I Bought A FOLDING BATHTUB On TaoBao |Strange TaoBao Finds|

How does a folding bathtub work? WHAT even is a folding bathtub? Why would I even buy one? I answer all these questions and more in today's video.
UPDATE: After a dozen or so uses of the tub, we noticed the seal is starting to give way around the bottom edge, and it was leaking. I have used some duct tape to see if this fixes it! For it's price, we got a lot of use out of it, and are still pleased with the tub, although we probably won't be buying one of the same type again. Buy at your own risk!

Beware of this if you are interested in purchasing one! A heads-up to potential buyers of this tub in China. I use BaoPals. I love their Website, and find the ease of access and using them to be much less stressful than other sites. Also, often their prices are cheaper! This is not a paid advertisement, it is my personal experience.

[@kowalskadaria]

I just logged in to taopals but they seem to operate in China only? How did you manage to get it delivered?

[@2Feet2Worlds]

@@kowalskadaria Hey, thanks for watching the video! I live in China, so Baopals and Taobao are what I use. I'm not sure if they deliver elsewhere, so you will have to look up if they do. Another one to check is Aliexpress. I think I have seen videos of people ordering stuff from them and getting it delivered outside of China.

I was wondering how long this is in measurement,thanks

[@pdreda]

Please- how did you connect the drain ? I have the same and my drain hose is not understandable

[@GEAUXFRUGAL]

What is nice about this is a lot of people are doubling up , wildfires, hurricane, job loss , reasons are myriad. It's very expensive to locate a place with all the bathrooms etc. But you have one of those and you can use it for many uses. Hand washing clothes , collecting water for the garden? Keep sunlight off of it and it should be fine UV rays will cause it to become brittle. I would paint it if I planned to use it outside a lot. I know it sounds gross but when were kids one bath for 3 of us. We took turns the girl got to go first. I was the last . I always had to add hot water.

[@2Feet2Worlds]

All great ideas!

[@adamswinnerton6336]

Hi. Any chance you could post absolute measurements of the length and if any of the rim is expendable, IE could cut off to make it fit in my shower space, which is about 134cm

I'm handicap and looking for a tub that I could put in my shower the could hold my weight when i lift myself out, so you think it could hold you lifting yourself out? (Without using your legs? )

The legs fold inward, so it's very possible it would fold if you tried to lift yourself out, but if the legs were securely fastened so they couldn't fold, then it is possible.

Did you ever do a follow up on drainage? We have a lip on our shower so gravity is against us once there isn’t enough pressure. I had to bale water out until it was light enough to tip into the shower. Next time, I’ll wait until the next day to drain and put it away because it really harshed the mellow relaxed feeling right after my bath.

Went well. All depends on the bathroom though. Just have to make sure the tube is connected securely and doesn't fall off. Some people may be able to drain directly on the floor if it fits in the bathroom.

I've looked online for these, you can find some that will ship// also one on Amazon, but I think they are gauging the market (over USD$200 for a $40 tub) eventually someone with a lower margin mindset should have them on Amazon for $99 but I am not sure when.

[@JAKOB1977]

damn 40 bucks all incl. thats cheap, actually needed to check where in the world and hence ur in China it makes more sense, as most of the cost of these from overseas buying are likely shipping.. But Here from Denmark its more like 150USD from wholesale vendors for the 140cm variant.. got one with a 20% CP that took it down to a tad over 100bucks after cashback and all that jazz. but then again if I should send something like this the other way to China.. just checked it 219USD max 15kg and max 300cm (length + circumference) and if the vendor in China doesn't accept it, and I choose i want it back in such case, I will get a fee on the same as the shipping out. Im a ound 6.2 and it works, though I would have prefered it a tad wider and longer, but yeah obviously a balance.. thx for the vid..you can alos get them in smaller variant like 115cm as I recall.

[@JAKOB1977]

People looking can find it here, with shipping to Europe or the states. Blue variant in both big and smal www.banggood.com/custlink/DmKhPbsoPE and Both blue and pink variant in different sizes. www.banggood.com/custlink/G33dtsnoFW but usually you can find a coupon that gets it down further or wait for it to be stocked in BGs Europe or US departments.. Would be nice if they could make a triple flip version of the long variant like there exist with a new short model..
