A bathtub is an object that appears in most of The Sims games. The primary use is improving a Sim's hygiene, as well as other traits or moods. Only children and older Sims can independently use the object, while toddlers^[TS2][TS4] and pets^{[TS:U][TS2:P][TS3:P][TS4:C&D]} require the help of those Sims. Bathtubs are generally 2x1 objects, but The Sims, The Sims Deluxe Edition, The Sims 3: High-End Loft Stuff, and The Sims 4 have high-end bathtubs that are 2x2.

Some bathtubs have shower fixtures, but most do not.

The SimsEdit

A Sim who uses a bathtub may sometimes leave a puddle of water on the floor in front of the tub, which will have to be cleaned. Children will almost always leave puddles. Bathtubs in The Sims (and expansions) also provide Comfort.

Justa BathtubEdit

Justa Bathtub
There's nothing like improving your hygiene with a long, hot, soothing bath after a hard day. The immediate effects of the Justa are a general sense of well-being, relaxation, lowered tension and stress. In addition there is the psychological effect of the pleasure of bathing. Unique lozenge shape and "one size fits all" design makes the Justa bathtub a top seller.

The Sims 2Edit

Bathtubs in The Sims 2 (and expansions) also provide comfort. All bathtubs allow Sims to take bubble baths, which give more Comfort, but are slightly less efficient at providing Hygiene. The shower feature of shower-tubs gives more Hygiene than a bath (and takes less time) but does not give Comfort. Hygiene scores are given as Bath/Bubble bath/Shower (for shower-tubs). Comfort scores are given as Bath/Bubble bath.

Sims with 8 or more playful points can play in a bathtub, where they will pretend to be a pirate captain on a boat.

Bathtubs are used to bathe toddlers. If Pets is installed, bathtubs can also be used to bathe dogs. It's best to have some extra space in front of the bathtub in order to allow pets to properly route in and out of the object, and to place the faucet far enough away from the door to allow Sims to wash the dog.

The Sims 3Edit

Bathtubs in The Sims 3 also provide stress relief. Sims can take bubble baths like in The Sims 2, but must first purchase the "World's Brew Bubble Bath" object from any grocery store and then place it on the sides of the tub for the option to become available. Sims can also purchase a rubber ducky for a positive "Duck Time" moodlet. Sims will use a bathtub as a seating surface for eating, when there are no other available on the lot.

The Sims 4Edit

In The Sims 4, bathtubs function similarly to how they did in the previous games. Expensive bathtubs provide a +2 happy moodlet, while cheaper ones do not. Like in The Sims 2, Sims can bathe toddlers. If The Sims 4: Spa Day is installed, Sims can take mud baths and add body soaks to a bathtub. Discover University adds the ability to WooHoo in most shower-tubs.

Much like The Sims 3, bathtubs in The Sims 4 can upgraded to be equipped with a clean coat (increase hygiene gain rate), sturdy faucet (reduce breakage rate) or be self-cleaning. Some tubs will remain functional when a lot is off-the-grid.
