Pillow with radio
Abstract
A pillow for use in tubs or spas that is capable of supporting the head of a person. The pillow is substantially waterproof and integrally houses an electronic audio device and at least one speaker. The electronic audio device and speaker are removable from the pillow and can be housed in waterproof casings. The pillow includes a first portion and a second portion, the first portion for contacting a surface ledge of a tub, and the second portion for contacting an inner wall of the tub during use. The first portion and the second portion form a substantially L-shaped configuration. The center of mass of the pillow is located within the first portion. The center of mass is such to create a moment sufficient to balance the first portion of the pillow on the surface ledge of the tub during use.
