Circa Air Portable Bath Tubs Adults - Inflatable Bathtub with Bedside Shower Bag & Electric Pump, Full Body Washing in Bed, Bed Bath Supplies, Portable Shower Bed, Blow Up Tub, Hair Shampoo Basin

I ordered this inflatable tub for my husband as he has ALS and is not able to be bathed or showered normally. We found this to be a godsend! It took more time than we anticipated the first time, but we learned a few things that helped the process go more smoothly. What you should know to be prepared : purchase a cheep little water pump to drain the tub. I spread the tub out on top of the hospital bed. lay out the tiny little air pump (it does the job, but is tiny). set up the water pump so it’s ready and you just plug in when needed. Set up the Towels, washcloths and body wash etc. have #5 five gallon buckets full of warm water ready. have person lay on the tub. air it up using the tiny air pump (this takes about 5 minutes) then bathe your person, when bath is finished plug water pump in using a hose to drain ( in our case, drain hose empties into the bath tub. there is a good amount of water that pools in the middle of the tub. We raise the head and the foot of the bed. pump out all you can and use a bath towel to soak up the rest. open air valves and begin to dry your person during deflation. remove the tub from the bed before or after your person is dressed. (depend on being bedridden or not). dry the tub as best you can and hang to dry in a place the doesn’t risk puncture. then wipe out a bucket roll up hose and electrical cord place them in the bucket for storage. plug in the tiny air pump. and charge it before putting it away in the storage bucket. This way it’s all handy for the next bath. We let the other buckets air dry and stack them afterwards. We definitely highly recommend this bathing system. it’s a game changer for those who can’t shower or get in and out of the tub. I do wish the air pump was bigger, but it does the job. I hope our review helps others

This is my third bed bath I’ve bought for my special needs child. The other two brands leaked and had issue with the draining spouts. This brand however is much more durable and the sides are higher and even though drainage is kind of in an odd spot (if you didn’t lift the patient in my be a little difficult to get to with their body in the tub… it’s still all working great for me.

The pump attachments kept popping out as the bathtub was inflating. As it popped out the tub quickly deflated. You have to have the speed of Usain Bolt to plug the air hole as soon as the tub is inflated....took me six tries, said what the heck, and left it half inflated. The drain was on the underside of the tub in the middle of the tub and not any position I placed the hospital bed would drain half of the water. I had to prop the tub from under on the opposite side of the drain with pillows to assist with draining Because of the type and location of the drain, I had to keep siphoning (sucking the air from the drain tube) to get the water to flow out the drain tube x5 to get the water to drain to the empty buckets, no matter how I positioned the electronic bed controls. The pillow a breeze, the shower bag, no problem.Overall I exerted far more energy and effort than I had to give.This tub was definitely not a solution for bathing a nonambulatory person..mfgtr move drain to the head or foot of the tub, hospital bed heads and feett can adjusted to help drain the tub. Fix the need to have lightening speed to put stopper in the air holes. Drain and inflating, convenience, should be your selling point. Back to the drawing board with this product. Good News; easy to fold and put back in the box. Manufacturer give better instructions

Comes with everything pictured. You will need a pole to hold the water bag on. You also must have a shop vac- this is not an option!!!It is hard to get the water to drain and when it does drain about a bucket of water will be left for your loved one to sit in while you scoop with a cup and finish off with a towel!

Wonderful product! Makes bathing my daughter so much better. Love it

It was okay. My son is 6'3" and it was a little short for him. Its not really thick like an EZ Bathe but it will work in a pinch. Shower bag was okay but heavy when full of water and had to have it suspended. All in all it was worth the money.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I like the way the product looked and I'm so happy I made this purchase. Recommend to use with 2 people. Even 3 people if possible because bathing an elderly bed bound person is a delicate situation, however,this product made it possible for my mom to finally take a bath. She isn't very verbal but she did say it felt magnificent. I totally recommend this product. It should be used in nursing and rehab facilities.

Definitely pros and cons. Pros: blows up quickly with a wall-powered pump and the sides are nice and high - keeps water in the tub. It is also nice to give my person a bath when a cloth/wipe bath won't do it anymore, especially for hair washing. Cons - the drain is located in such an inconvenient location. If it was a little closer to the side, that might work, but where it is creates a drainage problem. I have to "punch down" the tub bottom while also pushing down the side of the bed to create a good enough slope to allow drainage. Takes forever and my person gets too cold while all this happens. Other con - my person is 5'10" and 160" and can't roll easily anymore, so the water tends to pool in areas where his body is pressing down on the bottom - legs, bottom, back, shoulders. This is very problematic when the water is dirty. I've tried it twice hoping I could get better at it, but in the end, it is not worth the discomfort and sitting in slowly draining, dirty water. For a person who was smaller and lighter, might be a good option. I recommend putting towels under the tub on the bed so when you roll it up after bathing, the bed stays dry as it is pretty difficult to get it completely dry. I ended up with a lot of wet towels just to dry out the tub minimally to roll it up. One last note on drainage - I tried to move the drain closer to the side of the bed the second use, but it is too far and caused my person to be not completely on the bed. So for safety purposes, I repositioned the bath on the center of the bed which again made drainage very difficult.

Mi abuelita ya falleció hace unas semanas, pero puedo decir con toda seguridad que este es un excelente producto porque hace sencillo el traslado de la persona con movilidad reducida a la tina. También hace de la hora del baño un momento relajante para el que esta siendo cuidado. Recuerde por favor que este producto contiene una bomba de inflado y cinco boquillas distintas.

The quality was very good and customer service was excellent

Me gustó, se ve resistente, y el que tenga el deshague de la bañera en el centro, es de gran ayuda, ya que por el peso del paciente, el agua se acumula en esa área. Me gustaría que estuviera más hacia afuera, para que no quede sobre la cama, pero bueno, así como está es un buen producto.

Gardenhoses from the en suite shower to the bedroom and then bought a fish pond pump put in a pail for the drain hose to go in and ran that hose into the tub connections for thegarden hose were bought at Home Depot. The hose for the fishpond pump is purchased at home hardware and this is working awesome.

No funciona correctamente, no fue diseñada para facilitar el trabajo. Es un gran problema para sacar el agua, los volverá locos. En lo particular no recomiendo que compren este producto
