The standard width of a freestanding tub is 27-32 inches. Many homeowners searching for an extra wide soaking tub - usually 36-40+ inches wide - want a stylish soaking tub that is large enough to accommodate two people. Others prefer a freestanding tub that is just slightly roomier than most - the 36 wide freestanding tub model is particularly popular since its added width makes it perfect for luxuriating in during a long soak - yet it won’t take up too much extra space in your bathroom.
