Rub-a-dub-dub, three cars in the tub! Forget rubber duckies and bubbles—bath time gets really fun when there are vehicles to be washed.

It's Okay, But Nothing Great...
After much searching for a bath toy that would amuse my 16 month old son, I found this. It looked like there was enough here to amuse him during a 10 minute bath, and different cars running up and down on a track should be fun, right? Wrong.
The cars don't move freely on the track, and the purple 'washer' things at one end stop them, and it's difficult to pull the car through. The other side of the track has these sponge-like grips that stop the cars from going anywhere on that side (not sure what they're supposed to represent). The orange sprayer at the bottom is very awkward since you need to submerge part of the track to fill it, something most small children won't even bother with.
Overall, I don't recommend this, nor do I discourage anyone from buying it. It is what it is...a cheesy little bath toy that's kinda big and bulky, but doesn't do anything spectacular. Your child may love it, but they're most likely gonna play with the three little cars and forget about the track. Well, time to start my search for a fun bath toy all over again!
We love it!
I read reviews on this product and some were negative, but I bought it anyway. One comment was that is was hard to squeeze the car wash sprayer, well they must have fixed that problem cause ours is pretty easy to squeeze. I definetly recommend this product! We enjoy it! My 10 month old and 2 year old love it!
Occupies my son who normally hates baths!!
This is a great toy for the bath. I first gave it to my 3 year old son to play with while I was cutting his hair in the bathroom. It was the first time he didn't give me a problem while cutting his hair. Yeah!! Even my 7 year old daughter likes to play with it with her brother. It floats around the tub and the three cars do different things. One pours water, one is squeezable and the other pours water through the holes. The little car wash part is their favorite... it squirts water onto the cars. Definitely a great bath toy!
Not sustained fun, mildew grows in the pump
We have had this toy for a long time. It was fun for maybe two months. Then, even though she loves cars, she lost interest.
1) The cars do not slide down the ramp
2) the squeeze car wash is difficult to pump (must wait for it to refill, hard to squeeze)
3) the net is just a wee bit too shallow to hold everything easily
4) the hook is a joke - it does not hook to anything I own, so it sits on the edge and falls over all the time
5) If you cannot get all the water out of the pump, over time expect to have a mildew problem inside (gross!) - there are lots of ways around this for smaller squeeze bath toys but none I know of are practical for this large toy.
I would pass at any price and get something like Crayola 3ct. TaDoodles Washable Tub Crayons (Dog, Pig, Elephant) instead (I am suggesting bath crayons - Ammie is edited them out).
fun!
This was a gift for my nephew and he loves playing with it in the bathtub!
