I love love loved mine!
I found that it lived up to all of the positives built up around it and think it was one of the best things we bought for bub. I swear that everytime we used the tub, DH and I both said to eachother - soooo glad we got this!
I loved it because
- it uses much less water than a regular bath - good for the environment and for your back when carrying the bath
- water was easily transported to the garden afterward for plants
- we could bath in any room of the house we wanted, or outside when the weather was nice
- the bath sits at a really handy height for you (with the stand)
- DD would sit in the bath happily for AGES, chatting to herself, playing with her feet/toys, soaking, splashing etc
- DD definitley appeared calm in the tub in the early days, I attributed this to the similarity to the similar sensation of being inutero
- DD seemed to develop really strong legs early on as she really enjoyed pushing up in the tub to standing. With her buoyancy in the water it was easier than pushing up on dry land and she was immensely proud of herself for achieving this!
- We were able to use the tub up to about 10 months, then easily moved into the big bath as she could sit and crawl about the big bath easily
- I could travel with it really easily, therefore keep the same routine for DD
