Stokke Flexi Bath Heat Sensitive Tub + Newborn Support - Sandy Beige

We have two of the Flexi Bath XLs with Newborn Supports, and this makes it ideal to bathe my twins at the same time! It's also great to be able to set them up anywhere in the house for convenience. Can't wait to travel with their new baths!

So we are a family that moves a lot and it is really important for us to find products that we can bring with us easily whenever we are travelling. The Flexi Bath is super compact and easy to carry and I love that it folds up whenever its not being used.

This foldable tub is an absolute game changer! I have had baby tubs in the past and my biggest complaint has always been that I have nowhere to go with them. I live in an older home so there's very little bathroom storage (no closets in the bathrooms at all) and the tubs I've had for my other children would just have to sit out between uses. With the Flexi tub I'm able to fold and store it in the cabinet under my sink- including the newborn seat! I also really love that the newborn seat accommodates small babies- my preemie has slid down in other "newborn" tubs but this one has the perfect slope and is the perfect size. I'm able to give my newborn a bath in the Flexi tub outside of our regular tub while bathing my (way too excited and rough to bathe with) toddler inside the regular tub next to me and since there's a color changing temperature plug, I didn't have to buy an additional temp sensing product. Like I said- absolute game changer! Thank you so much to the Stellar Product Panel for sending me this tub- I love it!

I was given a Stokke Flexi-Bath Bundle to try out as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

We have two kids - a 5 month old who still needs a baby bathtub and a 3 year old who just takes his baths in the regular tub. I was really excited to jump at the opportunity to try out a space-saving bath tub that we could put away when our older one was taking his bath. We also regularly go out of town to our family's vacation home and I know this tub will come in handy for that reason alone!

Since our baby is not fully sitting up on her own yet the newborn seat was great and she was very comfortable in it.

The color changing drain was super helpful! For as many baths as I've given my children, I still always worry about water temperature. This takes the guesswork out and is such a neat feature!

With the shape of this tub and ability to store away easily, I will definitely also utilize this as a sensory bin to use outside with my toddler - we've been using storage bins which are great but the depth of this tub is perfect for playing also. I could see us using this as a bin for other outdoor play as well.

Thank you again to Stellar Product Testing Panel for letting us try this product out!

This foldable bathtub from Stokke is a great concept, especially when traveling with babies.
We recently went up to Lake Tahoe for a weekend get away, and the tub folded flat so didn't take up much space and came in handy to wash my 2 month old infant as well as my 2 year old toddler. With the tub being new, the infant insert was a bit tricky to place on since it clicks into place where the tub folds and after placing the insert the bottom of the insert lifts up where the tub folds again. I had to have my husband push the insert in place while I placed the baby on top, and with the weight of the baby the infant insert no longer lifted. For this, I am not sure if this bathtub will be safe for a newborn or a premie. The plug of the bathtub changes color from black to purple when the water is too hot, but I don't really care for this feature since I always rely on my arms/hands for a temperature check. However, I am sure this feature would be handy for a person like my husband, who can visually see if the water is too hot for our babies. Overall for traveling purposes, I was very pleased with this product being light weight and portable. However, I would not recommend this tub for at home daily use for the tub does not open completely and stays in an awkward semi-folded position, and for the infant insert, I prefer a sling or softer material. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this infant bath.

We love the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle that we received through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We have not yet used it when traveling, but are using it as our every day tub for our four month old. I really like how this tub is easily stored, but also big enough to comfortably fit our baby. Our baby seems to actually prefer the seat in this tub over the mesh seat in the previous tub we had. They seems to be more active in this seat and I think it is probably because they feel more secure (it moves less than the mesh did).

My only negative comment is that if we take the tub with us when traveling, the seat does not collapse so it may take up a little extra room. But it would still be less room than a non-collapsing tub!

We do a lot of traveling and many of the homes we stay at only have a shower available. While this is fine as adults it's been a problem on more than one occasion when traveling with our children. We have finally found our solution! The Stokke Flexi bath bundle is the answer to all our problems. My favorite part about this tub that is like no other is it's ability to fold up! Not only is this great for travel but perfect for storing at home as well, simply fold it up and put it in the closet! I use this tub for my 2 year old as well as my 2 month old thanks to the newborn support insert. My son absolutely loved it, the perfect comfy recline and plenty of room for him to kick his little legs! This tub also has a great drain plug that doubles as a temperate gauge with its color changing ability which is really handy to tell if the water is too hot or cold. I can also see us using this in the future as a sensory bin! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this infant bath.

