Best Tub Ever
This has been the best bath investment we made for our son! He began using this on the countertop in the bathroom at about 7 months. He's 14 months now and it's in the bathtub. The quaker on the duck's bill still wokrs and it has a handy suction cup so we stick it to the back of the tub wall when done. It drains nicely. We've taken several vacations and it deflates with ease. I don't know why the previous poster said it took them a half hour to blow up!? I've inflated this within a couple of minutes with no problem. Their issue may have been that they didn't read the directions regarding the valve. Many inflatable items have a closed valve so when you try and blow up the item, you have to pinch the stem at the same time. This allows a little flap in the valve to open and let air in. The purpose is to keep leaking of air from the valve stem over time to a minimum. My 72 year old mother in law blew this up at the beach with no problems once I showed her the valve trick! We highly recommend this tub as it is durable and fun! We just squeak the duck's bill and our son comes running for his bath!

Perfect solution for shower stalls
We have 6-month-old twins in a typically small NYC apartment. They were quickly outgrowing the kitchen sink but we don't have a bathtub, just a 30"X30" shower stall.
This tub fits the bill perfectly (no pun intended). Most baby tubs are relatively enormous (and sized for a bath tub), but because this is inflatable it folds down into the storage stool with no problem, and because of the suction cup on the bottom it hangs dry on the wall of the shower stall. It's sturdy enough for a big baby, I can't see needing a plastic one for at least another year. The babies love it; they splash and can hang on to the sides or be supported by them. The bottom is just textured and padded enough they don't slip around. Excellent design and perfect size. Our babies actually have bath time now. It might just be the best $15 I've ever spent.
Other notes: I would recommend for babies who can sit up unassisted or very close to it. Having a handheld shower head helps a TON for the shower stall. For you twin parents out there, this isn't really big enough for both of them, so we bathe them one at a time. Travels very well - hello holidays. The beak squawks when you squeeze it, they don't seem to care about that (yet).
Overall it's a no-brainer product. Enjoy!
