Why You Should Install A Curved Shower Rod

Curved Shower Rod
If you've ever taken a shower and been frustrated because the shower curtain is too close, a curved shower rod may be the solution for you. Curved shower rods extend away from the bathtub allowing for more open space in your bathtub or shower. The crescent rod pictured above allows for 25% more space while the double crescent rod pictured below creates up to 5 feet of extra space.

New Affordable Luxury Shower from American Bath Factory

For decades, travertine stone has been used to create some of the most luxurious bathrooms. Many have adorned showers, floors, and countertops with travertine for its warm, lavish appeal. Chances are many more would have done the same had not cost or labor been prohibitive.

Enter American Bath Factory's Sistine Stone Shower System™.

For years, American Bath Factory has provided a line of products known as Sistine Stone™ - a resin-based stone that offers the look and feel of travertine for countertops, vanities, and backsplashes without the lofty price. An now, they've extended this line to include their latest innovation - the Sistine Stone Shower System. Never before has it been possible to enjoy the luxurious look and feel of a travertine shower at such an affordable price.

The Sistine Stone Shower Systems in essence is a manufactured shower kit that can be easily adapted to virtually any bathroom. It's available in a variety of sizes and formats such as left or right threshold, single threshold, or neo-angle threshold. It includes prefabricated shower walls, 3/8" glass door, 1-piece shower pan, and designer faucet with a hand shower. Optional accessories include a bench, recessed shampoo shelf, and body sprays.

Even better, its intelligent design makes it possible for the average DIY'er to install it in a comparatively short amount of time. Moderately experienced renovators can install it in less than one day. Try doing that with real travertine stone tiles.

Attractive as their look is their cost. With prices starting below $2000, you will find these showers to be a fraction of the price of traditional travertine showers and equally enjoyable.
