DreamLineSlimLine Single Threshold Shower Base in White | DLT-1136480

There's not much to a shower pan but this one goes beyond the basics. They've integrated some supports in the base, essentially cylindrical slices of a large diameter PVC pipe, to give support and distribute weight to the point the manufacturer does not require it to be set in cement (though that's still a smart idea). I've installed a few Dreamline bathroom products and have been impressed enough with their quality and value that I now recommend the brand.I am a contractor and not been compensated in any way for this review.

The shower base we ordered was 48x36 with the drain in the middle. The base is solid and well built but the drain is not in the middle. It was off by 6”’s on the 36” width. It was centered on the 48” side. Thankfully we have an experienced contractor who was able to relocate the drain with no problem. If you happen to get one with the drain not centered, and you’re a DIYer beware! You may need a plumber.

This is a very solid, nicely made unit. and looks very sharp in my newly renovated bathroom. I'd give it five stars but I wish it had a bit more slope. This speaks more to my own failing as a DIY-er, but the slope allows zero room for error in installation. Be sure this unit it totally and completely level in all directions before finalizing installation or you may end up with a corner that stays wet. Somewhere along the line, what I thought was a totally level installation got very slightly out of level in one corner. This is my own fault, of course, but a more aggressive slope would have compensated for it.

This is a really solid shower base. It’s worth the money. The only issue is the hole for the drain is about 1/2 inch further out from the back than the drawing shows. Just measure and double check before installing the drain. Otherwise a really solid base!

not describing myself but the product....excellent quality.
