Staircase Bathtub: The Olympic Event Nobody Asked For…

Staircase Bathtub: The Olympic Event Nobody Asked For…Who approved this?

A bathtub at the top of a staircase—because nothing says “relaxing soak” like the risk of a full-body tumble into your living room.

This isn’t just a bathroom design fail.
It’s a full-blown obstacle course.
To get out, you don’t need a towel.

You need a harness, a prayer, and a Cirque du Soleil contract.

Seriously, Who Thought This Was a Good Idea?

The bathtub is perched right at the edge of a staircase like it’s plotting your demise.
One wrong step, and you’re re-enacting Home Alone in reverse.

Statistics already show bathrooms are one of the most dangerous rooms in the house.
Slippery surfaces, soap, wet feet…
Now add gravity and a 12-step drop.

The Design Pitch (Probably)

• Architect: “Picture this—luxury spa meets adrenaline park.”
• Contractor: “Love it. Let’s make sure there’s NO railing.”
• Homeowner: “How soon can I fall down it?”

Real Life Side Effects May Include:
Drying off mid-flight

Sudden chiropractic appointments

Calling 911 while wrapped in a towel yelling, “I just wanted a bubble bath!”

Final Verdict:
This isn’t a tub.
It’s a trap.

A staircase bathtub is like putting a treadmill in a pool.
It can be done… but should it?

If your idea of a spa night includes risking a sprained ankle and mild vertigo, then hey—this one’s for you.
For the rest of us? Let’s keep our tubs firmly grounded.
