You get what you pay for
My wife begged me for weeks to find her a bubble bath mat to place in our soaker tub.  I reviewed home spa options like the Homedics Body Bubbles Bath Spa for a several hours before finally deciding, based on all the reviews that I had read, there really weren't any great options.  You can spend a couple hundred dollars for a bubble bath product, and still get product with many poor reviews.  This model was one of the cheaper ones available.  In my mind, if none of the options are great, you might as well get one on the cheap end.  The good news is that my wife is happy that her soaker tub can now have some bubbles.<br /><br />The main shortfall of this product shows itself immediately.  The suction cups do not hold the mat to the floor of the tub, so it simply floats up to the surface.  My wife doesn't seem to mind all that much.  As long as you're laying on the mat, your body holds it down.  But move your legs or shift your weight, and this mat quickly floats away.  Otherwise, the product is OK.  It's not loud in our opinion; a real jacuzzi is louder than this.  It's not too big and bulky.<br /><br />I wouldn't recommend this product without making sure that people know about it's has an inconvenient drawback.  If you can live with that, then the price for this unit is right.  Had I purchased a more expensive unit and found the same problem, I would have been bitterly disappointed.
