Great Purchase

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this for my son, he was born early and is still having trouble keeping his balance while sitting and I couldn't let him sit in our tub because it is extremely slippery.The other tub I had for him only had a small area for him to sit on that would keep him from slipping and he loves to splash so he was always spinning around in the tub and would end up falling over.
So this tub came with the "Sit-me-up" support, I love it. It makes it so I don't have to worry about him sliding and falling down in the water. It has little drainage holes to make sure it dries out well and easy in and out of the tub, I was able to do it with my son in my arms.
This tub comes with a built in hook to hang it up for drying which is really nice because I can dry the tub and still have room for my daughter to take her shower before bedtime.
It also came with a squeeze bottle, when I read this I thought "an empty soap bottle, what am I going to do with that?" Well its a bottle that you can fill with water and it has holes in the top that make it so I could "shower" my son with the flow rate of water that I felt was right and for us that's a BIG deal, my kids have always hated water on their faces, and no matter how hard I try I can never get them to keep their heads tilted back long enough for the water to run back and not in their eyes.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Awesome Baby Tub!
on August 31, 2015

from Lakeville, MA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a big fan of this baby tub! It fits great in my sink and bath tub. While the newborn sling and the infant insert are great what really made me love this tub is the Sit-Me-Up Support. My son didn't want to recline to take a bath any longer, but was not quite steady enough to sit in our regular bath tub without slipping and falling. With the Sit-Me-Up support he can sit in the tub, feels secure, and really enjoys his bath now. He also enjoys playing with the whale toy that was included and being rinsed by the squeeze bottle. I also love that there is a hook affixed to the tub so that it can be hung to dry. While this tub is roomy, it also fits nicely in my bathroom closet.
My only issue is that the plug for the tub is located under the Sit-Me-Up support. I like to drain the soapy water during bath time and cannot do that when the drain is under the seat. I would purchase this tub for a friend in the future.

Excellent product that grows with your baby

from Buffalo, NY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am really satisfied with my purchase of the 4-in-1 Sling tub. This product is an all in one bathtub that grows with my baby and I do not have to go out and buy a new bathtub once she is able to sit up on her own. I love the parts that can be removed so that when she gets bigger she will be able to sit up all by herself in it! I did not get a chance to get to use it when she was newborn, but the sling that is included with this product is an excellent way to bathe your baby safely and they are very comfortable in it as well. I highly recomment this product to any new moms out there who are looking for an all in one tub that is perfect size for your little one!

Superb baby tub!

from Baton Rouge, LA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the Sit-Me-Up support feature in the tub for my 9 month old. I tried to use the tub without the support, but she slid a little, so we're not quite ready for that yet. It works so much better than my previous tub that reclined & had a "bump" to support the baby's bottom. My baby loved the toy & the sprayer that comes with the tub. I really like the larger sitting area in this tub for when my baby can sit up better.

Amazing Transitiining Tub
on August 31, 2015
Posted by: Kburns147
from So. California
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am only going to give this tub an overall rating of four stars because it does not fit in my standard size kitchen sink. Other than this its a great tub! The included water toys keep my daughter engaged and she enjoys her bath time so much more she the water pour through them. The removable seat is my favorite. It offers a great support while my daughter needs it and is so easy to remove for cleaning. This tub is great for anyone and it grows with your child so you don't have to waste water using a bathroom tub when they get older and no longer need the support seat. We only used the sling once because my daughter was in th higher end of the weight limit but it was definitely durable and secure.

Happier bath time!

from Springfield, MA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter just turned one but I am not ready to put him in the big tub just yet. This tub is perfect for babies of all stages from newborn to toddler which is so awesome. Bath time has always been a challenge for us but since we started using this tub my daughter actually enjoys bath time now! We use the seat feature & she loves sitting up in it & splashing in the water. The colors are bright & gender neutral. One of my favorite features is the hook that allows you to hang the tub up after use so it can dry. It also came with a few toys with is a really nice added bonus. I have used other infant tubs & this is by far my favorite one. It is so versatile & easy to use. I highly recommend this tub.

