Rub-a-dub-dub! From earliest infancy to toddler-hood, the Aquarium Bath Center from Fisher-Price provides three stages that grow with baby. The versatile sling feature means baby can get squeaky clean in comfort while mom and dad are assured by its safety.  | | The sling attached as a hammock provides comfort for infants. | For newborns, the sling is attached to both ends of the tub like a hammock. This creates a platform that comfortably cradles baby’s entire body and keeps them above the tub’s water level. For infants, the sling attaches to only the narrow end of the tub, providing trunk and neck support for those who can’t sit up by themselves yet. There is an included headrest for both the newborn and infant stages that provides additional support and comfort to baby.  | | Toddlers can be bathed in the large end once sitting up on their own. | Finally, in the toddler position, the sling can be moved to the wide end of the tub or removed altogether, giving baby more room and offering back support for sitting upright. Because bathing isn’t just about getting clean (it’s also supposed to be fun!), the Aquarium Bath Center has some other great features. Soft armrests along both sides of the tub keep mom and dad comfortable so they won’t have to rush through bath time. Fisher-Price also includes a rinsing cup, a water-sprinkling toy, and a fish-shaped toy that doubles as a water temperature gauge to keep everyone entertained. Notes to Customers
Newborn stage is meant for babies weighing up to 10 pounds. Some assembly is required. |

| After trying 2 other tubs that were HORRIBLE, we tried this one. Our daughter is 5 1/2 months old, and can sit up fairly well. She's about 18 pounds and very long, so having enough space for her legs was an issue. We found that the other tubs we tried weren't long enough, nor were they very comfortable. She ended up with red marks all over her legs and back from other tubs, but this one was wonderful! There's enough room for her to sit up and splash and play, and there's still room to grow. And it does NOT leak like the Safety 1st 4-in-1 bath station, which we also have. I cannot rate the newborn/infant side of the tub, since she's already outgrown that stage, but the older baby side is definitely the best I've seen so far. |
Love this tub.

| I saw this tub while I was pregnant with my second baby and couldn't decide If I should buy it because I already had a tub from my first baby, but boy am I happy I did. I love this tub. I like that you can use it for various stages of growth. The hammock is my favorite part and the main reason I bought it. She just lays right there comfy as can be and you have both hands free to wash her. My old tub was horrible. The baby would just keep sliding down, so you would have to hold him with one hand and try to wash him with the other. Very difficult to do with a newborn who needs lots of support. I haven't had any problems with red marks or a bar in the middle of her back like the other review suggested. I would definately buy this again. |
Love this tub!

| How anybody could not love this tub is beyond me. My daughter is 6 months old and we just got it. We have been using the Safety 1st 4-in-one Bath Station and hated it. It's sling doesn't actually hold your baby. You still only have one hand to wash your baby while you hold her up with the other. Even though my daughter is able to sit up, I did lay her in the hammock just to compare. The Aquarium Bath Tub's hammock securely holds your baby and frees both of your hands to wash her. When your child is able to sit up, there is plenty of room for her to be comfortable. Oh, and it is VERY EASY to clean! |
Solve the "bump" problem!!!!

| This is a wonderful tub-- if you follow the instructions for the hammock. I've used it for two kids now. I am so tired of people giving things bad reviews when they are using the product wrong. The hammock part is for an infant up to 10 pounds. If your child is crying because of the "bump" and you can't get the hammock to tighten any further, then it is probably because the child is too big and needs to go onto stage two where the baby uses the hammock as a head rest, but sits on the incline of the tub. I actually put a picture of this position in the customer photos of the product. All of these reviews where the babies are bigger and still using a hammock is unsafe. Please read the directions before you use a product. |
Absolutely a great tub!!!

I got this for my son when he was about 4-6 weeks old and he loves to be in it. We had another tub from my daughter but he did not like to be in that one so we tried this one. He loves the little toy that is hooked onto it and he likes the little cups that come with it. He is now 7 months old and still use it!
The only thing about this tub is that when he is sitting in the incline part of this tub because he cant sit unsupported yet, his back seems to rub up against it even if we have the sling halfway on it still hurts his back.
Other than that it keeps him happy when he is in it. I am glad that we got this for him. I highly reccomend this to anyone! |
Love this tub!!

My son started getting real baths when he was 1 week and a half old. First we started in a regular baby tub. He screamed and wiggled around, it was impossible for me to bathe him on my own as it took 2 hands to hold and support him. So we bought the Aquarium Bath Center and Landon would still scream and wiggle but I didn't have to hold him because the hammock held him wonderfully. I could actually just let him lay there with out even holding him (with a very close hand of course) so it made baths time quick and painless. We did not have a problem with the bump, because if you read the intstructions, the baby is only suppoused to use the hammock until 10 lbs and then after that you are suppoused to unhook the bottom ends and have the rest their little bottom ends on the bump. Yes, the hammock gets stinky after a couple baths, But all you have to do is throw it in with the regular laundry and you are set!

Like this tub best.

| When my third child was born, we got this tub. It has been the best yet for us. From infant stage to now 6 months old, my daughter has fit snugly. As an infant, the sling is perfect because you can't immerse the baby while the stump is still attached. We used the tub on the counter by the bathroom sink, which worked very well while she was in the hammock stage. Once her stump fell off, and she was able to control her head well, we lowered the bottom half of the hammock into the tub and let baby's bottom rest in the nook that is created between the hump and the top part of the tub. A perfect angle for baby to rest comfortably while getting a bath. This is the position in which we currently use our tub. Now, however, we bathe her in the Aquarium tub instide the bathtub so we don't have to worry about where the water lands. Finally, once baby is old enough to sit without support, we'll remove the sling altogether and let her sit in the wide end of the tub to play during bath time. No doubt our daughter will enjoy this final transition in the short weeks ahead. |
Very Happy

I wasn't sure if I wanted this bath tub after reading some of the reviews, but I got it as a shower gift.
I am so happy that I did! My son was not a small baby at birth, so we didn't have issues with his size. He lies on the hammock and doesn't float at all. It's nice cause I have my hands free to wash him while he lies in it. He's 3 months old now.
I put in in our bathtub and sit on the side of the tub while I wash him. That way, I can open the drain on the baby's tub when it's time to get out. To keep him warm I keep a washcloth on his chest while I bathe him. He loves his bath!!
When he's bigger, I'll probably just wash him in our kitchen sink, but for now, this bath rocks! |
