Hardly ever used it August 28, 2008
S. Howell (Massachusetts)
Cute bouncer. Looked nice in the corner of the playroom. Hardly ever used it, though, because it bored my daughter stiff. To be fair, she liked listening to the various sounds, as long as we didn't make her do it while sitting in the bouncer.
Also, the bar quickly became deformed (it popped off one side and wouldn't stay back on). I ended up detaching the rabbit and bears from the bar and giving them to my daughter to play with and then stored the chair itself in our basement.
We had much more luck with the Fisher Price Soothing Motions Glider. One of my daughter's favorite things to do in her pre-sitting up days was to lie back in that chair and rock back and forth while listening to music. Sometimes we'd even get a nap out of it.
 Nice bouncing and no hammocking but needs improvement March 1, 2008
T. Le (Northern California)
Now that I have it I can see why it needs a redesign. It can be dangerous because it is front heavy with the battery pack so far forward and the metal foot supports are too far back.
Pros: bouncing mechanism is the best I've had out of 4 other bouncers. Plenty of space for the legs, other bouncers were too short in the seat and baby's legs would start hanging off the front or hitting the battery pack so I would have to remove the battery pack on other models. The footprint does not extend wider than the seat which can cause people to catch their toes when walking by other bouncers. This seat back is supportive of baby's spine so there is less hammocking which can cause baby to spit up. I love the 3 position recline.
Cons: Must only be used on the floor with baby supervised, an active baby like mine could flip it forward, but if it's on the floor it can't flip all the way over because the front hits the floor, still dangerously unstable. The harness crotch strap is at least two inches too short so the baby sits too high, almost suspended in it. I am handy with sewing so I added material and resewed the part that goes between the legs to extend longer. The toy bar could stay on better and the canopy I could do without.
In hindsight I think the Summer Infant Deluxe Soft Embrace Comfort Bouncer Gund Puppy may be the better bouncer.
Nice but not all that November 5, 2006
M. Vandever
I purchased this because it sounded really good and I read most of the reviews and they sounded good.It is nice and our son loves the toy bar, but it comes off as soon as he bats it or grabs it. Also in the canopy it has these plastic wires to form it. One of the wires poked through the fabric. It almost poked our son in the eye. So I had to sew it back in there. If I could have i would have opted for another bouncer. I think I still am going to buy a different one anyway.
 dangerous July 12, 2006

I thought this would be great, and yes, our twins loved it, but the harness is so low that they would topple over to the side. The bears are at eye level, so they blocked their view. Not to mention the bear bar keeps popping off the chair. Very annoying. I finally stopped using it when my kids reached about 11 lbs because my boy toppled the whole thing over because it didn't restrain him well enough and it's not very sturdy. He wasn't hurt, just upset, but that was enough for me. I'm getting rid of it. Too bad
