Can one drain the tub easily with little one sitting in it at stage 3 & 4 (no sling)?

The chair pops out easily. I just take it out otherwise you cannot get for the drain.

Nope. The drain is located below the green seat, so you'd have to take the seat out to drain it. I lift my LO out and rinse her in the shower; then I just flip tub over to drain it. It's a vey comfy tub, however. LO loves it If you're looking for an easy to drain one, I definitely recommend the 4moms, also sold by Amazon. I have one at my mother's house, the drain is located at LO's feet. It really depends on your bathing situation. If you bathe LO in shower or tub, the easiest way to drain is flipping the tub over after you've finished bathing and dressing LO. This really is a comfy tub, and my LO's favorite. Nope.

I wouldn't, but she can go in the bath tub. So you can hand wash her easy enough. Just don't squeeze out her body. My husband didn't know that you can only squeeze water out of the head but the body needs to drain and he rung her out...she is very floppy now and doesn't hold her shape and her pants always fall down. Our other one has not been squeezed or rung out and she is fine. We love these dolls.

Yes, on the bottom of the pool, won't drain that way. Let the air out of the tubes, its easier.

I'd say probably not. My 15 month old is 33 inches and 24lbs now and I think we may only have a another month or so before we have to transition to just using the actual bath tub. She is fine sitting in it but I can't lay her back properly to wash her hair. She's all scrunched up. We've been using this since about 7 months so it's given us a good run. Really an excellent tub that I will definitely be using for baby #2 until it's outgrown again.

I have not had to transition yet, but my 3 month old is starting to wiggle himself almost out! Since he cannot support his head yet, I will probably buy another baby tub that has a removable mesh lining. I have really liked this tub though!!!

I don't know.. but, I would think the steps would be too light to stay under water if tub is not drained. Also, tub might be slippery if water is drained and step could slide tho it does have rubber on the bottom. Don't think I would trust it myself.

in a standard tub the 3rd set of legs is outside the tub. So it would be dependent on the width of the stallIf it is a walk in shower, you wouldnt' need the slide in part you could just sit. I don't know which you have.

It is a little tricky to get back in, so of you can't easily do it with your child I. It, you could try one of those $2 rubber drain plugs you can buy for a regular tub or sink.

Yes should be. Probably best to be either sitting with support or sitting alone. I used it when my daughter was 6 mts. Didn't use it long though. Hard to rinse her off cause water gets soapy and no drain. You have to either take her out and dump water then rinse or just sit her out and rinse.

We switched around 7 months. Combination of LO wanting to sit up and we wanted to give him room to play. We thoroughly enjoyed the tub and it was perfect for the early months when LO is some small.

No. The infant insert is separate. I still love this tub though. I never did the insert. I put a hand towel in the bottom and fill the water up a couple inches with another hand towel rolled under her head. It works great and she lives having the freedom of kicking her legs and feet. This was the best non toxic baby tub I could find on the market. I hope you like it too!

This will work for at least another year...they will fit in it until they can sit in tub safely without assistance. Also check the LeachCo bath flipper -- just got that yesterday for my 8 month old and I really like it. It's much smaller and isn't as cumbersome to drain. I had the bath and bumper for my now 3 year old.

I used the sling from birth until my baby could somewhat support herself in the reclined position. She is currently sitting on her own (7 months) and I still use it, since I put it in the tub and don't want to fill the whole tub and it helps her to have something to grab onto. She likes the water up to her belly (it keeps her warm). I plan on using it for awhile yet.

No but if your baby can sit up, they shouldn't move much. It's a fairly small tub and worked well for us.

I guess it would depend on what type of faucet you have, but I've never had an issue and I've used the puj tub with 2 babies now. They were so little and weren't coordinated or strong enough to reach or hit the faucet, let alone change the temperature. And the faucet doesn't get in the way of bathing since they are laying back in the tub. I've never found it hard to rinse the babies but each person has their own method, I'm sure.

This tub is for a baby who can sit up unassisted; it wouldn't be safe otherwise.

I have bathed my 3.7 yr old in the tub with his now 3 month old brother. They were both a little younger at the time. Big brother knows the water has to be lower while his brother is bathing and we just fill the tub up more after the baby is done and out. I just drain the pad and hang it on the shower head to finish drying before filling. His big brother loves to help washing his brother with me so it works out well.
