Tub in the Shower.

I've been seeing a lot more renovations (and new construction) where the tub and shower are in the same glass enclosure.  I can't decide if I like it.  It LOOKS cool.  It's kind of a space saver.  But how practical is it really?  I posted a poll on my Facebook Page and asked my readers if they liked it or not.  The overall consensus was that it was "weird" and "unpractical".  

One reader writes:

I love my bath time, but I don't want to have to dry the entire area to be comforable! Not a fan.

Here is a plan I drew up for a family member.  They had a TEEEE-niny pair of bathrooms, back to back.  They wanted to have a shower and a 6' tub in the master bath, so I drew this up as an option. They didn't choose it :-)

So, what do you think?  Like or Dislike?
