, massage, and exfoliate. Customer service kinda told me that I could have two of the three so I ended up buying the massage and the air. I don’t know exactly what I’m gonna get from that yet, but I’m hoping to get to try it eventually when the installers get out of my bathroom. I called Ella's and asked for an installer. They referred me to somebody but I didn’t use that guy. I chose my own remodeler and I had the tub installed.

    I called Ella's back and I told them I wanted to buy a headrest for my tub because I saw that they had them. They sent a headrest to be but the thing doesn’t fit. I called them back. I told them I didn’t realize the headrest didn't fit because I didn’t have the tub at the time. Now that I have the tub put it in, I could see that it doesn’t even go on the tub. I asked why they even sent the headrest to me. The rep said that was the only one that they had. I asked if the rep didn't see what I ordered. She said that if I didn't want the headrest, that was my problem. I'd have to pay for the shipping and they would take it back.

    I couldn’t ask for anything different because I didn’t know any better. I could keep the headrest or send it back and pay. I asked if they were gonna send me $102 back plus the $11 for shipping. She said I was gonna have to pay for the shipping. At this point, I’m not sure what I’m gonna do with the headrest. I’m gonna see if I can figure out a way to use it. But the way it originally looked, it was too fat and thick. I only have like a two-inch area on the back edge of the tub to put it. This thing is about seven or eight inches thick with a big plastic bracket on it.

    Their customer service right now is not very friendly. What they should’ve said was they only had one generic headrest and they were not sure how it will fit on my tub. It would depend on the installation. If the back of the tub is against the wall, it won’t fit. On my end, I didn’t see a picture of it. I just said headrest when I called. I didn’t even know what I was ordering. I just assumed it was a bracket. I asked if it had to be installed before the unit was installed.

    I found Ella's Bubbles online. It’s a local here in Chicago but I was able to go into the warehouse and take a look at the tub that I got. I liked that. I also liked the price compared to the other ones and with Ella's Bubbles, there was a variety of sizes that I could choose from. I was looking for something that was wide and long enough for my husband after he had hip surgery. I liked some of the width that some other companies had but they didn’t have so many sizes to offer.

    Aside from that, their guy came out a couple of times and he went beyond his sales duty to a customer. He explained and measured everything, and made sure that it could get in the bathroom. In fact, the service that I received from them was really what made me go with them. I purchased the tub about a month ago and put a deposit down. But because we are just finishing up with the drywall and our installer is putting the tiles on the floor, we haven't received the product yet. Hopefully they’ll have it delivered next week.

    The woman from Ella's Bubbles with whom I spoke with was wonderful. I bought an Ultimate tub through her and the installation was conducted by Bathrooms By Design. The owner, Jim was a wonderful guy as well and he had a master plumber, master electrician, tile installer and a carpenter with him. They did a good job and built the tub right in. Before that there was an oversized double Whirlpool which was like half a bathroom. When the installers took that out, they rebuilt the whole thing to box the new tub in. The tile goes right to the ceiling and all around the tub.

    However, I tried the tub and I had a problem with the lights. They were working for about 10 minutes then they went out. I thought that was unusual because there’s supposed to be a time, like for an hour. I pressed the button again but it wouldn’t go back on. So, I figured it was broken. I was looking at it and I noticed that the flange and that metal piece around it was a bit loose such that I could turn it. The other ones were tight so I'm starting to wonder if the water gets under the flange and whether that would affect the lights. I’m gonna send it in for the warranty. Nevertheless, I'm enjoying my Ella's Bubbles very much. I like it better than my old Whirlpool because of the air bubbles which add a lot of pressure.

    I got the handicapped model with the door that opens outward from Ella Bubbles. As far as with the salespeople explaining the capacity of the hot water tank, I feel like that shouldn’t be left to the consumer to just understand what they need to have. I had no clue how many gallons of water I needed. I only have managed to take a lukewarm bath a couple of times I’ve used it. I need to get a bigger water heater.

    Somebody at the sales end also should have said, “Wait, before you order it, let’s check this out. How are you gonna get it in?” Especially knowing it’s a mobile home and it’s not a new home being built. Hearing mobile home, some red flags should go up. I purchased online. I’m on the Mexican border in Texas and there's no one local. After I ordered the tub, the installer realized nothing was gonna fit. So he had a little more work to do than he thought he was gonna have. I am very large. I get into the tub and there is room for another person in it almost. It’s huge. But I probably didn’t need anything near that big. The large size would’ve accommodated me perfectly. Nevertheless, the tub itself seems to be really good and I'm happy with Ella.

