I have been struggling to bath Sebastian recently because he no longer wants to lay down in the bath but he is not sitting confidently enough to be comfortable in Eliza’s old bath seat. In fact he used to slide down in the seat and the back of the seat would dig into his neck as well as squishing his little boy bits plus it was a nightmare trying to get him in and out of it.
Sliding down
I was sent the new Dream Baby® Premium Bath Seat which promises to make it much easier to bath your baby – we couldn’t wait to put it through its paces.

The seat contains 4 strong suction cups to secure the seat to the bath. If your bath has a non-slip resistant service you will also need to use the four discs supplied for proper suction. You need to push the seat down for about a minute to ensure it is secure, but once in position it doesn’t move.

One of the first things I was drawn to was that the front support bar can be easily opened which simplifies the positioning of your baby whilst getting in & out of the bath seat.

The front locking mechanism makes it secure for Sebastian whilst he is in the bath and the clips are easy to undo with one hand when it is time to get him out.

The seat is suitable from around 6 months (when baby can sit up unassisted) to when baby is able to stand and the back support comes up much higher than that on a tradition baby bath seat.

The Dream Baby® Premium Deluxe Bath Seat is lightweight and durable and in addition it can be easily folded for convenient storage, although it doesn’t fold as flat as I had hoped.

This all looks fantastic so far, but how did Sebastian get on with it?

It is safe to say that it is a resounding success. The higher back gives him the support he needs and the non-slip seat prevents him from slipping down. He loves being able to splash and giggle when talking to me or his big brother Kian plus the wide T-Bar comfortably supports his bath toys. When it is time to get him out the bath it is easy to undo the side clips one at a time which enables my other hand to ensure that he doesn’t lunge forward as I open it.
The bath seat is easily removable once finished too – simply pull the tags on the suckers to real ease the seat. The only minor disappointment is the fact that it is described as folding flat for easy storage, but in reality it doesn’t make much difference in size.

We had one very similar to your top one and it was a nightmare. I think I used it once with my daughter and it was just terrible, slipping all over the place! This one looks so much better – if I have another I will have to remember!
A very practical bath seat for your little man! Wish that they had that style when my boy was a bubba (15 years ago now sobs), the regular sort are quite the struggle!
Oh I could REALLY have done with this when Aaron was a baby. Being a 1st time Mum I really struggled at bath time. I kid you not, I would only do it if my Mum of husband helped, until he was a few months old. I looked for the right product back in 2010 and would have loved this. In the end it took me so long to find anything that I just went for a non-slip bath mat, which he still uses now, as he was so old by then LOL

That does look a lot better than the one I tried when my 2nd boy was a baby. I like the fact you can open the front to get them out of the seat. We had one which was in once piece molded all around and he got stuck in it!! Haven’t used any other seats since as it put me off so much! I used it twice and literally chucked it in the bin as I felt it was really dangerous I didn’t even want to give it to anyone else. But this one really does look much better

That looks like a great product for bath time fun with little ones.
This one seems much more sturdy than the one I used to use. I think it would give you more confidence when you are bathing an infant.
Looks safe and Sebastian seems to have had loads of fun. A winning product!
Oh he looks so chuffed to be able to sit up and see what’s going on! Glad you found something that works for you both 🙂

Bath seats are the best and I love the drop down front on this one
What a brilliant invention – Sebastian certainly looks as though he is loving it!

Love that it opens up as that was one of my bugbears with bath seats when mine were babies – the getting them out!
I just used a baby bath until my children could sit up and support themselves. This looks really useful though.
I loved the video – Sebastian certainly loves his new seat! Great for mums too – I love the design.

That is the cutest thing ever. Your little one seems to be enjoying bath time. We used a reclining one with J.
What a great idea I love how safe it would make baby 🙂 x
What a great little seat, what a cutie.
I’m so glad Sebaastian handled th enew bath seat well and both of you are content with it.
Oh he is gorgeous! We never had a bath seat but it would have been mega handy.
I wish I owned this type – getting baby out looks so very easy!
