      Comments about The First Years 3-in-1 Sit and Store Tub-Side Seat:

      I love this for bathing my daughter in the big bathtub!! My back was so sore from sitting and reaching over...not to mention kneeling on the tile. No more!! Love that it also is height adjustable making comfortable for my husband as well!! So worth it!! We will also use it when she's ready to potty train! :)

          I love that it is both a seat and a storage for bath toys. All of her toys fit in it. I use it daily when I give my 8 month old a bath. I'm only 5'1" so I'm able to sit on it comfortably but I don't know how comfortable it would be for a taller person.

            I looked at many types of stools for my 2-yr-old son, who is being potty trained. This one is by far the best. Not only does my son use it to reach the sink, but I use it to sit on and read books while he is on the potty. It's also great that the height is adjustable. I haven't stored anything in it, but there is plenty of room inside if I ever need to.

              I have used this product for the last three years and I love it! My girls are now four and six and I use the bench on a weekly basis. It holds all their bath toys and is easy to store in my closet. It definitely helps my back as I'm bathing the girls. Now my girls also use it when they are brushing their teeth. After using the bench for three years it still looks new, which says a lot in my crazy house! I would definitely recommend it!

                      I love the idea of this product, and would purchase it except for the blue color, which may look great in a primary-color bathroom but is an eyesore in most others. I don't want to have to stow it in between baths.

                      How about white? Pale yellow? Pale blue? Aqua?

                      I intended to store some bath time things like hand towels in this bench but it is VERY awkward to open and to close and the center contents almost always fly out. I also think the seat is a bit too slick and of course that is not very helpful bc when my son is slightly bigger i will have to purchase an entirely different step stool so he can brush his teeth etc. Save your money for something better.

                          I bought this 6 months ago and use it every time I bath my daughter who is now 14 months old. I don't like to kneel while bathing her as I had knee surgery a few years back and kneeling can aggravate my knee. The bottom part is a nice size to store bath toys and it has air vents to help with drying.

                          This has two adjustment levels which is great for multiple reasons. I like the higher adjustment when bathing, but storing I need the lower adjustments. This will also grow with kids for a step stool as they get older. It can start off at the higher adjustment when they are shorter, then lower to the lower adjustment as they grow.

                                  I'm a grandmother who is not as limber as I once was. This stool is perfect for saddling up next to the tub while bathing my grandchildren. It has two positions which are accomplished by removing the top and spinning it 180 degrees. I use the higher position as I am tall. It has the capacity for storage, but I don't use that feature. It is very sturdy and has an ample seat.
