I was able to use my new shower this morning It tried to kill me first, though I never needed a bath mat before, but the new covering is slippery so when I stepped into the shower, my foot slid right out from underneath me. I caught myself against the tub with my other leg/knee, so thankfully didn't take a complete tumble. I have a giant bruise on my leg from it, though. I had purchased a bath mat a while ago, but never used it, so at least now my tub is safe. But OMG despite that, I love it! Having the window removed, plus the curved shower curtain rod, makes it feel like there's a ton more space. Now I just need to figure out how to adjust the stream on the shower head.
