Review on Convenient Portable Bathtub For Family Bathing - Temperature Efficient And Perfect For Hot Or Cold Soaks by Robert Morrison

I have a small shower in my bathroom and missed being able to soak. This was the perfect cheap solution, easy to set up and use. I personally didn't have a problem with set up, but if your drain is located in the middle of your shower the tub will form a seal over your drain and you will not be able to move it out of the way after filling it. I set the tub on a bamboo shower mat and for good measure I got a 4ft stainless steel garden hose and connect it directly to the spigot with an adaptor (1/2" male to 3/4" female) then put the other end of the hose in the drain that way the tub drains directly into my drain with no mess.I personally treat this like a Japanese soaking tub and take a shower before getting into it. I don't like the idea of soap scum and body dirt collecting in it. I've used onsen bath salts and detox soaks and they have not damaged the tub. Like others have noted the water stays hot for a long time. It's also very roomy, I'm plus size, 5'5" 250lbs and it very comfortable the water comes just over my shoulders. Overall I would highly recommend
