This is a great product- especially for those in-between stages. My daughter loves this tub and has the support if she falls backwards when she is sitting. Also great to lay down in... One hint though- fill up the bath tub and then put the 'bath n bumper' in it- otherwise, you get the top of the 'bumper' wet and it gets cold because it's not covered in water... That's what I did the first time I used it and my daughter wasn't too happy ;) If used correctly- I would say the best investment I've made! I went through two other bath tubs before I got to this one. My daughter used to hate baths and now she loves them!