We are thrilled overall with our Flexi Bath! As soon as we received the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle through the Stellar Product Testing Panel, we got rid of our other newborn bathtub that took up way too much space.

Pros:
It folds up so conveniently when not in use. This will be a HUGE convenience when we store it between kiddos!
The newborn support seat makes the tub easier to use and I generally felt safe with my baby in it.
We will be able to throw this in the back of the van and bring it with us to the beach in a few weeks! Both as a bath tub and in the sand.
The color-changing drain was a nice-to-have and unexpected feature! I typically use my wrist or elbow but it was definitely easier to have a sensor built into the tub.

Cons:
I did feel more comfortable using an additional towel under my newborn to keep him more secure and not slipping down.
The tub itself doesn't stay open until water is in it, so it can look a little flimsy.
I wish the newborn support seat could snap down. Right now it just stays in place when the weight of the baby is on it.
Not sure how long we will be able to use it before baby outgrows it completely, as it's not too terribly big (which will be nice when we store it).

The Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle is such a great bath tub! I love the look and feel of the material. The tub is so easy to clean when you are finished with it. The best part is it folds in half for easy storage. No more Bulky baby bath taking up all of the space in your bathroom. As a family of 6 we need all of the space saving items we can have. I also prefer baby items that grow with our baby. This tub will be perfect for at least a year for our baby.
Our baby really enjoys splashing in the newborn insert. She has also enjoyed sitting in the tub and being able to splash around a bit with assistance. The bigger kids enjoy being able to have bath time with her while I feel safer with her in her own smaller space while her siblings are able to play in the larger part of the bathtub. The Flexi bath also allows her to work on her sitting upright alone because the sides are strong enough to hold her up if she wobbles but loose enough she will not get hurt if she wobbles into one of the walls.
I like that I can use the tub on the counter when the baby is small and transition it into the tub with or without siblings as the baby grows. This flexi bath is really a wonderful product.
We have been able to use this flexi tub out at our camper as well because it is so small. I also plan to keep the tub for storage after our last baby grows out of the tub.
Thank you Stellar Product testing panel for allowing us to test this product.

My kids and I are loving the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle. The bath unfolds for easy use and I like that I can fold it right back up again to hide in the cabinet out of the way. My three month old baby is happy in the newborn support seat and it looks comfortable. It is very easy to attach to the bath tub. I love that the color changing drain turns reddish if the water is too warm, so I know to wait to put my little guy into the water. The Flexi Bath is great to use with older kids too. My two year old has used it with water beads and as a toy truck wash outside and had a bunch of fun. I plan to use it bathe him outside when he is too dirty to carry inside. I also think we may try to bring it to the beach as a little cool down pool for the kids. It is lightweight and compact enough to carry almost anywhere! Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this infant bath.

This bath tub would be ideal for anyone with limited storage space or if you only have a walk in shower for bathing your baby. In the folded position, the tub could easily slide into a narrow storage space. The newborn support seat does not collapse and takes up more space for storage though still less than a traditional baby tub. This tub would be a great travel tub if you are traveling by car though it is too bulky in my opinion to take on a flight.
I used the newborn chair with my son who is almost 5 months old and over 14 pounds as he is not sitting up unsupported at this point. He seemed comfortable in the newborn seat though I will say it is a tight fit trying to wash his sides in the tub.
The color changing drain is a great feature to help control the temperature of the water in the tub. I did find it a little tricky to get the newborn seat clipped onto the tub edge and may get easier over time with use.
I don't plan to use this TUN as an everyday bath solution though it will be great for vacations and a variety of other activities such as sensory bin play, beach play, water bin, or even that first popsicle treat!

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this infant bath.

