To choose the right bath, you should pay attention to the following criteria:

• when choosing, note that a high-quality surface will not shine through;
• it should be checked how strong it is - when pressing on the middle of the wall, there should not be a deflection;
• pay attention to the form - if it is complex, then most likely it is made of non-thick sheets of acrylic, therefore, the structure is not the most durable;
• so that during washing it is not crowded, check the width of the vessel; the optimal distance from the body to the sides should be 5-7 cm on both sides;
• convenience is important - additional functions are possible, for example, an armrest or headrest.

The bath requires careful care. It is worth considering how to properly care for her.

• Wash with a cloth using dishwashing detergent. To prevent the formation of hard water, take a cloth / wet towel and wipe the bathroom walls. Do not use wet wipes for washing bathrooms, sold in most hardware stores.
• Most likely, you don’t want to do the washing of the container every day, buy a special means for washing acrylic, which is a gel that is applied to the thing and washed off after a few minutes. Soap raids will instantly disappear. Why spend money if you can mix warm water, vinegar / lemon juice with the same result. You can destroy the dirt with toothpaste without microgranules, but in all cases an exceptionally soft tissue should be used.
• In a room with acrylic objects, it is better not to use hot appliances to avoid surface deformation, because acrylic is a polymeric material.
• Pouring chemicals inside is excluded if you do not want the surface to deform or lose its luster. The acrylic bathtub easily gets scratched, so if you have pets, use a rubber mat.
• If scratches nevertheless appeared, then it is easy to fix it using the repair compound (a mixture of sandpaper and polishing compound) or repair (a mixture of liquid acrylic and hardener). With their help, you remove the scratches and can apply a layer of acrylic again. The surface will be smooth if you do everything without errors.
• To prevent rust, close the taps tightly; water should not drip from them.
• To shine the surface, pour some furniture polish on a napkin.
• It is forbidden to remove stains, rust and so on with boiling water, powder, alcohol, solvents.
• If you are buying a new product, try it on a small piece of the bath to make sure that it does not damage the acrylic.
• If any coloring matter (hair dye, gouache, etc.) gets on the surface, remove it immediately.

Fulfilling the following requirements, the bath will simply sparkle:

• in the evenings, wash with soap, rinse, wipe dry;
• disinfect the jacuzzi and wash the hydromassage equipment once a month;
• fight stains immediately after they appear.

When choosing a bath, customer reviews will be an equally important factor. Most of them are positive. Radomir bathtubs are welcomed and praised. Rarely do people complain about marriage, but even in these cases, the manufacturer changes the details without question. Consumers happy beauty of goods, quality work, ease of use, attentive and reverent attitude of production workers to customers.

Consumers indicated that Radomir is always pleased with the excellent quality of materials. Acrylic can be washed with detergents without subsequent yellowing and loss of gloss. People note tight closing and easy opening of the drain. You can buy a regular bath or a hydromassage, but people like ordinary models more. The hydromassage system is no worse than a foreign one. These products need a responsible approach.

Consumers notice that Radomir bathtubs are found to be defective. In any production, such an error occurs. Often this happens with hydromassage models, for example, the engine protrudes beyond the contour of the bath. This is eliminated both independently and by production. Comments indicate quick replacements. Infrequently there is a lack of tightness of the drain. Check to establish, get some water inside.

In the negative comments they write that the bathtubs are too high. It is convenient to wash in a deep bath, but it is difficult for older people to get into the bath even with outside help. People complain about the need for special care, but any bath needs cleaning, regardless of brand or manufacturer. And a more common problem with consumers is that the bath emits a pungent and unpleasant odor. But even despite all the negative reviews, the pros take over. In addition, Radomir always strives to become better.
