The First Years Sure Comfort Deluxe Newborn to Toddler Tub with Sling Reviews

This bathtub was given to me after the birth of my second child.  We had a different bathtub for my first son and I was very unhappy with it.  This first years tub was fabulous.  I love the sling for the newborn baby.  It cradled the baby and kept him from sinking in the water.  It wrapped around his body to provide support and cushioning.  I washed the sling in the washer and it help up great.  We then transitioned to the incline in the tub.  This allowed me to lay my baby down in the bathtub but still provide support for him.  Lastly, we were able to sit my baby up when he was able to...

After using the Summer Infant Baby Bather for we had to move up in size when our baby got to six months and was too big for the first one.  We were gifted one of these Sure Comfort Deluxe tubs, which can be used for both newborns and toddlers.  Our daughter took to the new tub right away, and with the added freedom and space of this new tub also came the fun she now has with bath time.  It isn't so much a chore anymore as a time to bond between us and the baby, and this is a great tool to have on hand during that process.

This is another very affordable bathtub to have around the house,...

The First Years Sure Comfort Deluxe Newborn to Toddler Tub with Sling is a great baby tub. It's durable and inexpensive. The side that has an "incline" is perfect for babies who cannot sit up on their own, though they can slip to their side as it does not curve at all.

I got this tub as a gift and was very grateful for it. When I looked for a cheap replacement to use at grandma's, I noticed others had a little bump were baby's crotch would sit- I'm assuming to help keep them in place, but it looked uncomfortable to me and I was glad to realize my tub did not have that!

The sling is another story....

I had bought a First Years Sure Comfort Deluxe Newborn to Toddler Tub with Sling for my son when he was an infant, used it until he grew out of it, passed it to a friend, and three years later bought one for my daughter. As a "first bath" tub, it works great in the sink, and the sling dips just enough with the baby in it to get them gently wet. Both of my kids, though, seemed to like it the best when using the incline side. The small bump at the butt helps keep them from sliding, as does the foam bottom.

The only problem I have had with both kids is that they got too long for the tub before...

I really did enjoy this tub, the sling was a life saver for bathing a newborn.  My only complaint is that for the reclinging side of the tub, they did not put a not skid pad on the bottom where babys bottom is to go, so I often found that baby slid down and over the hump of the tub which was annoying.  So again I was doing one handed bathing because I had to make sure that baby didn't slide down. Finally I just had my husband stick one of those not skid bathtub stickers on the bottom and it worked great.

I also didn't like that there were certian spots that were impossible to clean like down in...

Crazy as it may sound, this tiny bath tub lasted our child his entire first year of life.  First, a quick description.  The baby starts off one direction in the sling.  As the baby grows, he can remain in the reclined position, but without the sling.  Once the baby sits up well, you switch to the other end and the baby sits for the bath.  The tub fits nicely in a kitchen sink, which we used, because we always clean that area often anyway, so it made cleanup a snap.  Also, the counters nearby made getting everything organized a snap.  The tub has a drain in the bottom to let water out when...

I used this tub with my two boys and plan on using it with my third boy when he arrives in March!  I have already gotten my money out of this tub seeing how it was inexpensive to begin with.  The sling attaches and detaches easily and is so handy for newborn babies.  It is easy to use.  The plug will indicate if the water is too hot or cold and since it fits on your kitchen sink it is easy to drain the tub.  It is a little slippery on the bottom.  I've noticed that I have to hold onto my baby tightly to keep them from slipping down, but overall it works well.  This tub claims to convert...

We had used this tub with our oldest son and given it away when we were finished.  When our second son was born we bought another one of these tubs without hesitation.  Overall compared to some tubs available, it is very economical and basic, but is highly functional.  We really appreciated the sling feature for infants.  It made for a comfortable way for the babies to lay back before they were able to sit up at all.  Since they were more comfortable, bathtime was more enjoyable for everyone.  Once the kids were able to sit up, the tub was still useful and had room for them to splash and...

I love this tub.  There isnt too much to say about it but it does take up quite a bit of space. Space that I dont have.  I would have liked something more compact or something that folded. This was hard to find a location for it.  The tub itself is steardy and it has lasted a few years with no cracks or damage.  We started out in the sink with it until my darling got to be 5 months. We had to move it into the actual bath tub because I feared she would jump out of it.  Never leave your child alone not even for a second. I just wanted to point that out to those who think they can. These tubs...

I wish my son would like this tub as much as I did when I got it. He is a big baby, and he doesn't really like the sling. I researched several different tubs and decided on this one because it was at a good price and can be used as an infant tub and a toddler tub, but so far the sling isn't winning him over. I don't think he likes "dangling" above the tub, and the little sling gets cold. That being said, this could just be our little guy not liking bath time (although now we just hold him, and he seems to enjoy this). The good things about the tub is that it fits easily into the (real) tub, and...