We love the Stokke Flexi Bath for bathing our 3 month old. It's very easy to pop open and attach the newborn support seat. The bath has a fill line which is helpful to keep baby safe. The drain cover also changes color so you can be confident that the temperature is just right for baby. Both of these features give me peace of mind as a first time mom during bathtime with our small infant. Our baby is very comfortable laying on the newborn support seat and loves to kick his feet and splash during bath. We have used the Stokke Flexi Bath in tubs, showers, or even just out on the floor and it is easy to use in all of these different locations. We have a small home and I love how easy it is to store this in our baby's small closet when not in use, it takes up barely any space! We also visit our families in neighboring states frequently and this packs up so easy in our small sedans. This was a great find and we're so happy with the bath and love that it will grow with our baby from first bath through toddlerhood. I received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Overall, I have been pleased with the Flexi Bath bundle. It's great for small spaces, or if you just want to be able to tuck it away and out of sight. The size and shape of the tub when folded makes it very unobtrusive to keep in a closet. We have just been keeping it in our bathtub and taking it out when my husband or I need to use the shower. Compared to our other baby bathtub, which is heavier and more irregular in shape, it's easy to move in and out.

Two features I really like are the color-changing drain plug, and the water level line. The drain turns purple if the water is too hot. I like having that feature integrated into the tub instead of using a separate thermometer. The line around the inside of the tub indicates the maximum water level for 0-10 months.

I also like the newborn support seat because it's smooth plastic which won't irritate my baby's skin. She has eczema, so the less irritation the better. Her other tub has a mesh support, which feels a little rough and irritating.

The only downside I have found is that the newborn seat can be difficult to securely clip onto the edge of the tub. Because the edge folds inward, you need to use one hand to straighten it out and the other hand to clip the seat on.

There is also a clip that you can engage to keep the tub folded. However, you cannot fit the newborn seat in the tub when it's folded. I would like to be able to clip the seat to the edge on the outside so the two pieces stay neatly together. Once she doesn't need the newborn seat, this obviously won't be an issue and we'll just store the seat elsewhere.

We haven't used the tub as a sensory bin or outdoors yet, but I can see doing that when my baby is a little bigger and can sit on her own. We are going on vacation next month, and it's great to not have to worry about jury-rigging some way to bathe her, or to have to bring her other tub. We will just pack the Flexi Bath in the trunk! Maybe we will set it up outside for her to splash around in if it's hot enough.

I received this product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Overall a win! I'd consider this to be more of a space saver tub than one geared towards travel but the infant support and ability to be tucked away were huge wins.
Unlike some collapsible tubs this has definite structure. The shape and stability is hard to see until it's full of water as it does otherwise want to fold up again when empty. The infant seat tends to "grab on" best once the tub has its shapeâ- which again, only happens after filling the base a bit. I didn't think the slope of the infant seat looked comfortable but my baby seemed to love it!!! We were able to have a really enjoyable bath time outside while big sister played. (I was nervous carrying it but it held its shape fine!)
I think this is good for travel in a car as is does fold flat, but I'm not sure I'd go through the hassle of bringing it on a plane. Definitely my pick for grandma's house or a local beach vacation. I wish the clasp folded back to get out of the way when it's not in use but otherwise it's a real space saver.
The tub says ages 0-4 but my 2 year old would do much better in a shower or full-sized tub than trying to get clean in this due to its size.
I'm happy to share this review after receiving the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle from the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

I've been surprised how much I'm enjoying this bathtub.

For my daughter, who is a preschooler now, we bought another bathtub when she was born. It was fine, and we used it for baths until she could sit up well on her own, at which point we didn't use a special infant tub. Given that experience, my thought has been, an infant bathtub is an infant bathtub. But then I received the Stokke tub to test out with my son as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and I have to say, I actually love it!

First off, I really appreciate the collapse feature. We live in a small apartment in a city and an infant tub that doesn't fold up either takes up good real estate on your floor or in your closet, or has to hang from the towel rod and kind of take up space visually. The Stokke tub truly folds away, and can then be tucked into a closet or leaned up against the side of a vanity (the latter is what we've been doing). It's not physically or visually intrusive, and I deeply appreciate that in the face of baby and kid stuff taking over our space.

As for utility, good marks all around. Easy to open, easy to collapse. The little newborn seat is easy to attach. I was initially worried my son might slide down it, but that just doesn't happen based on the material and angling. It's a smart design, which makes sense given that this is a Stokke product (we also love their Tripp Trapp high chair line). This newborn seat itself doesn't fold up the same way that the bath as a whole does, but it's not too big.

