other inflatable tubs are much better  Dec 31, 2007 By bored99
This tub looks cute, but is really challenging to use--it seems like it was designed by someone who has never had to bathe a baby! I recommend the "Snug Tub Deluxe" instead, which is also inflatable and has all the benefits without the drawbacks.

I'm giving this 3 stars since it's worth buying if you don't have any other choices for an inflatable tub--these tubs are great when your baby has outgrown an infant tub and is able to sit unassisted but still not big enough for a full tub (since a slippery baby in a large, slippery tub is hard to hold, let alone wash!).

So this tub is better than nothing, but far more annoying than other tubs of this type. First, as other people have mentioned, the head and tail are enormous, which means that you can't fill it up directly from the tap! (The tail is smaller than the head, but still would require a tap that's at least 12 inches away from the wall.) I usually cup one hand at the bottom of the tap to make the water shoot out and into the tub (although a lot of it spills or runs down the tail of the duck and out into the main tub). Then I turn the faucet off so I can use both hands to wash baby. This means that I don't have clean water for rinsing the baby, so when baby is lathered I do an initial rinse with the soapy water, then sit the wet baby on my knee while I empty the tub (yes, my pants get soaked, so I just wear something that I plan to change later). There -is- a drain plug in the bottom of the duck tub, but it's far too slow, since the water pools under the tub, and the weight of the child and the water in the tub sort of pin it in place, preventing it from draining freely. So then I grab the duck by the neck (sad, but it's the easiest way to get a grip on the thing with just one hand, although I'm sure it means eventually the neck will weaken and leak) and flip it upside down to empty it... and in the process, the suction cup at the bottom of the tub inevitably sticks, so I have to jerk to loosen it (while keeping baby from jiggling too much). Phew! Then I repeat the process to fill the tub a little again (so baby won't get too cold), sit the baby in the tub, and rinse him off.

That suction cup is actually a feature to hang the tub on the far wall of your shower when you're finished... and is a nice feature on other inflatable tubs, but not useful here. This is due to the aforementioned enormous size... from the base of the tub to the top of the head is at least 2 feet, which means that if you're bathing in a standard tub (about 5 feet long), it takes up ALMOST HALF of your showering space! And since my shower head angles out rather than straight down, I usually stand in the middle of the tub (at 2.5 feet) ... and find myself bumping against the duck head about every 3 seconds. Not very fun. So I leave the duck tub on my bathroom floor rather than hanging it. Which means the only difference the suction cup makes is that it prevents me from emptying the tub easily while bathing the baby! Did I mention this tub was annoying? ;)

BTW, the duck head is cute, but when your child is sitting inside the tub they can't see it. And the quacking sound is surprisingly difficult to get--you have to reallllly squeeze in just the right spot to make it happen. But it does make both of my kids laugh :-P

Baby loves it...a couple of minor issues  May 16, 2007 By Jenn "Jennifer Golden"
My 4 month old, although he can not sit up on his own yet, loves this bathtub!! We use it for him to splash around and play in. Since I have to hold him upright, I can't bathe him in it yet. The suction cup for the duck to hang and dry from is useless; it will not hold the weight of the duck. Really this is not an issue at all, we just turn the duck upside down in the tub and let it drip dry. The "HOT" indication disk in the bottom of the tub stays indicating HOT even after the water has cooled. Again, not a big issue - I can stick my hand in and tell if it's body temp or not.

We love this tub!  Nov 10, 2006 By Mommy of Nicholas
Our son is 6 months old and weighs 20 pounds. He can sit up unassisted and he was getting too big for his Fisher Price Aquarium tub, which is also great, but for babies that can't sit up yet. We got this tub because we thought it looked more comfortable. It is! He loves to take a bath in it and he sits back and reclines against the duck's tail, which is a comfy pillow. We've had no problems with leaks. I noticed other reviews that mentioned problems with the temperature sensor. I didn't even know it had one. That was not one of the selling points for me. I don't need a sensor to tell me if the water is too hot for my baby. Whether it works or not, this is still a great tub at a great price. Highly recommended for babies that can sit up, otherwise I recommend the Aquarium tub by Fisher Price.
