Product Information

There’s something to suit everyone at Wickes, from mixer options to more traditional separate hot and cold taps. Designed to hold a maximum weight of 16 stone and slightly shorter than six feet, this bathtub will be ideal for most people.

There are drain holes in the seat so bath water can pass through as you rinse your little one and suction cups to hold it secure. they would be so confused about bucket baths, and it always confounded me how long it took them to get used to it. Just take the little pourer and dump water over your head a few times until you’re fully wet then scrubba dub dub with soap, not getting any of that soapy run-off water in the big bucket.When you’re looking for a portable bathtub, you need to make sure that it’s big enough for you to comfortably bathe in.

In the case that there is no hot water, you can use the kettle in your room to boil water to put in the bucket and add tap water to get a not boiling temperature. We’ve included recommendations of baths for tiny bathrooms, baths for homes with no bath at all, baths for travel, and even blow-up baths, so we think you’ll find the right option for you and your family here. We chose the Shnuggle Baby Bath as the best baby bath of 2023 as it’s lightweight, easy, comfy, can be used anywhere and popular with Mumsnetters.

Haha yes, I quite like a bucket bath since it takes way less time (when I shower I end up just standing there enjoying being warm).

The place I was staying was not luxurious by any means, but it had a shower…with low water pressure. Nicely, it has a comfy hammock for your baby to lie in made of a mildew-resistant rubber mesh that feels warm to touch. Keep this arm around them while they're in the bath if you aren’t using a tub that supports them with a sling or similar.

The first layer is anti-cold insulation, the second a reinforced cotton, and the third layer is waterproof PVC. i definitely needed this when i was working in bangalore and we constantly had international volunteers rotating in. Below, we run through some of the questions you should ask when choosing a bathtub, covering everything from cost and features to the material from which it’s made.

If a bucket bath feels odd but you want your baby to remain largely upright (perhaps if they have colic) and to feel snug and secure, this is the happy medium. Most bathrooms in Indian homes and hotels do not have a shower head up top but only a tap at the bottom. Even in villages where they don’t have bathrooms and take bath at the well or at the handpump, they prefer this type of arrangement.

There’s no reason why a bath time routine can’t be established from very early on in a child’s life. Alternatively, a bath support or baby bath sink insert, designed for a kitchen or bathroom, will allow you to be completely hands-free and bathe your baby while standing up. And the base of this bathtub isn’t as well padded as some others on the list, so you may want to consider adding some form of cushioning underneath to make it more comfortable.