This is the only tub you need
on September 1, 2015

from South Florida
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish I would have bought this tub first. Instead, we tried a few others that were pretty popular and had good reviews, but they didn't have everything that we needed. You have no idea how many tubs I donated to charity or gave away because they didn't meet our needs. I liked this tub so much that I jumped at the chance to get one for a friend who was expecting.
First, we needed a cup to rinse our little boy's hair (and of course baby needs a bath toy). With other tubs that is often an extra purchase. This tub comes with a little scoop and squirt bottle.
The sling is really a must have for a newborn. I don't know how you would wash them and rinse them without it. This one is durable, easy to clean, and it sort of acts like a little hammock.
The sling is great until about 4-5 months, but then you start to end up with a slippery baby who thinks that they are a fish. This is where the sit-me-up support is AMAZING!!! No other tub has something like this that I could find. A lot of them have a slant, but once your baby is starting to sit mostly unassisted they get really topple happy. Once you have the little seat insert on this tub you will never go back to another tub. Until the baby is big enough to use the seat, the little seat makes the tub smaller. It doesn't seem like a big deal but with another tub you'll be shocked at how small your baby looks. The smaller tub size just made me feel a little better.
Of course, after the sling and the seat, then you can use this as a regular smaller tub until your little one is big enough to go into the regular tub.
PROS:
* A tub with a sling is a must have for any newborn. The sling is super durable and I tossed it in the washing machine with no problem.
* The little squirt bottle can be used to rinse baby's hair and play, so one less thing to buy. The whale cup has holes in it, so you this isn't going to work as a rinse cup (it's really for play).
* The sit me up seat is the COOLEST feature. I love that thing. Once you have this feature, it's hard to understand the appeal of any other tub.
* The tub is white, which means you can clean it with bleach without worrying about any fading. Sometimes a diaper free baby means bleach is a must (if you get what I'm saying). The whole thing is hard plastic which I preferred (easier to clean).

CONS:
* I really would prefer if the little drain was on the side (it's on the bottom).
* It has a hook so you can hang it up on a towel rack. I think it was a little heavy to hang up but maybe if you have a sturdy towel rod or shower rod (ours is tension based).
* While this CAN fit across a double kitchen sink because it has a pedestal, it did not fit ours. Our sink sets down below our counter so it made it uneven. Not a deal breaker for us because I wasn't going to bathe our little guy in the sink anyways.
* This isn't a cutesy tub. It's pretty simple in design. I preferred that, but obviously if you want a theme or gender-specific pattern, this probably isn't going to be your favorite.
* Some people might not prefer to have a hard plastic tub. If you love everything else about this tub, then I would suggest buying one of the sponge bath cushions to go with this. Obviously a big pro to me is that this box comes with everything you need for that first bath and beyond, so the idea of buying another part would be a con for me. But, the fact that it is such a simple fix means I feel comfortable giving this as a gift.

Great tub! Nice design
on September 2, 2015
Posted by: pri8608
from Sterling, VA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this tub for my 6 month old and when I first saw it, I loved it. The design and colors were very eye-catching. It was easy to understand the directions of the different ways to use it and easy to fit the insert in the baby tub. My son was very interested in the water toy that it came with and I loved the spray bottle because I was able to use it while washing his hair. I tried bathing him in both positions (sitting on the seat as well as using the seat as support for prevention of sliding while he lays in the tub). Both positions worked great. He was very comfortable and it was easy for me to bathe him. The only thing I would say that I didn't like (which is why I gave 4 instead of 5 stars) was that it was hard to drain the tub if I had to while using it because the drain stopper was located under the seat insert which I couldn't reach unless I completely removed the insert. That's just a bit inconvenient if I have my baby in the tub and needed to drain the tub a little to add more water. Overall, I really enjoyed this tub!
I would recommend this to a friend!
