My baby is 6 months old and can almost sit in his little tub unassisted. Will this work for him?

I don't know. I never could get my granddaughter to use it. So, I have no real experience in how it works or doesn't work.

Got this for my son when he was around the same age. While it did fit him, he would not allow it to stay on his head and would pull it off. To this day- he is almost 17 months now, he will not allow me to use it! It's a great idea of a product, but so far it hasn't been very useful. Perhaps I will try again when he is old enough to understand that it will keep water out of his eyes.

To be honest it may be a little too big for his head. On my tiny 4 year old daughter (29 lbs) it barely makes enough of a seal. You could always try it out and keep it for when it does fit. It's worth it!

It's great for a newborn. Actually, the nonslip surface made me feel much more confident than the little plastic whale tub we originally had, and seems more comfy, too. Also, it sits low to the ground so that baby is more in the water than in other bath seats, and thus stays warmer. The only catch is that you need to put it in the actual tub (vs. the sink).

Depends on how big your sink is. My sink was too small and it is double tub. It is more for a bathtub though. I highly recommend this tub for the older months when you have to put them in a tub. The seat feature is awesome for when they sit up. If your baby is still small enough for sink just buy a cheap one for the sink but buy this for when they can sit up! You will be thankful.

According to the manual: This Tub is intended for babies from birth to the time just before they can sit up on their own (approximately 5-8 months old). So as Samantha said, it depends on your little one. My kiddos each used it until around 6-7 months. My nephew was ready to take on the world and wouldn't sit still in it at 4 months. My niece used it at 1. Hope that helps!

My little man is 8 months and still uses this. Not sure about length/weight, but based on our experience I suspect you could use it until they are 1 or a bit older, and by then you are probably ready to move to just using the regular tub and a safety seat.

Hi, Kristen. I have to agree with the other reviewers who stated that your wee one is just too small to fit the seat and also would need to sit stably on her own. The float does not have support for stabilization for a 3 month old baby.

I see the previous poster gave you the dimensions. I just wanted to say that my 18 lb 5 month old still fits on it perfectly. We will use it until he can sit up better. I position him on it so that his legs hang off at the knee and he loves to kick and splash at the running water. And we have a standard tub and it fits in the bottom with no problem.

Probably not. Are you talking baby or toddler? We've been using the regular bathtub for a few months now and he's currently 27 pounds.

Since this has a wedge in the middle I would say this would be good for a baby that needs help sitting, or has just recently mastered sitting. Once they are standing/stepping they want to move around too much in the tub for this one to work. That milestone is different for each baby but for my family this is younger than 9 months.

Whatever age your little one can safely play with toys in the tub. I'd make sure your child can sit unsupported, but always supervised.

HI, we have 6 months old boy and he still fits in, but we think after another month or two its gonna be too small for him.

I used this for my soon until he was almost 7 months and sitting up on his own very well. We didn't have to transition out of it before then because he never tried to sit up or roll off of the Angelcare Support. When he was ready, we moved him to a blow up ducky bath from Target. He loves it. He sits up well in it because its small and the sides help support him and I just stay right there to make sure he doesn't accidently fall. Easy transition. If I put him in the regular tub, I get in with him just to make sure he doesn't fall over.

Yes!! We ordered it for vacation last year and our LO was only 6 months old. Worked great for us! I think as long as baby is sitting up it should be fine! Hope this helps! :)

You should most likely ask your pediatrician. I would say it's okay once the baby is able to support themselves in a sitting position.

Yes, this tub is suitable from infant to early toddler years. There are two positions that can be used, depending on whether your baby can sit on their own or not. My baby is 8 weeks old and I use the reclining position. I place a small towel on the reclining area to cushion it and to keep her from sliding around. The raised area in the middle ensures the baby is secure. I love the design and feel it is very safe.

Baby can sit up and lean forward and splash but then she starts to reach/lean in somewhat unsafe ways. We used this with our daughter until she was about 18 months old.

As long as she can sit up on her own, hold on to the handles as needed she should be fine. My daughter and I started about age 2.5 and I felt she was secure. Good luck!
