Does the Kohler Avec fit a standard 60-inch alcove?

Yes. It is 60 inches long and 32 inches wide, the common alcove opening. Check your rough-in and framing before ordering.

How deep is the soaking water?

The soaking depth is about 13-1/4 inches, with a capacity near 55 gallons to the overflow. That is deeper than many tubs of the same footprint.

Is the drain included?

The tub uses a toe-tap drain, but the drain kit is often sold separately. Confirm what your listing includes before install.

Is it better than a cast iron tub?

It is much lighter and easier to install, and it soaks deeper than many cast iron models. Cast iron is more rigid and holds heat longer.

Does it come with a shower or tile flange?

No. It is a soaking tub without a shower option, and a tile flange is not part of the tub. Plan waterproofing for an alcove shower setup.

Our take on the Kohler Avec 60 in. Alcove Bath

The Kohler Avec is a 60 by 32 inch acrylic alcove soaking tub with an integral apron and a toe-tap drain. It holds about 55 gallons and offers a 13-1/4 inch soaking depth, which is deeper than many builder-grade tubs of the same footprint. The acrylic shell keeps it lighter than cast iron, so it is easier to handle on a remodel. It suits standard 60-inch alcove openings and buyers who want a deeper soak without moving plumbing. Owners rate it well overall, though some mention the acrylic flexes and the smooth floor can feel slippery.
