We have used our bouncer multiple times a day with our little guy. He was a preemie and pretty small, just 5 lbs when he came home. He's 10 months old now and still uses it frequently.

He really likes the bouncing and vibration unit was great for soothing him when he was really little. We have used it to help feed him.

He receives nebulized breathing treatments and this is the easiest way for one person to do it. Strap him in, turn on the vibration, use one hand to bounce him and the other to hold his nebulizer.

He has spit up in his chair many times and it is easy to take apart and put back togther. You can remove the fabric seat for cleaning without taking the frame apart. It attaches with a series of strong clips. The fabric is very durable. I have thrown it in the washer once a week, more often if he spits up...and the fabric looks new. No handwashing, gotta love that! Oh yeah, take off the vibration unit before trying to pull the fabric seat off and wait to put it back on until the fabric is back in place.

The "seat belt" is easy to attach and adjust, we snug it up every time we put him in. Please remember, even though your child is strapped in do not walk away from them while they are using this product. Accidents happen in the blink of an eye and kids learn new escape techniques all the time.

The vibration unit is pretty strong. It is easy to remove and install. Battery changes require a phillips head screwdriver like most baby gear.

My one complaint is that the connecting bar on the bottom back gets loose easily. It is held by a plastic clip on either side, they open up pretty easily. It's a simple solution, strap the clip in place with a piece of tape or use super glue for a fixed solution. To make things easy I use velcro straps.

My son got bored with the toys on the activity arch pretty quickly. We started swapping them out about once a week with other toys and it seemed to do the trick. It's easy to attach and remove. We always have it off when we put him in or take him out of the chair.

My son also entertains himself, he discovered that if he kicks his legs or rocks back and forth he can bounce himself.

We love this product, would buy it again.

Best bouncer I've had by far! The colors are bright, the toys are very entertaining, and the vibration is great for babies! I couldnt ask for a better bouncer!

My daughter has reflux. This bouncer is fabulous for keeping her upright. It calms her when she is cranky and she likes to bat at the toys. I have had to wash it several times due to diaper issues and it came out great! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that it could use music to make it more interesting.

Well my aunt and I had found it on sale. I thought it was cute and useful. Unfortunately, it doesn't really entertain like its suppose to. It good for a first, because my baby girl isn't big. However, I won't recommend it.

My son loves his seat. He has been a fussy baby so far and is almost 3 months old now... but this seat is a life saver! He loves to sit in it whether it is even turned on or not! It was fairly easy to assemble and is a great value for the price! I think it is cute and have had no problems with it what so ever! :)

Purchased as I thought it was comparable to other bouncers. I put together easily but not the best support structure for holding a newborn/infant. The vibration was way Too LOUD!!! I took back before baby was even born. Will look for different one to also include more features then just vibrations.

The vibrating noise that the chair makes was so loud that I was afraid it was hurting my baby's hearing! The seat is obviously one of the cheaper ones out there so I guess you get what you pay for. I wish I had gotten a different bouncy seat.

I registered for this item without it having very many reviews, so I wasn't sure how much my son would like it. It serves the purpose - my baby enjoys sitting in this. When he was 1-2 months, we always had to use towels or blankets around his head so he woudln't tip over since it doesn't recline that far back. The toys are very hard for him to reach and he is 4 months old. Soon, he will be able to play in an excersaucer or something more entertaining so this vibrating chair might not last much longer. One of the legs keeps falling off when we transport the chair, so that is a pain in the butt to keep fixing. Also, when he kicks and pushes off the bottom of the chair out of excitement, he sometimes pushes the "box" that makes the chair vibrate, causing the "box" to fall off the chair.
For my next child, I will look for a bouncer that reclines back a little farther, lights up, and plays music since that would hold his attention 3 times longer than just a few dangling toys.

My baby was sleeping on the bouncer and it broke.

The seat is comfortable for my baby... he loves the vibration and the bounce. However, the vibration is pretty loud which may annoy some but is also a great sound buffer to baby.
