I depended on reviews and advice from other mamas for many items on our baby registry for our first baby. This tub is wonderful. It held her perfectly when she was in the sling. The only thing I would suggest is to add the water on the side and don't let it run over the sling. Our baby fussed if the sling was wet. The fabric didn't hold the heat of the water and it got cold fast. It made bathing so easy and as she grew, the sling was put away and she still fits well and loves her bathtime. I have never used other tubs but if we have another baby, I wouldn't even attempt to try something new.
