Available in Summer! That's Great News for HK Parents.
The Flexibath is one of those ingenious ideas that you wish you had thought of. It's literally a baby bath that folds up, making it suitable for smaller bathrooms and travelling. Whats more the Flexibath has received 2 prestigious design awards in Denmark and has been declared one of This Morning's best baby gadgets. The 'must have' for 2010! With this in mind we were given the chance to give it a test.
Bath-time in our house has been full of up's and down's. Over the last three years, we have had babies clamoring for a bath and babies positively refusing to have a bath. we have holidayed with our large standard baby bath and we have holidayed without. The one thing that we have done though, is save a lot of water by not using the big bath! This is why I recommend all new mums to invest in a baby bath; you will save money!
Having reviewed the Flexibath, I think that if you are going to buy a baby bath, this is probably the one to get. For these reasons;
Its surprisingly compact, you won't have to make a lot of space. It can fold away and be popped under the cot or by the bathroom cabinet.
The rubber lines which mark out the folds and the non-slip base make it a lot safer than a standard baby bath, your baby won't slip and slide about.
The plastic is good quality and will last for some time.
It comes in a range of funky colours!
I like the Flexibath primarily because it folds up and can be shoved out of the way. The way it folds is so simple it can be done in literally two seconds. Fifi enjoyed her bath in it as it is a fairly small safe place. I think the size is one of the main draw backs; despite what the marketing says about it being suitable up until the age of four, it was too small for Toddler boy who at three, is not enormous by any stretch. By the time he fitted in, a lot of the water had been displaced! I was also concerned about how sturdy it was for him.
The only other criticism I have (and its a tiny one), is that the catch which helps you to clip it together hangs over the edge of the bath when it is opened to use it. This is a really tempting little bit of plastic for a child to hang onto, its also a little bit scratchy and can catch your baby if you are not careful.
In summary, the Flexibath is a really great product, at £29.95 its a bit more costly than your average bath, but the space saving implications outweigh the cost. If you are looking for suggestions for your 'baby list' you can't go wrong with this one. - Shared from Being a Mummy
WIP Metro was just another concept stroller that would never see a sales floor. But after four years in development, the stroller will soon be available. It will feature a stunning retro design rendered in thoroughly modern materials.
If you saw a list of just the materials used you would assume that it was a racing bicycle or another piece of sporting equipment. The frame is made of lightweight ERGAL aluminum alloy tubing. While the components that compose the patented folding mechanism are made of IXEF fiberglass reinforced techno-polymer. And there are three magnesium alloy wheels with centralized brakes. I wasn’t joking when I said high-tech. Even the fabrics have a techno edge. The breathable seats are coated with a Nanosphere finish that makes the seat water-repellent and super easy to clean. There is also an optional mattress liner made of memory foam with an antibacterial silver finish. And the best part about the fabrics is that they are OEKO-TEX Standard 100 clean certified. (The only other stroller that I have heard of that is OEKO-TEX certified is the Orbit.) So there are no worries about harmful materials coming into contact with your precious child.
For children 6months-4years Folds to 78cm x 43cm x 20cm or 31in x 17in x 8in Weighs around 9kg or 20lbs Integrated folding sunshade 5 point safety harness Adjustable foot rest Optional accessories: Interchangeable seats, Anti-shock mattress liner, PVC-free rain hood, diaper bag, and a foot muff
