Pros: It's a take anywhere tub which we found very safe and convenient.
Cons: We had to look for it, since not all baby stores carry this brand.
The Bottom Line: This is one of the best baby products we bought. I have recommended it to strangers in the store and I have given several as shower gifts.

| mercyp's Full Review: Kids Ii Soft & Safe Inflatable Baby Bath Tub |
This is one of the best baby purchases we ever made. I had seen very expensive models in specialty catalogs, but finally I found this one at a local major chain store whose name starts with a W and ends with Almart. Our daughter was too active for a conventional hard plastic tub, but not yet ready to sit in a full size bath tub because she was still shaky when it came to sitting up by herself. This was the perfect solution. She had room to sit and play with bath toys, but if she fell over she was caught by the inflatable sides of the tub. When I took a shower, I simply put this tub in our bathtub, put her in it with some toys, and showered right next to her. It was great, because she was contentedly playing with the water and the toys while I got to do some pampering activities like shampooing my hair or shaving my legs! Hey, those become real luxuries when you're a new mom taking care of a baby!
We also used this tub out of the water. I would set her in this in the livingroom and put regular toys in there. Like I said, she wasn't really good at sitting up yet, so if she lost her balance she was caught by the inflatable sides and didn't hit the floor.
Here's a hint. I bought a suction cup hook and stuck it to the wall of the shower. When I pulled the plug to drain the water after her bath, I used the drain hole to hang this tub on the hook to let it dry. There was still room in there to let it hang up whenever we weren't using it, including while the rest of us showered.
WARNING: I have met other moms who have used this product as a kind of boat in their swimming pools. That is a big NO-NO! The bottom is not rigid and could cause the child to drown, as it clearly states on the product packaging and on the tub itself.
