- 30% more floor space
- Maximizes bathing space for a standard 60-inch alcove

Proven Innovation Behind the Perfect Bathtub
- Nine Product Patents: The Perfectub holds one design patent and eight utility patents with patent protection in six countries.

How the Perfectub Improves the Standard Alcove Tub
The Perfectub’s patented design changes how the walls, floor, apron, and back edge use the available space. Each design feature addresses a common frustration experienced when using traditional bathtubs. For example:
More Room Without a Larger Alcove
A conventional alcove tub loses interior room to sloping walls and rounded corners. The Perfectub’s slimmer vertical walls and tighter corners make more of the existing footprint usable, giving bathers room to stand, turn, or stretch without taking additional space from the bathroom.
This means that when bathing, you have more room to stand, turn, or stretch, all within this alcove tub space.
A More Stable Entry and Exit
The sloped interior of a standard alcove tub forces the bather to restrict their movements to a small area in the center of the tub. When exiting a standard tub, the foot inside the tub is forced towards the center while the other leg passes over the rim. This creates a wider stance for the person exiting the tub and makes it difficult to maintain their balance. Designed as a safer way to bathe, the perfect bathtub’s flat floor fixes this with a floor that extends closer to its narrow front wall. This allows your feet to remain closer together and the body to stay more upright for a much more stable step.
A Shower Chair-Friendly Design
Curved bathtub floors can leave shower-chair legs resting at different heights, leading to wobbling. Our alcove tub’s wider, flatter floor gives a standard shower chair a more level surface and leaves additional room for the user’s feet.
The same design provides steadier footing for anyone who prefers to shower while standing.
Easier Reach With Less Splashing
The Perfectub’s concave side wall brings children, pets, and the tub floor closer, so you do not have to lean as far across the rim. At the top, the built-in splash guard redirects water and suds into the tub, making bath time easier to manage and leaving fewer puddles on the bathroom floor, which is a safer way to bathe.
A Cleaner Transition From Tub to Tile
The steel-reinforced trimback wall creates a smooth line where the alcove tub meets the surrounding tile. Installers can achieve a neat, integrated finish, while homeowners have a simpler joint to wipe down during regular cleaning.

What Customers Say About The Perfectub by BRAK Tub!
We strive to provide the ultimate shopping and utility experience for our customers by supplying both the perfect alcove bathtub and exceptional customer service. See what our customers are saying about the Perfectub and their experience with us.
First of all, thank you SO MUCH for being the only person with some sense to design a tub without alllll that wasted space. I live in South Carolina, and I’ve been looking for a tub like this everywhere.
The design of the tub is indeed user-friendly and saves lives.
There are a lot of things that impressed me about the Brak Tub. First, I’m 6 feet tall and 200 pounds, and I fit in it perfectly. With the Brak Tub, I can fully stretch out and relax.
It’s also easy to install. I love the sleek linear overflow, which allows for a deeper soak. The undercut design makes it easy to get in and out without taking a huge step or risking a fall, and it even helps prevent water from splashing onto the floor.
Overall, it’s a really well-designed tub–thoughtful, practical, and just an awesome product.
Why Choose The Perfectub by BRAK Tub
Easy Entry & Exit
The first thing I noticed was how much easier it felt to step into this alcove tub. I don’t have to spread my feet as far apart or lean forward the way I did with our old bathtub. I feel steadier getting in and out, whether I’m taking a shower or settling in for a bath, and this, for me, is a safer way to bathe.
Comfortable for Everyone
I’m a big guy, and most standard tubs feel cramped. The Perfectub gives me more room to stand in the shower and relax in the bath. It also works well for my mom because her shower chair sits flat, with enough space left for her feet.
Faster Installation
The Perfectub fit the alcove we already had, so our contractor didn’t need to change the bathroom layout to give us a roomier tub.
Installation was fast, smooth, and the finished tub looks like it was made for the space. We’re happy with how the alcove tub remodel turned out.
Built to Last
I own rental properties, and I’ve seen how quickly lightweight tubs can become damaged. The Perfectub feels solid and well reinforced, especially underfoot. It gave me much more confidence that I was choosing a tub made to handle everyday use.
Undercut Design
Bathtime used to be a pretty soggy experience. We have two beagles, a three-year-old, a five-year-old, and all the rubber duckies and squirt guns. Bathing them used to mean leaning over the side and wiping up water afterward. I Couldn’t believe the difference the undercut on this alcove tub, the Perfectub, made because it lets me stand closer, so reaching into the tub is easier, while the splash guard keeps more water where it belongs. Bath time is far less awkward now.
Built for Safety
This is a beautiful tub. It’s nice and shiny, but there’s still a decent amount of grip to the finish, which is such a relief. It’s so wonderful to relax in the shower and not worry as much about getting in and out. The advantage that the thinner tub walls and flat bottom make cannot be overstated.
Reinforced bottom
The Perfectub’s reinforced bottom provides a firm, solid surface underfoot and helps bathwater retain its warmth. When installed on a smooth, level subfloor, it can also eliminate the need for Structo-Lite.
Trimback wall
The steel-reinforced trimback wall creates a clean transition from the tub to the surrounding tile. Its slim profile avoids the bulky ledge found on many standard tubs, producing a neater finish that is easier to wipe clean.
Linear overflow
The integrated linear overflow lets you fill the alcove tub higher for a deeper, more comfortable soak when bathing without raising the step-over height.

Frequently Asked Questions
A linear overflow drain reliably moves excess water out of the tub, while also allowing a larger volume of water to be retained for an enjoyable soak. Reliable drainage lets you keep a hot tap running slowly to keep a hot bath hot, without overflowing. It also keeps your bathing area dry and more stable underfoot. Paired with Perfectub’s clean, integrated lines, the result is a sleeker look and an alcove tub with a bathing surface that feels more secure and comfortable day-to-day.
The Perfectub is delivered to your door with a complete installation package including the drain, toe-kick, PVC piping, and rubber adapter.
Absolutely. The undercut allows a smaller, more stable step when getting into or out of the tub. It also widens the floor space and, with the tighter radius corners, gives you a wider, flatter floor. That means that you get a safer way to bathe in a more spacious interior within the same standard alcove space. That extra floor width allows better movement when rinsing off, bathing kids, or setting a shower chair in place. It’s a small geometric change with a big ergonomic payoff, because you get an alcove tub with more comfort, less reach, and a cleaner interior layout that installers appreciate for its precision fit.
For most homes and light-commercial installs, high-quality acrylic hits the sweet spot. This is because it retains heat well for longer soaks, resists everyday scuffs, and has a smooth, non-porous finish that’s easy to clean. It’s also lighter than many alternatives, which simplifies handling and installation. When it comes to the Perfectub, its acrylic construction is what makes it comfortable, durable, aesthetically pleasing, and easy to maintain.
