Malibu Naples 72" Drop-In Bathtub vs Swiss Madison Voltaire 72" Drop-In Bathtub
Both are 72 x 36 inch acrylic drop-in soakers, so the decision comes down to depth, drain flexibility and weight. The Malibu Naples is deeper (22 in overall, 95 gal to overflow) and ships with the waste and overflow, which suits a serious soaker and a center-drain rough-in. The Voltaire is lighter (71 lb), has a reversible drain for flexible plumbing and a 15.5 in soak depth, and its fiberglass-reinforced shell is a common pick for remodels where the drain position isn't settled. Owners of thin acrylic tubs often note flex and heat loss; the heavier Naples shell and the reinforced Voltaire shell both address this differently.
- Choose the Malibu Naples if you want a deeper soak, a center drain and the waste and overflow included in the box.
- Choose the Voltaire if your drain location is still open or off-center and you want a lighter tub that is easier to set and level.
