Notes on a great product

I ordered this bathtub about a month ago and decided to hold off on writing a review. Having now used it successfully and unsuccessfully 5 or 6 times, here are my comments on the product: * Yes, it's REALLY too heavy to move once you've filled it even a little. Don't be like me and foolishly think you can drag it back to the nearest sewer when you're ready to dump it. That's the madness.* Yes, it's REALLY big enough for a grown man. Granted I'm a small adult (5ft 2in) but that just means I don't have to fill it all the way to be fully submerged. A win! * I did my best to find a pipe. or a pipe system that I could use to fill/empty it without flooding the living room. So far the only thing that has worked by the bucketload and I'm in no mood to get wet in front of the TV. *Now I just put it in the tub/shower I have and let the shower head fill it and it works great but MAKE SURE YOU INSTALL ITS DRAIN ON THE SAME SIDE AS YOUR BATH DRAIN. The way of madness also lies. * The water in this tub stays HOT, and I mean for HOURS. It's not so good if you accidentally get the bath too hot, but great for going out and coming back or just accidentally forgetting about it for a while. Not that I would. Easy to use and great for inflation but not so good for deflation. I live alone and have a huge bathroom so it's just kept upright on the floor to dry between uses. However, if you are planning on setting up and taking down, you will need an air mattress pump or similar for the deflation part. Anyway, it's a pretty cool little tub and I'd buy it again anytime (I think technically I already have as my first order was damaged in transit and I still haven't received a refund. BUT IT'S WORTH IT - what a terrible bathtub I have in my apartment for.) For the first time I can step into a bathtub and immerse myself up to my shoulders in comfortably warm water without having to wash the bathtub first or getting frustrated if the bathtub comes after ten minutes gets cold. Definitely recommended as the first step to a longer deep bath! It is addictive.