    The tub from Ella’s Bubbles is amazing and I love it. I purchased it a couple of months ago and Dave, the salesman, was great. He did everything for me. I went through all of the choices and the one I wanted was the tub for two. My tub did not come in a box, which was making me think that it was a used tub. I told Dave about that, but he said that it was new and that I didn't have to worry about it. But how would I know that?

    Dave said that it would take two days to install the tub, but it took five days of my time because I got inexperienced installers and it was their first time to install this certain type of tub. The installers didn’t use wood that was treated and I wasn’t very happy about that. It should have been treated because they got moisture in the bathroom. I would've preferred that they sent me this other installer with 40 years of experience but he would be charging more and Dave wanted to save money. Also, he didn’t ask me if I wanted plastic piping or if I wanted copper piping. They just did what they wanted to do without even asking me. So, I spent another $1,150 to redo the piping downstairs in the basement and change it to copper. Once I finish all the piping, I’m gonna call back and tell him what I have gone through so he can see it for himself.

    Dave also went downstairs and saw everything that I had from the electrical, the water, to everything, and he should’ve informed me that my 75 gallons of hot water tank would not be enough. I had to install another hot water tank because by the time I took my tub bath and wanted to shower down, I’d be out of hot water. I’m not a professional who does these tubs. And these were a lot of things he should've informed me about, but he didn't. But Dave is a nice guy and I like him. He helped me out in choosing the right tub and he got me a good tub.

    I had already picked out a walk-in bathtub and ordered it and then I left for a month while the bathroom was being done. When I returned, I found out that the manufacturer of the tub I ordered had stopped so the supplier couldn’t provide it to me anymore. So I started doing my own search and found Ella’s. What I really needed, even more than the walk-in was a transfer tub. And that’s something that I didn’t really see others offering as good a tub as what Ella’s Bubbles have offered. When I purchased the tub, I just sent an email requesting information. Then I received a call-back and they sent a brochure. I proceeded to do some due diligence on it, decided that it’s what I wanted, and they worked with me. They were very nice and straightforward. I also talked to a fellow in the customer service by the name of Sergio. He has been very helpful.

    I made the purchase about three months ago. Unfortunately, the tub has never worked and it has not been used yet. It has a pump, blower, and water re-circulation, and nothing works. Ella's Bubbles has sent a couple of power modules to replace the power in it, but those don’t work either. They’ve tried to be helpful. At one point, they’ve talked about sending another tub as a replacement. But instead of taking this tub out, which is installed, I'd rather have an effort to find out what's wrong and fix it first. And a technician from Ella’s is coming to review it.

    This is, primarily, for my wife who is a paraplegic. She needs it for therapeutic and medical purposes, so it’s very important to get this done. My wife is extremely frustrated, but we’re making progress. When we were out of the house for a month, we went out to the West Coast and she was anticipating getting home and have everything done. Other than that, the tub is really well finished. It looks great. I’ve tried it. I can actually put the lift underneath the tub, so I can use a bathing sling to put my wife in the tub from the lift, and that’s really important. Even doing that is a two-person operation to get her in the bathtub. It’s a very good design, and I’ve designed a very large bathroom for that purpose.

A plumber hooked the tub up for me and he didn't have any trouble at all and he was gone in a few minutes. The tub is expensive, but it's the best one in the market. You can fill the bottom part up with just a few inches of water and you can get in and fill it up instead of filling up the whole tub with water. That's the only tub in the market that does that. I've had it for about a month and I like everything about it. It's a little bit hard to adjust the leg levelers, but that's pretty common on anything like that.

    I purchased a tub from Ella's Bubbles three years ago. I did a lot of research. My mother is elderly and has been with me for 16 years. Our walk-in shower was no longer working and I was trying to find something that I could get for her that would work for her at that time. The Infusion MicroBubble appealed to me. My mother has very thin skin. Her skin could actually tear just by using a face cloth. With the Infusion MicroBubble added, you do not have to rub the skin with anything. Plus, it eliminates the need for soap. It just takes all the dead skin off and your skin is like silk. She’s gonna be 98 this year, she has better skin than me.

I would've probably went a different way completely had I done more research, because the water does actually pool in the cracks, the recesses around the center of the tub, when it was said it wouldn't do that. Also, I would suggest that if they're gonna have that type of tub with a seat in it, they need to have the panels go all the way down to the ground and not have a seam in the middle of it.

    I liked that the door opened out on the Ella’s Bubbles tub and it drained quickly. There are two drains. There is also the head rest where you lay your head against. Then everything else was basic that everybody else had – the air jets, the water jets and the showerhead. I checked out all the rest of the companies online and although there were a couple of things that Ella’s Bubbles didn’t have, those things that I wanted, they had. The only trouble is that the tub takes 15 minutes or more to fill up. You would be sitting in this tub naked and the water is filling up for 15 minutes. It is really a pain. If I had known that, then I wouldn’t have bought one. The water jets on our feet aren’t strong enough either. But I don’t know if you can adjust it by turning the ones on your back down and put the pressure to the feet. We haven’t tried that yet. I made the purchase three weeks ago and it was installed two weeks ago.

