When our six-month old was an infant, we bathed him in a typical baby bathtub, but he outgrew that one rather quick (he is a tall/heavy boy) and it was beginning to become uncomfortable for him, so we recently got this tubside bath seat for him. He sits inside a ring that holds him (up to what age, still remains to be seen), has room for his legs to stick out, while it gives us room to clean his head and back, and we can rotate the ring with him inside as needed. So far, he's loving it (I guess, the fact that it allows him to sit in water helps) as he can splash and play with his bath toys, while we can get him clean for his nightsleep. The two challenges we've found are cleaning his belly (since he's compelled to be pushing it against the front of the ring, trying to reach his toys) and getting him into the seat (getting his legs in the proper spots), but this last thing is something that almost ALL seating gear for babies have an "issue" with.
In any case, two words of advice:
1) Measure your bathtub, to make sure the seat fits it. I can see how some other reviewers might have had a hard time with this, since it doesn't seem to fit all sizes.
2) If you get it, when you use it, never leave your baby unattended, no matter how safe or great it feels (which it does!)
Otherwise, highly recommendable. Enjoyable for the baby, comfortable on the parents! :)