I know one of the main marketing points for this product is that you can travel with it. Personally, I don't feel a need to give my infant a bath when I'm traveling--I just bring them into the shower with me. I wouldn't want to do that every day, but when I'm traveling I'll take the ease of that over bringing a tub with me. Others might feel differently. And the travel feature could also offer some opportunities, like making a little ball pit, doing a milk bath photo shoot, etc.

Received this from Stellar Product Testing Panel! Let me start off by saying what a space saver this is. We have another infant bath tub but it is so bulky and it takes up so much room in our apartment bathroom. The flexi bath folds and unfolds very easily making storage so convenient. Our baby is only a month and a half so we are using the infant support seat and for the 3 baths that we have used it for it has worked well. I thought the security of the seat would be an issue but it really hasn't been. There is a heat sensitive plug on the bottom that lets you know if the water is too hot (what an ingenious idea!). Now that it is summer we plan on using it as an outdoor swim/bath unit so he doesn't feel left out when his older cousins are splashing around in the pool. I would definitely recommend for anyone that is looking to save some space and have dual functionality of a product like this.

I was given this Stokke Flexi Bath to try by the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I love the concept of this portable, collapsible bathtub, but was disappointed by the execution of it. It is easy to fold open and closed and slim enough to take along on a trip, but I couldn't recommend it to someone with a newborn. The newborn support seat is basically a slide with a wet and soapy baby. Every time I used it, my daughter slid down to the bottom of it and looked so uncomfortable and unhappy. I ended up just picking her up and holding her to finish the bath cause it didn't feel safe to have her on the newborn support seat. So it made bath time very difficult. However, if you're past the newborn phase and using it for a child that can sit up on their own, it is a functional and space saving tub (as well as a cool way to do water play or a sensory bin). My toddler liked the color changing drain as well as the shape of it, but the drain does not stay in place very well. The best part of this bathtub is the versatility of it. Despite its flaws, I think it will be a great product for our upcoming beach trip due to its multiple uses (sand box, toy bin, travel bath, etc.). So while I wouldn't really wholeheartedly recommend the product, it is functional for a lot of things, just not as a newborn bath tub.

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending us the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle to test. The Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle has been great for our newborn. The newborn support seat allows us to easily bath our baby boy without fear of him slipping down into the water. The support seat easily snaps into the end of the tub to prevent it from sliding off during bath time. The color-changing drain is so nice to ensure the water temperature is not too hot when filling and using the bath. I love space-saving design of the tub, it folds up and clips closed for easy storage in our bathroom, which is my favorite feature. The Flexi bath has given us so much more freedom to bath all three of our children at once with the two older boys in the tub and the baby in the Flexi bath alongside. The Flexi bath is also great for other uses with our older toddlers like sensory bins with water toys in the backyard. Overall, the Flexi bath is a great multi use piece for all our children to use.

First, I'll mention that I received this product as part of a Stellar Product Testing Panel. Regardless, I will say that my favorite thing about it is the space-saving design and portability of this foldable bath tub. We still keep it behind the bathroom door, but now at least the door opens all the way.

Also, the newborn seat is helpful because it aligns with the fill lines of the tub. We have a floating thermometer but if you don't, or when ours dies, it's nice to have the color changing drain to let you know if the water is too hot.

If you're looking for a highly practical infant tub that can be easily tucked away, look no further.

I received this for my fourth baby after using a few different baths for my previous children. I could never found one that I really liked, so I figured we'd try a different one this time around and I'm so glad I picked this one. I think baby baths are somewhat awkward just in nature, as they never seem to fully support a newborn without them slipping around, but I feel like the Stokke bath did the best job of it. I found the newborn insert to be comfortable and easy to use, and she loves taking baths in it.

One of the major perks, in my opinion, is the ability of the bath to fold flat. We don't have great storage in our bathroom, so in the past it's always been something we had to awkwardly step over and maneuver around. This bath folds flat so that we can slide it right next to the tub out of the way, and it also makes it perfect for travel. We stayed somewhere recently with only a shower and no tub, so we brought the bath along to make bathing easier not only for the baby but also for our toddlers. This makes things much easier when we're on the road, and it takes up almost no room in the car so it's an easy thing to bring along. On a recent trip we even used it as a water sensory bin for the toddlers, the bath combined with some measuring cups and utensils provided a lot of entertainment while we were staying somewhere a little less kid-friendly than home. A win, win for us!

