The most modern update in the baby bath world is the super-bath that has the built-in capacity to keep the water warmer for longer. Realistically speaking, this might be a bit of an excessive demand with most parents just wanting a safe and comfortable baby bath. Most of these baths are plastic so keep an eye out for BPA-free ones. Baby baths are tailored to provide extra safety and support that make sure the baby has the correct posture, securing the baby in place so there's no risk of them slipping around or going under the water. They're safe for babies, put parents at ease, and reduce the stress at bath time.

In terms of materials and manufacturing, this tub is made in the USA from 100% polypropylene, which also means it’s recyclable with #5 plastics. It’s also BPA free, lead free, and phthalate free. Anything made from PVC (aka vinyl, recycling #3) likely has phthalates in it. Pretty much every inflatable baby bath tub we’ve seen is made from PVC – these are best avoided! (I also have concerns about whether an inflatable bath offers enough support for baby, but that’s a different conversation).

Comparing the tubs that work great for a sink bath ( puj tub vs Shnuggle), we like that the Shnuggle will keep little one warm while they bathe, while also using less water than a conventional bath (making it eco friendly in terms of water usage). However, it’s also a bulkier to store, and harder to keep dry in between uses, since there’s no drain at the bottom of the basin. They’re made in Denmark, and need to meet strict EU safety standards. In my research, I’ve often found EU standards to be stricter than in the US. We researched and tested the best baby bathtubs to find the number one option for most parents of babies, from newborns to 6-month-olds. We looked for baths that were stable, kept our kid in one spot, fit easily in a sink or tub, and felt safe and comfortable for our baby. In the end, we landed on the Skip Hop Moby 3-Stage Smart Sling Tub

First, the good news. Because of regulations, you’re unlikely to find lead in major brand baby products.If you’re concerned about a plastic baby bathtub, ask the company if the bathtub has a recycling number, and what number it is. If it’s a number of concern (eg 3, 6, and 7) find another bathtub for your baby! Don’t Use an Inflatable Tub, as They Might Contain PVC & Phthalates

Consider lining your bathroom sink or small tub with a clean towel for added protection against slipping. Still, keep one hand on your baby at all times. Now here’s the bad news. Your kids can also get lead exposure from your “normal” adult bathtub. Because the effects of lead exposure can be quite devastating, this is another great reason to use a safe and non-toxic baby bathtub during the first few years of your kids’ lives. This depends on your house and tub. If you have an older tub and are concerned about lead or old faucets that you can’t cover up with a faucet cover, the Stokke XL will last until early school years, and will keep your little one safe and secure! Both the Flexi and the Flexi XL are great choices, the difference being size. The Flexi XL is a big baby bath tub – about 25% larger than the regular sized Stokke Flexi.
