Which is better for a small bathroom?

The Auvergne, at 53 by 27 inches, fits a standard alcove. The Avora needs room for a surround and a 60-inch extension box, so measure before committing.

Is the Avora worth the extra money?

Only if you want the install done for you. At $16,000 versus $1,183.92, most of the gap pays for labor, Eco-Stone walls and the longer warranty, not the tub.

Which has the better warranty?

The Avora. It carries a lifetime warranty on installation and the door seal and 25 years on the tub body. The Auvergne has a one-year limited warranty.

Which is safer to step into?

The Avora has a stated 4.5-inch threshold plus a U grab bar at the entry. The Auvergne has a door with a hand-lever lock, grab bars and a non-slip floor, but no published threshold height.

Do both include a faucet?

Yes. The Auvergne includes a deckmount 7 GPM quick-fill faucet and hand sprayer. The Avora includes a 5-piece bath and shower combo faucet.

The Avora: 25 air jets plus 10 hydro jets with an inline heater. The Auvergne has 10 massage jets and no heater.
