EZ-ACCESS EZ-BATHE Body Washing Basin Inflatable Tub

My Mother is 85 years old and paralyzed on one side. I used to be able to get her in the shower, but she has gotten so weak I no longer can. For the last year I have given her bed baths with a bucket of hot water and a wash rag. I thought about this purchase for a while because of the price, but broke down a bought it. I used it for the first time yesterday, it was awesome. It filled with air quickly, the drain system worked great, and the vacuum dried out the bath perfectly. It was easy to place the bath on the bed with her in it. Just rolled her on one side, and pushed the bath under her, then rolled her back and pulled the bath out. After I vacuumed the water out, did the same in reverse to remove it.The best part was the look on my Mom's face, delighted to have water showering over her and soaking in it for the first time in a very long time. It made her so happy she was like a different woman. It gave her back some dignity that she has seen disappear the weaker and more depended she gets. I would recommend this to anyone who has a loved one they care for. I know the price is pretty steep, but the bath is really worth it's weight in gold.

The EZ bathe took us a while to get the hang of but now that we have, we're really glad that we have it. One of my best friends is disabled and the EZ Bathe is so much less traumatic than trying to get him in the shower. That said, it's still pretty difficult and the parts feel kind of cheap. I feel like this product is fairly overpriced- but we needed it badly enough that it was totally worth it.

We have a son who is 18 with c/p and it has been harder to get him in and out of the bath. This tub is great we set it up on his bed it was more comfortable and for obvious reason easy to transfer next to tub for drying and dressing. I normally don't write reviews I have some tips whatever sink you decide to use for the hand held shower it will spray and leak a little this does not effect the shower spray at all but, makes a mess so I just put a towel over it and problem solved. Also the drain hose I just ran it into the bath tub and it worked like a charm you can also use toilet or what ever works to drain water it drained fast i thought also no water leakage around the end that you put into basin. The shower nozzle worked much better than I suspected for such a small sprayer it has a lot of spray power. I did not turn it off at all even tho it does have this option but really no need since the tub is really big and deep. Another tip is you can put a pillow or something under the tub at head end and that will help with soapy water go to end to drain. So in a nut shell it is a great way to shower someone my son was very happy liked it much better than the tub way more comfortable . Also very easy to inflate and deflate. Much easier on the person who gives the bath to. Another nice thing it is portable so where you go it can go.

We used this to help care for my mother-in-law, after be became unable to stand. She loved the bath, so it was worth every penny. It's essentially a long, narrow, inflatable kiddie pool. It came with a small shop vac, for inflating and deflating. I used it to inflate it, then I used my 20 gallon "contractor" shop vac to remove the water, as the drain plug is badly situated, and leaked when I tried to use it to drain. You could use the little vac for both filling the air and draining the water, but it would take a lot of trips of emptying the vac if you did. Additionally, they expect you to do this near a faucet. We didn't have a faucet anywhere nearby, so I carried a pair of 5 gallon buckets full of water, and filled it with those. If you have a family member who is unable to control their limbs, and you can do the physical labor involved, this is well worth the cost.

I purchased this tub at the recommendation of a rehab facility, for a projected need. Things changed shortly after the tub arrived and I had not opened the box. I called to return it and the person on the phone rudely informed me that they couldn't take it back once it left the store. This is very unclear in their return policy online. I felt ripped off. I would have waited for purchase had I known. The nonreturnable nature of this product needs to be specifically spelled out for this particular product next to the "click here" it's yours button. Amazon is usually more trustworthy than this!

Purchased for my wife, so I can only relay her comments.1. Comfortable after I put a 4 in bed topper from Walmart under it.It also allowed the drain at the foot to have clearance/room for the hose.She actually falls asleep.2. Hose for drain, my my case had to be cut, just to much drain hose.3. Water/shower hose. Had a hard time finding a way to provided show water.My bathroom set up was not standard. Finally found an adapter to use on the shower.Shower head was not standard.(Just moved into the house in March - discovering many short cuts by the builder).4. Supplied vacuum. Works to drain water and blow up the shower bed.5. Visiting physical therapist, was surprised. Discussed the related merits of hygiene andPT.Overall, it works great. But there is a learning curve in use. So take your time and understandthat you will need to use it, to get better at using it.Of note - I built a supporting role out platform that goes above the current tub.This enables me to leave it in place for use and creates storage below (still building it).I'll add a pic when it is finished.
