If the 60-inch side flange on your BootzCast bathtub bows outward by about 3/8 inch, leaving small gaps on both ends, the issue can typically be corrected with proper leveling and support. First, make sure the tub is installed on a level, fully supported surface. If the floor is uneven, use small shims to achieve a level base. Bootz also recommends installing a 2x4 stringer along the wall studs directly under the tub flange to provide continuous support and prevent flexing. In areas where the flange bows out, thin shims can be placed behind the flange or between the flange and the stringer to help it sit flush against the wall. Once leveled, secure the flange to the studs with large-head galvanized nails or screws with washers. It’s important to make these adjustments before adding the wall panels or surround to ensure a square, watertight installation and to prevent future alignment issues.

The primary difference between BootzCast and MauiCast tubs lies in their depth, size options, and overall soaking comfort. Both models are made from porcelain-enameled steel and feature Bootz’s SYNIRON 2 insulation backing, which enhances heat retention and sound dampening. However, MauiCast tubs are generally deeper, offering a soaking depth of around 11.25 inches compared to BootzCast's 9 to 9.25 inches. This makes the MauiCast a better option for those seeking a more immersive and comfortable bathing experience. Additionally, MauiCast tubs are available in both 60" x 30" and 60" x 32" sizes, while BootzCast is typically limited to 60" x 30". In terms of weight and installation, both tubs are relatively lightweight—ranging from about 80 to 90 pounds—and include built-in leveling pads that eliminate the need for a mortar bed on level floors. The MauiCast tubs tend to be slightly heavier due to their larger dimensions and added depth. Price-wise, BootzCast is generally more budget-friendly, making it a good choice for standard renovations or secondary bathrooms, whereas MauiCast costs a bit more but offers added comfort features such as deeper soaking and lumbar support. Ultimately, the decision between the two comes down to budget and how important soaking depth and tub size are to your bathroom needs.

Not unless you're two very very tiny people. This tub is barely deep enough for a toddler to soak without overflowing.
