Description of The First Years Sure Comfort Newborn to Toddler Tub
The Sure Comfort tub is perfect for your growing baby. Because of the deep design, it holds your baby better in both single and double sinks. Made with mildew resistant pads, this tub even includes a special drain plug that changes color if the water gets too hot.Baby Products Reviews of The First Years Sure Comfort Newborn to Toddler Tub
Customer Review: Fine from one month until 4-5 months (but not the best), and not very practical after that
Summary: 3 Stars
The tub was fine with the sling for my son when he was a newborn, but it was hard to keep his whole body wet (and thus warm) while keeping his head out of the water. We were also scared to death when he'd squirm, but I think all new parents must go through that.
We were happy when we removed the sling, so he could sit back and stay in the water. However, his behind would slip off the bump and he would slide lower. I've used a friend's tub (another brand) and its bump is rubber-coated, leading to much less sliding down. In this tub, it's just hard plastic.
By 4-5 months, the water was no longer covering the front of his torso. The baby's back is reclined, so vertical distance isn't huge, and its head is against the seatback while its chest puffs out. As a result, adding more water leads to water going into his ears before it covers the front side of his chest. Actually, it's the front side of his chest, the top of his harms and shoulders that are out of the water. We also noticed he'd squirm and try to sink lower into the tub (possibly to keep his body in the warm water). So we're stuck holding him up with one arm (or readjusting him every few minutes). The chest out of water phenomenon is worse on the straight-back toddler side of the tub, where he sits straight up, because the water only goes up to his belly when the tub is completely full. As a result, his chest stays outside the water and doesn't get a proper soaking bath nor does it enjoy the warmth of the water like his legs.
Bottom line: fine from one month until 4-5 months (but not the best), but not very practical after that.
