ANZZI MediTub Walk-In Jetted Tub vs Ella Deluxe 55 in. Walk-In Whirlpool and Air Bath

The Ella Deluxe is the stronger tub for most shoppers. It is longer, fills faster, drains through two gravity drains, includes a thermostatic faucet set and hand shower, and adds chromotherapy and aromatherapy. The ANZZI MediTub is a compact alcove tub with a stainless steel frame, a friction heater and a lower step-in, but it is shorter, has fewer jets and no faucet. Owners of both praise the massage systems; Ella buyers more often note the faster fill and drain, while ANZZI buyers like the smaller footprint.

• Choose the ANZZI MediTub if you have a tight alcove, want a compact 30 x 54 tub with a stainless steel frame and a friction heater, and plan to supply your own faucet.
• Choose the Ella Deluxe if you are taller or want more leg room, a fast-filling faucet set included, dual drains and the widest jet and light package.
