In terms of fragility: cast iron bathtubs are the best, followed by wooden barrels and acrylic bathtubs, and ceramic bathtubs are the worst.
In terms of material weight: the cast iron bathtub is the heaviest, the ceramic bathtub is the second, the wooden barrel is the second, and the acrylic bathtub is the lightest.
In terms of ease of installation: Acrylic and wooden barrels are the easiest. As long as the specifications are suitable, they can be directly placed after buying them. Ceramic cylinders and cast iron cylinders are more complicated, which is also caused by the need to add skirts.
In terms of purchase cost: cast iron bathtubs are the most expensive, ceramic bathtubs are second, wooden barrels are more expensive, and acrylic bathtubs are the lowest.
