bathtub

A bathtub is a container made for taking baths or showers at home.

You can find bathtubs in most houses and apartments. They usually have high sides to prevent water from spilling out when you step into them, and are often equipped with taps that let you control the temperature and flow of the water. You might see them in bathrooms as standalone units or combined with a shower area, sometimes even just a single unit for both bathing and showering.
