So handy for bath time

It’s great for bath time and we use it everyday. It’s a good size to get everything on and it’s really handy keeping the bath water in!

Really confused by the 5* reviews

Really confused by the 5* reviews. We have an easy bath to fit on (house 5yo so smallish new build straight edged bath). It falls off all the time and creates a hazard - any water on it just goes onto the bathroom floor. You can’t put anything of weight on it or it just falls - we’ve tried putting it on different sections of the bath - using a lot of force to press it on - wetting edges first yet it still just falls off. 2* as it’s okay when it’s on but nowhere near the revolutionary bath toy other reviews claim.

Since leaving this review Emilia got in touch and sent replacement suction cups - it is now much more sturdy and therefore I have updated rating.

Love it!

My 4.5 year old child absolutely loves it! It sticks well and seems sturdy. Once it's on, it's on! It's easy to clean too. And customer service is great and personal.

My only problem is the expensive shipping, although if you buy other things you can bump up the cost to qualify for free shipping.

So good for the kids keeps an amazing amount more water in the bath!
Actually ended up leaving it on as it helps keep the water in the bathtub when the shower is being used with the glass screen. So happy with it

Useful for kids and adults!!!!

Both my children make such a mess splashing water all over the floor and this is a game changer! My daughter can play with her tea set or the Bluey figures with her brother on the spacious bath buddy , preventing a tsunami on the floor!!! Excellent investment! Also perfect to hold a glass of wine and a candle on !

Game changer!

I messaged this company before purchasing as I was unsure if this would fit my bath shape, I sent them a photo of my bath and they instantly replied confirming it would fit and if it did not fit for any reason then I could easily return it for a refund. Great communication.
It fits my bath perfectly and my 4 year old twins absolutely love it. No more soaking the floor during bath time whilst playing with their toys. This bath buddy is a game changer! Happy mum, happy kids. 🙂

Brilliant company and product

Brilliant company. I received my bath buddy very quickly. It was easy to set up and I appreciated the measurement guide on the website.

My children absolutely love the bath buddy, as do I. Saved me from clearing up lots of times!

Really clever bath shelf

So pleased with this bath shelf. My kids love it. So far It’s been a race track, a tea party table, a potion making shelf and a dolly bench.
I use it for my kindle and my cuppa or glass of wine, depending on how the days been 🤣
It attaches with really strong suction cups. Once it’s secured it’s well attached, but is easy to remove also.
The biggest note is that it keeps my already soggy bathroom floorboards a chance to dry out.
For the price I think this is an amazing product. I could have done with this years ago.

Amazing company - amazing product!

Amazing company. Brilliant little extras like the bath bombs and potion maker was amazing.... but most of all this thing is so well made im gutted I didnt find it first! I did have a cheaper version before but it fell off mid play and soaked the bathroom floor causing our skirting leds to break! Wish id have bought this one from the start it would have saved me so much more than the additional cost. The kids love this and I now put it on so its hanging inside the bath after bath times to dry out the bath mat that also came with this. No more scrubbing the little suckers! I use this myself aswell as a safer way to watch abit of the ipad whilst soaking with my cuppa tea. It really is brilliant. Never knew I needed it and now I dont know what we would do without it!

Dangerous!

Dangerous!!

The suction cups are not adequate enough to hold the shelf to the bath! If a child/toddler leans on it, the shelf falls down and takes the child with it. This has happened to my 20 month old daughter this evening, she simply leaned on the shelf and if popped right off and she FELL out of the bath on top of the shelf. I was in the bath with her but was not able to catch her in time. Stupid design, I shall be looking into this product and contacting trading standards. I won’t be using it again. Beware!!

Further to your response below. YOU advised me to purchase smaller suction cups with no mention that this could cause the product to become unsafe. You need to take responsibility instead of responding with nonsense claiming it is my fault and that I have used the wrong suction cups when this is untrue!!

Reply from Bathbuddy

Hi Jenny,

I'm sincerely very sorry to hear about what happened - I really hope your daughter is ok.

Any concern involving a child's safety is something I take incredibly seriously, and this is the first time anything like this has been reported across thousands of happy customers.

I want to be transparent about the full picture here, as we've been in contact about this since February. When you first reached out, you let us know the Bath Buddy wasn't secure because your bath rim measures 3.8cm - our website guidance requires a minimum of 7cm for a safe fit. We offered a return straight away, which was approved on 21st February but never returned.

Although when used on a compatible bath it is extremely sturdy, our website and safety leaflet states it should not be leaned on, sat on, knelt on, or climbed on. We recommend it for children aged 2 and above, and always advise testing the suction cups before each use to ensure it is safely attached.

We've since issued a full refund and have been in direct contact to resolve this. Customer care and safety will always be our priority, and we would never advise to use the Bath Buddy if the suction cups do not securely attach. We would always encourage anyone unsure about compatibility to check our guide or send us a photo of their bath before purchasing - we're happy to confirm within hours.

Kind regards,
Emilia
Founder, Bath Buddy

This is an amazing product

This is an amazing product. One of the best things I have bought online (I've bought alot) I have had nearly 7 years of puddles on the floor and I've not had to mop up once after bathtime since we got this, it's really easy to take on and off for hair washing too!!
We have a pretty standard bath with handles and it fits perfectly.
Easy to set up. Highly recommend for anyone with children!
Also bought some little bath toys too which are beautiful and good quality 👌

Absolutely love it

Absolutely love it! Bath time used to be a bit of a nightmare as my son liked to throw water everywhere and all down the side of the bath but when I saw these online, I thought it was such a brilliant idea. I was sceptical as I saw it on instagram but I am so glad I purchased. He spends age watering his toys and I dont have to spend ages mopping water from the floor.
I would highly recommend!

Absolutely great product for a 5 year who loves to play and splash in the bath. Wish I’d seen it years ago….it might have saved the water on the floor 🤣

Best purchase for an enthusiastic bath loving toddler

What a great addition to the family bathroom . I bought this for my grandson who loved it immediately filling it with his favourite bath toys and soaking wet flannel. He then started planning how his Mama could use it for her kindle phone and water when she took an occasional bath! It sits well on the side of the bath and fits easily and removed quickly if needed. Definitely a much needed purchase for anyone who has a toddler who enjoys baths or a Mama in need of somewhere to rest her phone and glass of wine for a leisurely bath!!

We love our bath buddy

We love our bath buddy. The kids can make potions, play with figures or play cafe and serve us drinks whilst they have a bath.
It is so easy in install and doesn’t have to be permanent if you don’t want it to be. We leave ours on and just pop it off to clean then put it back on.
We had an issue with delivery which was no fault of the bath buddy company at all hut their customer service is second to none and would always recommend them for that alone to be honest!