We received this item as part of the Stellar Review Panel in exchange for an honest review.

I received the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle from the Stellar Product Testing Panel, and I genuinely wanted to love it, as I'm a big fan of Stokke products on the whole. Unfortunately, I didn't *love* it (at least for the newborn stage). PROS: 1. It is very easy to assemble and fold up to put away. 2. It fills up SO quick, and it's nice not to have to fill up the whole tub. CONS: 1. Because the silicone joints that make it "Flexi" seem to have muscle memory, it doesn't stay completely open - it kind of bends in at the joints. 2. The Newborn Support insert is hard and doesn't provide a ton of support - my baby seemed to fall to the side. 3. It's not very big with the Newborn Support in it, which makes things a bit cramped when trying to get the backside clean. OVERALL: I did not love this product for the newborn stage, when the baby cannot support themselves in a seated position - for this stage, I much prefer a simpler and softer hammock-style support to just put in the bottom of the bathtub. I am, however, excited to use this once my baby is able to sit up but still not ready to support himself in the larger space of a full bathtub - I think it will be PERFECT for that. I also think it will be awesome for water play. For anyone that doesn't have a bathtub, I would choose the Stokke Flexi Bath XL instead and just purchase an additional (softer) insert for bathing a newborn - I think the bigger basin will prove to be more useful over the long run for sure, and with how compact it folds up (see pictures), you're not sacrificing much storage space even at the bigger size.

I was so excited when I received the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We live in a modest home, so the space saving design of this tub was appealing. This bath was ready to use right out of the box and easy to set up. I was worried that it wouldn't stay open, but after working with it for a few minutes, it was flexible and opened easily. The infant chair snapped in place and made it easy to bathe my non-sitting 5 month old. Even with her wiggle worming, she was secure in the seat. The color changing drain added an extra layer of protection with no second guessing the water temperature. Here is the big bonus, the tub folds and slides right next to the counter or under the sink! I only wish there was an easier way to store the newborn insert with the tub. Overall, this tub is well worth the investment, hands down beating all the other baby tubs I've tried.

I received this infant bath from the Stellar Product Testing Panel and felt the product was good but not great. Some of the positive features of Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle are that it is portable, easy to store, grows with your baby, and the coloring changing drain that helps to make sure the water temperature is just right. The negative feature is that the newborn support seat is hard and uncomfortable. My two month old who usually loves baths really struggled with this attachment and was never able to get comfortable during bath time. I can see this being a great seat for infants that can sit up on their own as it can be used as a bath tub, sensory bib, or for outdoor play. Unfortunately, I personally don't feel that it is a great tub for newborns.

I received the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle from Stellar Product testing panel and I've got to say it's way better than the tub I've been using for the last 5 months.

We have a very small bathroom and it collapsed and is completely out of the way tucked alongside the tub and toilet. It was easy to fill and click the newborn insert in and I could tell my baby was more comfortable and was more submerged in the water. It was the first time I've seen her really have fun splashing and kicking around in the water. The color changing plug is a cool detail but I still threw in the temp read out rubber ducky because our hot water in the house is so finicky I like to know the actual read out.

I love this tub because it doesn't waste water and feel like it's going to have a lot of uses in the future. It's starting to get hot here in Seattle so it could be a quick set up pool on our deck! Our little can't sit unsupported yet so we will continue to use the newborn insert.

The Stokke Newborn Bundle bath has been an amazing bath to use for my little one! My babe sets nicely in the seat and seems very comfortable. I love the fact that the bath stopper doubles as a hot water indicator. It is so nice to have the added peace of mind that the water is a safe temperature for baby! The bath easily folds down and pops open - making it a breeze to store away when it is not in use. I love that the design allows it to be stowed in a small space - meaning our bathroom is not taken over by a large baby bath! Another cool feature is that the tub is large yet portable enough to double as outdoor sensory tub for my two year old! I have already thought of so many educational projects we'll be able to use this for in addition to bringing it outside for a spot to cool off on a hot summer day! I am quite certain that this tub will get lots of use for many years to come! Thank you to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for sending me this tub to try out!

