How is this better than the plastic yellow duck bath? I am trying to sort out the difference and figure out what to get for our 9 month old daughter.

We like this one for our grandson because it's soft, and not hard and cold like other tubs we tried. It also kind of fits around him to help support a bit, and isn't slippery on the bottom. He loves it!

I think the plastic duck bath would be better because it holds water in and doesn't require the whole bath tub to be full to use. But like my review said, my daughter hated this bath because the water never stayed warm inside of it.

I'm not familiar with the plastic yellow duck bath. I like that it's cloth so I don't worry about him slipping on plastic. I also like that it comes with a hanger tp dry it. I've had it a couple weeks and still love it. It's great for in the bath and out as a sitting support

Not sure about the plastic duck, but I can give you a good and bad. Good is that it does a nice job of containing baby and leaves room for playing. Bad is after awhile, even though it drains well, it becomes a little musty. We never figured out how to clean it, and soapy water builds up over time.

Personally, I don't think you need a faucet protector at all. This bathtub is best for smaller babies ( up until about 14 lbs in my opinion. Once they start to try to sit up and bob forward it's time to switch to the next tub Anyway. (when my girls were between 4 and 6 months we switched to a mini inflatable tub before the big tub.) my girls both really enjoyed this tub and bath time was always a breeze. I never had any issues with flailing arms.

I prefer the kidsme. The smaller area for food fits his mouth better which means less mess. Plus its easier to clean. I have both but don't bother with the mesh.

I think this tub would work best for a child that can sit up and catch themselves since it is pretty slippery. I would get an infant tub instead. They have some that have the slings for when they're really little and then you can take it out to use when they're a little bigger so it lasts longer.

Boba washes very well, but it is best to spot clean it. The foot straps make it more comfortable for older babies. Helps prevent the pins and needles feeling in their legs. Very often you see parents holding their child's feet anyway... this way you don't have to. I found this link helpful when I was deciding: http://www.theportablebaby.com/carrierfeatures.htmlI also like that the Boba wraps up on your waist (like a fanny pack). Not too cute, but practical.You have great support too.Good luck!

We used this and the fisher price. The fisher price potty was uncomfortable for my child (18 months at the time) to sit on. The splash guard is wider, forcing her legs apart more than was comfy for her. My child likes leaning back on the babybjorn, which she could not do with the fisher price one. The babybjorn potty is very versatile, my baby used it from 6 months and still likes it at 5 years even though she has long been potty trained.

The bottom of the seat has that green foot so it might slip in the tub. The Bebe Pod or Bumbo would do better in the tub. Hope this helps! We have this seat and the Bebe Pod and our Little Man loves them both. We use the Bebe Pod for when we go to restaurants :-) Our Little Guy is 4.5 months old

I used the tub only without accessories. I was looking for a large tub for then my 3 months old son. I returned it bc it was not large enough. When filled with water, the plastic of the tub is slippery, but it is always like that with most tubs. When I bathe my son I always support him by holding him and most of the time I have help.

I actually had to look up the Blooming Bath because I didn't know what it was. I guess the difference is that with the 4moms tub the baby is actually sitting in their own bathtub, so they can splash around if they want, instead of on a sponge as with the Blooming Bath. Also it has the thermometer that is supposed to automatically tell you water temp.

I did not use a baby bjorn potty seat, so I couldn't compare, but my little one found the lil loo potty easy to use. We had some success potty training until we had a grease fire, and the cleaning company threw it away. We now have a potty seat that is the Safety 1st brand, and she doesn't seem to like using it as much as she did the lil loo potty seat.

Natalie - i'm trying to find the best tub to bathe my 2.5 yo with my 3 month old. Did this work for you or did you go with something different? Thanks!

We bathed him in the kitchen sink and had a pull out faucet. Baby that fits in here wouldn't really be able to change the temp at that age. We loved it til he was over a year. Then we switched to a tub in tub.

So far it has been dishwasher safe for me. We also use it in the tub. My 9month old loves it

I would use this pad until she is able to sit up on her own in her bath. I used the bath mat in a small tub for both my kids. It is comfy and insulates the little ones by keeping the water warm.

Still using ours at 9 months old. She can roll over, but doesn't try to do so in the tub. She loves to just lay there and have water poured over her! And when that part of the bath is done we sit her up on it and she just splashes around.

Nothing will ever be good enough for our little ones. That being said I warm it with water first and then then used it. I haven't had an issue. This fits in the sink also ,which is great for bathing in the first few months.

Once my baby sat up she couldn't use this seat. Sitting in the bath alone was slippery. And dangerous! I bought a disney blow up bath tub. It's $11 on here. It's for traveling but it fits perfect in the tub. My baby can sit and move around in it and I don't have to worry about her slipping and hitting her head.
