Luxury Steam Cabin Shower Plays MP3s While You Wash
Ah, yes. A shower worth drooling over. Villeroy Boch's Aquagate steam cabin goes on my Christmas list. This bad boy not only gives you eight side jets, overhead spray, and the cozy warmth of a steam room, but it has a touch screen console that lets you tune into your favorite radio station or dial up your mp3 collection (which is loaded with a memory stick via a USB slot, preferably when the shower is off). And, of course, where would a luxury shower be without aroma- and light-therapy? The Aquagate has four different programs (Wake Up, Relax, Fitness, and Feel) to suit your moods and the time of day. Other perks are pop-up seating, a "Scottish shower" feature, and a "cool down" program in case you get a little too steamy. The steam cabin is available in a free-standing or built-in unit, and prices start at about $18,500, so start raiding the kids' piggy banks.
