I had two of them. Don't ask me where they ended up but I could do with one now.
I use a washing up bowl which I keep in the bathroom for that purpose but it's not the same as having the bubbles and relaxed feel afterwards even though it serves the purpose of keeping my toenails short through soaking.

My son bought one last year as he had a toe nail problem and it helped enormously. I borrow it once a week for a relaxing soak.

Remember these from the 80’s?
I bet many of us had one, then it migrated to the loft or garage and thence to the charity shop or tip!
Over the summer and especially on holiday when I was on my feet from morning till night I suspected my feet were frequently rank and as I now shower instead of having baths (fear of getting stuck!) I wondered if a good soak might be in order.
So here I am, feet in warm tea tree and peppermint infused bubbling warm water and I wonder why I waited so long!
It should make dealing with the toenails and hard skin easier too, (only trouble is now I don’t want it to stop ????)
