Customer Reviews

Easy, secure, and safe5
Found this very easy to assemble (typically didn't read the instructions!!), and does the job. My kids have taken to using this as part of an assault course, and it feels solid enough to withstand the abuse. So far so good!

BabyDan Sleep N Safe Bedrail5
My Son has a "Digger" bed from Next and most makes of Bed Guards do not fit to this bed due to it having raised wooden panels on the sides. The hinges on this Bed Guard do not protrude past the frame meaning it can sit flush against the bed frame, so it is more adaptable than most.

Only criticism is the intructions are poor for the part relating to a strap that it contains which goes under the bed frame. It looks like you need to screw in a metal plate tot he bed frame, as there is a hole in the plate - and I cannot see how it would be of any use if it were not screwed in. But the instructions in no part mentioned you needing a screwdriver etc

However I have not used this part as the Bed Guard is supported enough without this on the bed we have.

Bright Starts: Tubmarine Bath Toy


Product Details

  • Brand: Bright Starts
  • Model: 2002





Editorial Reviews

Manufacturer's Description

Make baby’s bathtime full of fun and discovery with a bath or tub toy from Bright Starts. This funky yellow submarine toy has a wind-up propeller--just give it a wind, place it in the water and watch it go! As the amusingly named 'Tubmarine' moves through bath tub water, the periscope pans back and forth. There are also several animal friends peeping through the portholes. In addition to being fun and stimulating, the Tubmarine is also hard wearing and mildew resistant--so why not take it outside and use it in the paddling pool for some summer fun? Measures approx. 5" long.


Customer Reviews

we all live in a yellow tubmarine3
I like this toy, but I think I like it more than my 10 month old daughter. She dosent mind it, but you don't see it very much of it from under neath a layer of bubbles. I also though it would bigger, its only about 15 cm long. (But I didn't read specs prior to buying)

Tub-Tastic!5
This is fun, small enough to get around the little one in the bath, big enough to capture the imagination and little details are great. Fantastic value for money - we all live in a yellow tub-marine :-0

not impressed2
I thought this toy looked a good size in the picture for the money and the review seemed good but when i saw how small it was i was a little disappointed. Another negative point on this item is how slow it is in the water, and the wind up motion doesnt last long enough

Cool Item5
we bought these from another company at a higher price but still found them worth it!! when our daughter was small we entertained her with them (away from her hands and feet.) she loved them then!! They are also a great toy now that she can find her hands and feet.
We have discovered that she also likes to hold them and wiggle them around!!
To the point, although i agree that the socks may come off easily and also that the rattle is rather quiet, i still believe these to be a worthwhile investment, bright, engaging, entertaining and interesting for the baby who is not quite into everything!!

Not that inspired...2
Perhaps I introduced these too early but my baby just didn't seem interested in them at all. Now he's found his hands and feet so they're pretty much redundant!!! They have merit as 'cute' toys (we've tied them round cot bars, the baby gym etc etc) and they rattle and crinkle but I would'nt get them again. Not really worth the money in my opinion.

Find your hands, find your toes!4
Lamaze have come up with another highly entertaining toy for babies. The two wrists strap each have a bug shaped rattle on. The velcro design of the fixing means that they are very adjustable and will fit baby's wrists for a long while. My baby enjoys them and I don't have to worry about him dropping them the whole time. The socks aren't quite so good. The design is more like a sack, so they don't stay on baby's feet well at all; a velcro strap might help in a future design. Again they each have a bug shaped rattle on and they certainly encourage baby to reach for his toes. So 4 stars - the design for the socks could do with a tweak, but a lovely product all the same.
