It was delivered in the evening over this weekend and I tried it out first thing the next morning. I had measured my shower enclosure before ordering and it fits just fine. I was worried since I have a center drain that the tub would block it and prevent the shower from draining after bathing. But I can happily report that was not an issue. There are enough channels formed into the underside of the tub to allow the water to drain at a reasonable rate so the shower pan didn't flood. It's nice to know now that I don't have to sit and watch it drain and I can walk away and get on with my day.It sets up very easily. The only challenge for me was figuring out how to get it into my shower stall and then set it up. I had to stand outside the shower to do it and then step into the tub to get the shower head down to fill it. Filling it was a little bit of a nuisance since the shower head on the flexible hose kept flipping over and spraying up into the air. Eventually I figured out how to set it into the tub so I could walk away and not have to hold it the whole time it filled.I'm a plus size, 5'5" tall woman and I was very comfortable in there. It's really nice and deep so I could soak all the way to my neck. It was nicer than the old tub that we replaced with the shower when we renovated. This can be filled much fuller than a standard American built-in tub. It also feels very sturdy and secure.We have an instant hot water heater, so I was able to fill it with lots of hot water. If you have a standard water heater tank, you may not have enough hot water available. That is something you might want to check. You may need to schedule your other hot water use around other hot-water chores to be sure you can fill the tub. It stayed warm for a long time and was still hot when I decided to get out. I started out using the covers and then eventually took them off. It was nice to have them, but it is also nice that it's enjoyable to use without them too.After it drained, I have it a quick rinse with the shower head, got out of the shower and then tipped the entire thing on one end to drain the last little bit of water out. I then tipped it forward against the shower wall with the top facing down and then left it to dry.I planned to collapse it once it dried and find a place to store it, but all my family members decided to test dive it first. So far the reviews from them are good too.I have really been missing having a tub, and we just can't afford to renovate our other bathroom for the foreseeable future. So this is a GREAT compromise and I look forward to using it frequently.Absolute breeze to set up. Great for ice plunge. Folds up and takes up very little spaceSome parts are missingVery enjoyable and stays as hot as you make it for hours. Feels like a Sauna but unless you have a large bathroom, you have to maneuver it to a place to get the water bailed out because the flimsy hose does not work. you just have to use a pot and a five- gallon bucket to get the water out.Anyone needing a bathtub, this is a great one!!!! So far I love everything about it!!!!This is great for our small apt that only has a shower. My husband needs a tub due to a back injury and this is perfect.The most perfect temporary soaking bath!! I don’t do baths excepts in prep and the one bath in the house is always taken. Did some research and found this stroke of genius. Not only is it the deepest rib I’ve ever been in but it was so easy to set up and drain and it folds up to only 8” wide!! Must have for every bodybuilder who only has a large walk-in shower.This is the first time we've bought a portable tub, and we were a little bit leary. But really, we've been very pleased, the quality is top notch. We aren't worried it's going to leak, setting it up and taking it down is as easy as opening or closing those old collapsible cups some of you might remember from camping days. There are all kinds of thoughtful touches, this is clearly not the first version of this tub. For example the o-ring you need for the drain spigot - is attached by a small band, it won't every fall over or be lost, if you should one day remove the spigot for cleaning say. The foot area on the floor of the tub, has massage rollers built into it. The convenient holes to put your hands up through the lid, are made of a soft material different than the rest of the lid. The photos in the description show someone with their smartphone - not me! you are thinking - but actually, those hand holes are great for holding a book and reading. And the lid for the tub, our first time using such a thing, keeps the water warm for so much longer than we were used to with an open tub. The foldable legs that support the tub, are strong enough that we feel safe climbing into and out of the tub. We were very happy with our purchase.
