Baths Kaldewei (Caldeway)

The German company Kaldewei is the most experienced manufacturer of enameled products. The first steel baths Caldevei began to be sold back in 1934. And to this day, the company remains a leader in the market of modern plumbing equipment. Despite the fact that there is no official representative office in Russia, Kaldewei products are in high demand. Reviews of Kaldewei bathtubs will allow you to evaluate the degree of resistance of the bath to deformation and other product performance.

Caldway baths and reviews of their use

We bought a KALDEWEI bathtub, besides the fact that the bathtub was like a rattle, less than a year later, the enamel began to crumble near the drain and rust started to climb. I do not recommend it. Before that, it was cast iron, there were no such problems.
pros
No pluses, terrible bath.
Minuses
Rusts.
Term of use
half a year

Kaldewei SANIFORM PLUS 362-1 Standard bathtub - do not lie in it!
A comment
We bought an apartment in a new building without repair, and began to slowly settle in. The first thing they decided to do was a bathroom and a toilet. The bath itself was chosen for a long time, as a result, the SANIFORM PLUS 362-1 Standard model was taken from the German manufacturer Kaldewei. The size is 160 cm, it suited us the most. The legs for the bath purchased separately, of the same company, were expensive and it is not clear how they differ from cheap ones. In general, the full cost of the bathroom came out at 15,000 rubles, but we specified delivery there.

Installation was successful, the bathroom does not rattle strongly, quiet. It cools quickly unfortunately, well, what was to be expected. It does not bend, although the weight is quite large. It is not possible to lie in it, because it is very shallow, only it is real to take a shower in it. And it’s also very slippery, without a rug in any way, otherwise you can slip. So when choosing, consider these nuances, I hope we will be useful.
pros
Outwardly looks decent, thick metal
Minuses
Only for thin people - 40-42 sizes, otherwise it will turn out like a shower
Term of use
more than three years

Kaldewei Form Plus - Normal Bath
A comment
The German bathtub from Kaldewei was acquired by Form Plus 310-1, a long time ago, in 2006. We use it accordingly constantly - daily. We bought it on the advice of the seller in the store, and German quality certainly bribed.

It looks quite rustic, the dimensions are standard 170X70X41. Steel itself with enamel has a thickness of 2.3 mm. It weighs not very much, not more than 40 kg. The service life of the bathroom is 10 years. The weight of 90 kg can withstand freely, it is convenient to use, moderately glides, so we lay a special mat for children.
Water cools quickly unfortunately, in this matter, steel loses to cast-iron baths.

It is good to clean, the surface is not susceptible to all kinds of chemicals.
Honestly, I didn’t see anything special in this bath, but I can’t say anything bad either, the bathroom is like a bath, it serves well.
pros
10 year warranty, does not perceive chemicals
Minuses
cools quickly, only 2.3 mm thick
Term of use
more than five years

Steel bathtub Kaldewei Saniform plus star - a dream, quality is above all!
A comment
The choice of the bathroom was meticulously meticulous, that I just didn’t look, there are more than enough options in our time.As a result, the choice fell on a steel bath from Kaldewei, why on it ?? Everything is very simple, this is the only company that specializes in the quality of steel bathtubs. The company is German, they give a guarantee of 30 years. I liked the model Saniform plus star, it has handles, it’s very convenient to get out of the bathroom with their help, now it’s not scary to slip. It will be really convenient to use this model for older people.

The legs are made of metal, they can be installed in several versions, they are adjustable and very, very durable. Also included in the kit were several sheets designed for soundproofing; they can be easily attached to the bottom of the bathtub.

The coating is simply perfect, even reminiscent of porcelain. The manufacture of bathtubs takes place entirely in Germany, so the quality is probably at its best.
pros
quality, 30 years warranty, does not bend, perfect coverage
Minuses
the price bites a little, but worth it
Term of use
more than three years
