Alright than... I have 2 of the Safety First Spinning Tubseats and they work great. They are an older version of the Dream seat.. so I would go with it. With my little boy I've not had an issue with his private being bothered, but I would just wrap a washcloth around the center piece it is a real issue. (More for the people jumping down this poor mother's throat!) As for the safety issue... it shouldn't be an issue as long as you are right there. Most of the issue I read with the seats were parents leaving their children unattended in the tub in a seat. I use my simple so I can bathe my twins together. They love it. They get a bubble bath and play. I also use it to help my son sit upright. SO I've had no issues with the seats and think they are great. Hope this helps. Take care.