I recieved the Flexi Bath Bundle through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I have consistently lived in storage limited homes and have always struggled with baby bath time. Baby tubs are always to big and clunky. This incredibly unique bath really made bath time feasible this time around. It's very easy to unfold without any detachable parts or straps to worry about. The drain is in a great spot and not on a flat bottom so it actually drains. Everything is so smooth and easy to clean without deep creases or material that might hold water for a long time. The newborn chair is great and makes it more relaxed so I can interact with my little one rather than trying to do a balancing act. The chair also pops on and off quite easily but stays secure during use. The dimensions for the tub collapsed are about 21.5" L, 9.5" H, and 4" W in the thickest area. The plug changing colors for too hot of water and the fill line both simplify the whole parenting experience. Overall, this is a very clever design that works wether you are space limited are just hate the idea of a baby tub taking over your bathroom storage.

I was honored to be chosen by the Stellar Product Testing panel to try this bathtub out! I was immediately impressed with the way that it folded and how easy it was to store in our small house. Normally I give my little guy his baths in our kitchen sink, but I'm always nervous it isn't perfectly clean, so it was wonderful to be able to set this tub right in my sink and have the peace of mind that it was sterile! The support seat helped to stabilize him and he really enjoyed the positioning in the water.

I do think this could also be a great product to use as a sensory bin for my older son. He loves playing with water and I can see us using this in the house or outside for him as well!

I received this infant bath or high chair from the Stellar Product Testing Panel. I have a 10 week old and was able to use the newborn insert. I did not find it super supportive for the newborn stage where they have minimal body control. I believe it is better suited for 3+ months for the new born insert. I do like the collapsing feature of the bath which could make it easy to travel with. If you like camping or doing family vacations and unsure where to bath your child, this is a good option. I do think it's better, too, if the baby can sit up using this. We have friends that live full time in an RV and this would be perfect for them to save space! I am a pediatric occupational therapist so Until my baby is a bit bigger, I will be using this as a make-shift sensory bin for my toddler filled with either sand, water beads or bubbles.

I received the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

The Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle truly is one to add to your baby list to have for newborn bathtime! The compact design is so helpful when trying to save space. Being a mom of a toddler and an infant, our bathroom can get messy and cluttered. It was nice to give the baby a bath and then just drain, fold, and put away the Stokke Flexi Bath. The color changing drain was a nice touch to help me to know if the water was too warm for baby. My little one wants it pretty warm so having that feature let me know how hot was too hot.

The newborn insert was easy to put on and the only struggle I had with it was my little one would slump a little too much for my liking. She is a little chunky and shorter so it could be due to that.

We also had some sensory play sessions with my 2 year old and the bath itself. Water is super easy to drain and the bath doesn't weigh much at all so adding things like rice or jello didn't make it to where I couldn't carry the bath and dump it. We will definitely take it on our next beach trip to collect fun finds while we are on the beach.

Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this infant bath. We have a 5 month old daughter who did not love bath time in her reclining baby bath seat. It was always tricky to bathe her and keep her safe at the same time when it was so easy for her to slip out of the chair. I love so much about this tub: 1. It's collapsible and easy to store. I have a shallow, mostly useless, cupboard in our bathroom and this fits in it perfectly! 2. It allows you to bathe in the bath tub without having to use so much water as you would if you just have an infant bath seat in the tub. 3. The newborn support seat allows me to have both of my hands free to bathe her. 4. Baby loves being able to kick her feet and watch the water splash making bath time more enjoyable for both of us. 5. The color-changing drain lets you know if the water is too hot. 6. It is something we can use for a few years as she grows. So many baby items are only good for a year at which point they outgrow them. I'm really looking forward to bath time in this tub once she can sit upright on her own.
The only thing I don't love about the tub is that my little one slides down in the newborn support seat in a way that forces her to a chin to chest position that makes me a bit nervous. I haven't found a way to get her to sit up and stay higher in the seat and the potential risk of positional asphyxiation is definitely on my mind while bathing her.

For context, I used this portable bathtub with my six-month-old. We usually bathe him once or twice per week in the kitchen sink and he's not a fan. Honestly, he always has a worried look on his face and often cries.

Enter the Stokke Flexi Bath Bundle. I was interested in trying this just to make bath time more enjoyable and comfortable.

