No, I haven't looked at the new tub. I have seen a few advertisements, but after the episodes of serious infections found in nail salon whirlpool pedicure chairs, I didn't look anymore at them. I could just see all kind of bacterial infections lurking there. Also, I had frequent bladder infections for years. Once I quit taking tub baths, the infections stopped. I have since found out there is a birth defect in the uretha which makes it too short and it's a breeding ground for infections. (More info than you wanted to know I'm sure)

So as much as the tub comforted me, it also caused me problems. And my immune system is so compromised, that I'm not taking any chances. But thank you for thinking of them. They are probably o.k. for most folks.
