4.0 out of 5 stars A lot of the complaints are silly, February 25, 2010

Just me - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dreambaby Deluxe Bath Seat (Baby Product)

Before I purchased this seat, I read-over all the reviews. Upon receiving the seat, I messed around with it quite a bit to "test" the most common complaints. There are a few funny quirks with it, but I think a majority of the complaints are due to improper use or unrealistic expectations. This seat is the best bath seat on the market; the only legitimate "issues" it has are issues that would be shared with most any bath seat because of the general nature of restraining a floating child. I'm going to addess the most common complaints based on my experience.

1. The seat can float and it moves or doesn't stick: Well, sort of. If you stick the seat to the tub and then fill the tub with water, it traps air under the seat, which can break the force of the suction cups and make the seat float. However, if you partially fill the tub before putting the seat in, you trap much less air underneath and it sticks just fine. Once the air is out, the seat barely moves at all. If you push firmly on the seat, you can get it to slide a little, but that's kind of how suction cups operate when they are wet. I don't think the movement is worth the worry; my 2-yr old braced himself on the seat to stand up and it didn't move.

2. The plastic is hard and cuts into the skin, leaving marks: There are no sharp edges on this seat and it doesn't really dig into the skin. The one issue I did see is that the leg openings in the t-bar are small and designed to securely hold the lower thigh or knee. If the baby is sitting all the way back in the seat, with his back pressed against the back-rest portion, this is not an issue. BUT, as anyone with an infant can attest, a baby's bottom wants to float/slide forward. My son ended up with his chunky thighs squeezed in there because he wouldn't sit back in the seat. It was tight fit, as my son is 20lbs, and he did end up with red marks on his legs. This bothered me, however, he could have cared less. He was so happy "free-sitting" in the water that he didn't seem to notice the tight fit. Also, I think it's important to realize that the seat is a restraint designed to keep a very buoyant baby from floating or tipping over. Please tell me what seat restraint wouldn't leave some red marks? Or what design would prevent the baby from sliding forward?

3. The suction cups break off: This is the most ridiculous complaint that I read. First of all, the cups are SCREWED to the bottom of the seat. Like, with metal screws. I'm sure if you just grabbed the seat and ripped it out of the tub, you *might* be able to tear the suction cups off. However, I think we all know you aren't supposed to remove suction cups that way. The seat has four large cups, each with an easily-accessable release strip. If you pull on each strip, the suction cups pop right off.

4. The T-bar locks are difficult to operate: Freshly out of the box, these latches are incredibly difficult to slide. I was anticipating a huge struggle when it came time to get my son out of the tub. However, I discovered the that latches slide so much easier once they are wet. It's still slightly awkward to unlatch because of the angle, but not impossible or overly aggravating. And, honestly, I would rather have the latches be a little tight then have them pop open on their own.

Bottom line: This seat makes bath time soooo much easier and is well worth the purchase (BTW, I got it for $15 less at Wal-Mart). Four stars only because the locks are a little annoying.

3.0 out of 5 stars Served its purpose..., October 30, 2009

Not an amazing product but it certainly solved our "We sit down in the bath tub" problem when our little one insisted on standing everywhere even though he had no balance or sense of fear. The plastic isn't very comfortable and the edges can be tough on a little naked body. The toys don't do anything and the suction isn't that great (the suction cups will even pop off) but baby's weight will keep it in place. Again, not amazing but very helpful considering the other options out there - and there really aren't any. If you're wanting a basic restraint to help out with a dangerous wiggler, this seat is fine.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great! have to have tub ring! #1 bathing ring!!!, July 12, 2008

This ring is great! My sister in law had one and i bathed my nephew in it and i loved that the front folds down. My first son in the round rings would get his chunky little legs stuck. In this you dont have to worry about that cause it folds down and you can pick the baby stright up. So there is no fighting to make sure they dont get stuck. I just bought this ring for my sister as her daughter is ready to use this in the tub. I will get it back when she is done as i am 7 1/2 mths prego. This is the best ring and it is a MUST HAVE!!
