Three-Stage Design
The Aquarium Bath Center features an innovative three-stage design that grows with your baby. Each stage offers a different washing position and use for the soft sling that comes with the tub--a special accessory that helps baby get squeaky clean in safe, secure comfort. Appropriate for newborns weighing up to 10 pounds, the first stage involves attaching the sling to both ends of the tub to create a hammock-style resting place for baby. This platform cradles baby's entire body and keeps him above the tub's water level. For infants, the sling attaches only to the narrow end of the tub, supplying trunk and neck support for those children who cannot yet sit up unassisted. In addition, an included headrest for both the newborn and infant stages provides extra support.

Finally, in the toddler position, the sling can be moved to the wide end of the tub or removed altogether, giving baby more room and offering back support for sitting upright.

Perks for Parents and Children
The tub comes with three aquarium-theme toys to keep baby engaged and interested as well as comfortable in the water: a pouring cup, a sprinkling toy for water play, and a fish-shaped toy with a thermometer for testing the water temperature. Soft cushions along the upper lip of the tub supply a resting position for adult arms and wrists.

The Aquarium Bath Center measures 8.8 x 18 x 31 inches (WxHxD) and weighs 4.4 pounds.
What's in the Box
Tub, sling, support pad, and a variety of accessories.

5.0 out of 5 stars great tub January 19, 2010

By Candice Ball

I have a 1 month old and she loves taking baths in this tub. It works well and so far we've had no problems with it. It is much more durable than some of the other tubs we've seen on the market and in my opinion is worth the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars 4 tubs review April 22, 2012

By Mira Timmons

I've had 4 tubs in my daughters little one year of life! In this order:

1. The First Year's Infant To Toddler Tub with Sling. Purchased on Amazon for $15.99 The First Years Infant To Toddler Tub with Sling, Pink

2. Fisher-Price Aquarium Bathtub (not purchased on Amazon) Fisher-Price Aquarium Bathtub

3. Disney Inflatable Bathtub. Purchased on Amazon for $10 Disney Inflatable Bathtub, Princess

4. Prince Lionheart FlexiBath. Purchased on Amazon for $36.94 A Real Cool World FlexiBath Bathtub, Green

1.THE FIRST YEAR'S INFANT TO TODDLER TUB W/ SLING tub was the best when she first came home a preemie at 4lbs. She fit so well in that tub! At first she would sit perfect on the sling, partially submerged in water, as she got a little heavier she would slip down a bit and I would have to put her back up on the sling, but it was not a big deal. It does have a little place to put your shampoo/soap but I didn't use, I never have because when I dry it the tub I leave the tub upside down.
PRO: Baby fit very well in sling. Sling is easily removable & attachable
PRO: Infant side of tub worked well for us, baby did not slip or fall
CON: Tub did not have a hook to hang it from the shower rod for drying
CON: Tub has two deep pockets that are hard to clean (it's a construction of the tub) You'll see what I mean if you purchase. Water inevitably gets trapped and molds.... I easily cleaned with an old bottlebrush.

2.Then we moved and purchased FISHER-PRICE AQUARIUM BATHTUB. I used the sling on this one as well, and for me it worked the same. I also used the tub w/o the sling and she sat well in this tub.
PRO: Tub had hook to hang from shower rod for drying
PRO: Tub fit perfect in sink
CON: Stopper insert on bottom of the tub molded fast!
CON: Tub is a little bulky

Bottom line if I had to choose between THE FIRST YEAR'S & FISHER-PRICE I'd choose the first years, it was less of a hassle to clean, and less bulky. To me the slings worked the same on both.

3. I purchased the DISNEY INFLATABLE BATHTUB thinking it'd be easy to use for traveling and visiting daddy while he was in training, but I was wrong! This tub takes up space! And it is hard to deflate at the end of every weekend when we would leave. It'd literally lay on top of it to deflate it, and then my husband would have to lay on it. So I took it home for every day use and I freaken love it!! I suggest using it when your child is a full time sitter. I used it before and it was an accident waiting to happen! I notice that she doesn't use the "backrest" at all. There was no way to use it when she wasn't a full time sitter because it was upright and not at a recline. Now that she sits up full time, and doesn't sit still it's perfect! She loves to put her toys in the pockets for shampoo, she loves to play with the backrest. When she slips or moves about she'll bump the sides hard and it doesn't hurt her because it's inflatable. She's so rough and it's the perfect tub for her! I definitely recommend!! When I'm done with her bath I just leave it upside down in the tub. It dries great. There are no spaces for mold.
PRO: Inflatable, so when she slips it doesn't hurt!
CON: hard to deflate
CON: Takes up a lot of space, if space is an issue this is not a tub for you (I store mine in the tub)

4. PRINCE LIONHEART FLEXIBATH. I purchased this tub for everyday home use and there is NO WAY with a curious active child! The plastic is hard, and the latch the tub has is always there "begging" for my daughter's attention. The latch is hard and little sharp in some places. She always goes to play with it and there is no way to keep it down and out of sight. Because the tub is so square she always grabs onto the sides and tries to stand up (cue mini heart attack) Instead I use this to travel. It folds up very nice, you can easily put this in the bottom of a suit case, or bottom of a carry on. I usually store it between the toilet and tub. The plug in the bottom of the tub works well and is easy to remove and re-attach.
PRO: Folds easily, and doesn't take up much room
CON: Tubs latch is sharp and does not stay down
CON: in my opinion it's not the best tub for an active & curious child Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Love How It Can Span into Toddlerhood December 26, 2009

By Alicia D

This bath tub is tooo cute! I love how it works from infancy to toddler. So many of the other tubs we saw would not work well past 6 months or so. Also alot of tubs had a part or two that was metal and some said they had rust issues. This one is all plastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars fun time bath time February 19, 2010

By M. Motiwala

My daughter loves this tub. We have been using it since she was born, the sling provides great head support which is essential in the start. Now she is almost three months old and we now don't really need the whole sling. I just use the part near her head, because it still does provide some cushion. As for the feet parts she loves to splash in the water so no sling. The drain, temperature gauge is great too, plus the hanging feature also comes in handy. Its definitely a great buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great tub for preemie October 10, 2012

By Sunny1129

We love this bath tub! Our daughter came home from the NICU weighing less than 5 pounds and she is very comfortable in the sling part of this tub. We are confident that the sling will hold her up while we wash her. It has a helpful indicator for the water temperature being too hot or too cold for baby. The sling is machine washable in case baby poops in the tub. The tub is sturdy and we are totally comfortable with having it on the counter top as we give our baby a bath. We look forward to our baby being able to use the toys that come with the tub once she is older, and we are happy to know that this tub will grow with our baby.