    The sales rep we dealt with was very knowledgeable. The only problem was that Ella’s Bubbles have so many models and they change so often so he didn’t have all the proper paperwork to show me what the product would look like. I had pictures but the specs were different. On the other hand, the installers did an excellent job. It was a tricky installation and it took almost three days. We had a steel tub which was very heavy to get out and they had to break it up. Our door jamb was also narrower than the tub so they had to cut the door jambs on either side. They were worker bees and their workmanship was terrific.

    I did some research online and I liked that Ella's Bubbles has the two-seater tub where one can bend. So, I made a purchase and I had a very good experience with their rep. I had a question and they answered it. Then I called back and I asked more questions. The delivery was on time and everything came in good shape. The whole process was not difficult and I was pleased. And then, I had my own installer, Bob, and he did a good job. I wish I got a bigger tub but that's on me. The tub is smaller than I expected. If it was in a showroom where I could actually see it, I would have made a better decision. And so, a showroom would be great.

    We purchased the shorty walk-in from Ella's Bubbles. It's the smallest one they make and it has the enclosed side and a panel to enclose one end. So, it does not have to go in a bath installation. That was the other selling point. We only had two walls to install it in. Also, it has the heated seat. For deliveries, we get FedEx down here and we even get fuel delivery trucks down here and those are not problems. But anything bigger than that and it becomes a serious issue. When the tub was delivered to me in Maine, they put it on a 40-foot long 18-wheeler and it was the only thing in the back of the truck. They had to literally drop it at the top of the driveway. Thankfully, my neighbor has a pickup truck, so we slid it off the 18-wheeler straight into the back of his pickup and he just backed out. He and I unloaded it into the garage and that was fine. As I understand it, this was a third party contract. This was not Ella's Bubbles itself.

    Apart from that, it went in beautifully and it's still working beautifully. Unfortunately, the lady for whom it was purchased is no longer with us. But when she used the tub, she enjoyed it very, very much. Quite recently, her great-granddaughter was here visiting from England and we introduced her to the walk-in tub and had to carry her out of the house, kicking and screaming because she did not want to go back to England. That's how much she loved the walk-in tub.

    Ella's Bubbles was chosen by my client and we purchased a standard tub from them. The rep explained everything as far as the details of the product, and our interaction was fine.

    I filled out a form and David, the Ella's Bubbles rep, called right away. He did a good job of telling me all the reasons I would really like the bath and we decided to purchase it. We built a new bathroom. I told the rep what I wanted on it and that is how it came. My builder and his team did the installation and it was very good. And as far as how the bathroom looks, my experience was very positive.

    I liked the style at Ella's Bubbles. I knew what I was looking for and I ordered it online. I got the shower and it seems to be okay. I installed it myself. I didn’t have any problems and it is working good.

    Ella's Bubbles looked like a better product. I liked the number of jets, adjustability, and accessories. Also, the reps were very professional and courteous. They even checked out the price of other locations and reduced theirs until theirs was lesser. The product weighs 310 pounds, so it had to have a pallet delivery, and it was delivered by a truck and into the garage. The packaging of the material was so that nothing inside was damaged, which is very good. I wish they would include a how-to video though. Overall, my experience with Ella's Bubbles was excellent. They delivered what they promised, and they were on time.

    We had a very bad experience with Ella’s Bubbles and it resulted in a big loss at the project that we took. The item was very unprofessionally delivered and also, it wasn’t as it was described. Ella’s Bubbles cost us $5,000 to $6,000. We purchased from them on December 10th and we were promised that the item would be delivered within a week, but we got it almost a month later and then delayed the project completely over a month. The customer had to stay in a hotel because the project wasn’t completed nearly a month. And then, the bathtub wasn’t pre-drilled, and the shower faucet wasn’t there. We don’t make a tub drilling and that was why I had to hire another person to come and make a hole on the acrylic tub. It was a completely messed up experience.

    The tub wasn’t planned to be purchased from Ella’s Bubbles. Unfortunately, Google directed us to them with the walk-in tubs and it was a big disappointment. I would never, ever purchase Ella’s Bubbles tubs. It was 2018’s biggest failure on my end. I've done 30 projects and we messed it up because of them. We build and remodel homes, and delays of this much can mess up the whole progress of the project. Ella’s Bubbles was well-aware of what was going on and they have done nothing. I've contacted them multiple times and whoever was doing this process completely from start to finish was all failure. No one responded on time and they offered a very amateur way of handling the issue.
