Review on πŸ› G Ganen Portable Foldable 3 Layer PVC Spa Bathtub Freestanding Ice Bathtub (29.5 Inch Blue) - Unisex by Kevin Swier

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I love this nonsense.

I hesitated to buy this for several months. I love the bathroom but I only have a shower. But will this shitty thing work? Is it strong enough to hold water? (Yes, I know it sounds silly, but I've been burned before. I try not to take anything for granted.) Will it snag and pierce something in a month? Then I just took the plunge (pardon the pun). I felt so stupid the first time I set it up in my shower stall. Buying regrets on steroids: I just bought a kiddie pool. What a bloody idiot. And then I filled it up and sat down. First thought: I'm in love. I'm 5ft 5" and have a small build (not short). There's a lot of space here: I don't have to cross my legs when sitting, and I could pour water over my head if I wanted to. a bathtub for bathing, not for bathing; You can't straighten your legs to shave them, and it's not easy to tilt your head to get your hair wet. .) I don't understand why (scientists want to answer?), but it keeps the heat of the water for a long time. An HOUR after taking a bath, the water is still *hot*. I have no idea why but I like it in German Even my husband who hates the bathroom sometimes sits in it on hard days at the gym. Epsom salts for the muscles and he'll fall asleep fast! He is strong. The plastic is very thick. The construction is simple: flexible plastic with PVC tube inserts to keep it in place and an inflatable ring to keep the sides upright when filling. near the tub spout, leave the rim deflated when filling and slide the plastic wrap under the tub spout. After it's full, I take out the plastic from under the spout and inflate the rim. The tub spout then touches the outside of the plastic, so I just cover the spout with a towel (to avoid scratching the plastic - this may not be necessary). I think I'll buy a plastic faucet extender (Prince Lionheart faucet extender I found at Revain) to solve this tiny problem. However, I will say that I *don't* love it when it's not in use because it's big and wet and baby blue - no. Definitely easy to hide in my bathroom. But I'll come up with something. Short answer: buy it. If you're looking, it's because you "need" it. It will work and you will love it - after making your own workarounds.
