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

Awesome tub for a small space!

So this thing is amazing, if you're on the fence about it don't be. I LOVE this thing already and I've only had two baths. It fits amazingly in my shower pan. Let me share my tips experience though:First, if you're putting this in a shower where the drain is in the middle of the pan, you're going to want to put a PVC pipe under the tub right over the drain. One that's big enough for the drain tube to be put into and long enough to extend past the edge of the tub. Otherwise you're going to have a hell of a time draining this thing! Second, the poles are haphazardly cut and are all different lengths. This doesn't seem to be THAT big of an issue but I noticed the tub will lean to one side where the pole is a bit shorter. Also, the rods that go around the circumference don't fit snugly into the joints, so getting them all to hold together is rough. I ended up taping one joint to one rod and got the whole thing assembled pretty easily after that. When you fill it the first time, get in long before you know it's full so you can see how much water you'll need. Half way seems to be a good starting point. Also this tub is GOOD for plus size. I'm 5'9", 270lbs and I fit great. My boyfriend is 6'4", 200lbs and he also had no problem fitting. The only thing I really don't like is it seems to have a tendency to tip to one side once you're in it and it's full, it actually gave me a little bit of a vertigo feeling. But once you get it in the right spot its very sturdy.
