I have a tiny shower and this thing is perfect. I can now enjoy a hot bath. I put a few swim noodles under it so it can drain, and cut the zipper top off so I can stick my feet out. More comfy than an "actual" tub.
Great little gadget. Both our tubs were removed and replaced with a shower only option for my senior parents, but when they move out, I didn't want to revert the shower to tub until I remodeled both the bathrooms. So for a temporary fix, I bought this tub, not expecting much. I did the 1 day delivery because it's getting cold as hell even in Southern California (60 degrees F lately which is freezing cold for the area I live in). Hahaha. Don't be jealous all you northeast neighbors!! The item came with an electric pump that works on 110 volt, even though it says 220 volt on the label. I guess it works in duel power, common with electronics sold in Asia.
There are 3 big holes on the tub, you have to fill each hole until you get the thing to inflate. Be warned, don't over inflate it because when you add water to the tub, the damn thing will nearly explode if you put too much air in it. Common sense, but just in case there are some mentally challenged people who buy this and inflate it to the max like a swimming tube.
The drainage is at the front bottom, there is a plastic extension tube that comes with it, which was long enough for my use.
In all, it's worth the $85 I spent. FYI, initially you may want to scrub it with some soap because there is a strong plastic smell when you add hot water.
I bought a condo in a retirement community with a walk-in shower. It's very nice and roomy at 5' long and 2.5' wide, but I really wanted to soak in a tub again. This inflatable tub does the job. I put it inside the shower stall and inflated it, and it fit perfectly. I put the hand held shower spray into the tub and filled it up a little less than half-way. When I got into the tub, the water rose to the right level for soaking.
Inflating the tub is easy with the electric pump, but you might need to hold the tube that connects to the tub to keep it from slipping off. I tried taping it on, so I could keep the the other end inserted in the tub's chambers. Taping didn't work too well, so I need to find another way to fasten the tube to the pump permanently.
There are three air chambers as you can see in the picture and each one is inflated individually. It's best not to inflate them too much because the water adds to the stretching when it is filled. You can zip up the cover to keep the water nice and warm.
The only shortcoming is the location of the tub's drain tube, which is on the bottom near the front of the tub. The drain in my shower is in the middle and the tub covers it, making it difficult for the water to drain out of the shower. After about 1/2 of the water drained out of the tub the shower stall was close to flooding. So I deflated the tub and pulled the drain tube over the shower drain. It's a little tricky but it worked.
I plan to keep the deflated tub in the shower stall and inflate it when I want to take a bath or roll it up when I want to take a shower. It's the perfect solution for converting a shower into a bath without an expensive bathroom remodeling job!