As a minimalist, I really try to avoid unnecessary baby products, which is why we use the kitchen sink for baths. I could see how this would be a really helpful product, however, if you had a smaller kitchen sink, no bathtub, lived in an RV, had a lake place, etc. While it's far from minimal size-wise, it is definitely smaller than other plastic portable bathtub, which I appreciated.

As for my babe, he absolutely loved it. I had to laugh because he had a permanent smile on his face. Instead of lying flat in the sink, he was propped up on the newborn insert and could see all around. He looked very comfortable and it was very easy to wash him while lying in the insert.

I really loved the drain plug that changed colors. As someone who loves really hot baths/showers myself, it was nice to have that feature.

I will continue to use this until he's sitting up and can take a regular bath with my toddler. I also plan to use it outside this summer instead of our kiddie pool. I just think he prefers to be up a little bit so he can seeâ it's definitely less "scary"!

I received this portable bathtub from Stellar Product Testing Panel.

The Flex Bath is the perfect combo of functionality and convenience. I love how it stores so compactly in my bathroom. It's easy to move around the house and I plan on using it for years to come.

Does not completely drain if it is draining at all. Drain hole is very small that connects to hose, so suds and hair fill it quickly. You have to lift the baby in the air out of the water and spray them to make sure there's no more suds on their skin, because they never are never fully out of the water, because it won't drain entirely, and it may have barely drained at all. Then you have the "fun" of tipping the entire thing including the stand on its side in a shower so you can spray it out and drain it. Or you can pull the tub out of the stand and put it back in every time so you can tip the tub without the stand upside down in the shower to drain it. Not practical at all. Once you have it all together, you won't want to do it again. I was told to use less suds instead of told that they would send me a larger drain attached to the hose, but even if they did, my baby might not be sitting in tons of water but the tub would still not completely drain especially around the edges, so I'd still have to wash out the tub by putting the entire thing with the stand upside down in the shower to clean it. I'm pretty annoyed at all the people's websites I trusted that recommended this product. Stokke must offer a very lucrative affiliate commission for so many to not tell us the truth of how useless this thing really is even after one use. There is a larger drain you can use that is not attached to the hose. I thought maybe I could stand the whole thing up in the shower and let it drain without the hose but the stand extends too far out so the tub won't unfold making it impossible. Even if it did, the water would be splattering all over and it would be harder to reach as you would have to be outside your tub and the baby bath standing in it. No good answer, but if they could at least provide a larger drain hole attached to the hose, at least some of this could be resolved. Give me a break, this was not a cheap item!!

Great ‼️

Love this tub! Works perfectly for our tiny house that doesn't have a tub.

I can't get it to unfold all the way. There are V shaped bends in the short sides, where the infant insert should be placed. Infant insert doesn't stay on due to the V bends and is clearly not safe. The bottom of the bath is also flexed in an upwards bend and I cannot get it to stay flat, which is an additional problem for the infant insert. I've contacted the company about this but they haven't responded. Looking for other baby bath tubs now since this one doesn't work as advertised, and cannot get help from Stokke!

Love this bathtub! Wasted money on a Skiphop before this that my child quickly outgrew and the sling often smelled funky. Should have just gotten this from the beginning! We've easily taken it on a few holiday trips to visit family too.

We'll made and easy to use!

We love the travel bathtub and use it at home and for traveling. It is great for the backyard play time, water activities,and baths of course. It folds up easily and doesn't take up much space at home to store at all. ALSO, it has a plug that indicates if the water is too hot which is super helpful

Amazing bought the second one for my nephew)))#sweepstakes

We just used it for the very first time last night and I really liked the "newborn insert" as our little one sat in there comfortably and safe.

This is baby bath is awesome, exactly what I needed. As first time mom, I love that it comes with the newborn support and the heat-sensitive plug, so I don't have to worry about the baby slipping out of my arms, because he'll be nice and comfortable on the newborn support and the heat-sensitive plug works really good and tells you if the water is too hot. I also need to mention the "foldable" feature, I love that it folds flat and fits anywhere in my bathroom. The bath is very light and good quality material, I love it.

Our newborn baby hated bath time for weeks until we tried this product! We put the bathtub in our kitchen sink and our baby loves to splash around in his new tub. Love how it folds up so easily for storage and how the little plug turns pink if the water is too hot for baby. Highly recommend!

Perfectly sized tub! Nice and deep so water doesn't splash everywhere. My baby loves bath time in this!
