I may be buying a new bath soon and while in Homebase on other business I picked up a catalogue and noticed that a number of their baths were steel . Can anyone tell me the advantages /disadvantages of steel against plastic(?) ..........I imagine they are sturdier but do they chip easily .??? How much heavier are they size for size.I live in a second floor flat ,not that I will be carrying it up myself ..

Last discussed on 4 March:
Steel:
Advantages: Strong, sturdy, will last a long time
Disadvantages: Will chip if hit hard, discolours with incorrect cleaning chemicals
Plastic:
Advantages: Cheap, warm to touch
Disadvantages: Surface scratches very quickly, cracks easily, bath flexes when full.
