Fisher-Price Babys Bouncer, Geo Meadow, 2 Pack

This bouncer is everything I was looking for! Inexpensive, light, simple, easy to bounce, and baby loves it! I’ve used the fisher price rock and play sleeper, but baby couldn’t see out and hated it. I’ve used a graco bouncer with a recline feature, but the handle to recline hit the top of baby’s head at only 2 months. My baby is almost 4 months and in the 90% for height and still has room to grow. She loves the toys as well. She has also been able to sleep better during a cold in this bouncer. Her feet don’t hit the vibrater (I don’t use it) as it is well padded. It is easily moved and bounces freely. I’ve added photos to show how much room there is from the top of her head to the top of the seat. She is around 26-27″ tall in this photo.

First off baby wants absolutely nothing to do with the toy bar that’s included with the bouncer. As for the bouncer itself, it has been very handy. It’s a perfect little seat for moving the baby around to different parts of the house while I’m cooking or doing chores so I can keep an eye on him . Unlike a rock n play that’s also portable , the baby is actually able to see his surroundings while he’s in his bouncer so it keeps him pretty content. Also a huge bonus that his boppy noggin nest works well in this for extra head support! Definitely worth the 20 bucks

UPDATING – to add- now that little man is 4 months he is loving the toy bar! Also it’s summer time & this seat is absolutely great to take out in the yard & enjoy some fresh air under our canopy tent. I love the portability of this seat, fits good in the car to take along to the babysitters or family gatherings so that we have somewhere to put little man when he doesnt want held

My 7 week old daughter is colicky and as a result, she can’t sleep on her back – it causes her significant tummy discomfort and she spits up a lot. This bouncy seat is fantastic and solved the problem. She is able to sit/nap in it comfortably because of the angle (she is not flat on her back) and it doesn’t cause her tummy distress. This has been a game-changer in our house. We went from a sad baby to a happy baby.

Update 6/20/18: This bouncer is really well made and has withstood a lot. We had a 2nd daughter in 11/17 who had severe acid reflux (so bad she was put on prescription medication at 3 weeks old) and this bouncer and the Fischer price rock n play were the only things she could tolerate sleeping in for 2 months. So, this bouncer saved me with both of my little girls, who have luckily outgrown their stomach issues, and it even managed to survive the now 2 year old sitting in it. Did I mention the 2 year old weighs 35lbs? I was worried the legs would snap when I realized she was sitting in it, but it came through unscathed. Amazing bouncer and it was the thing that kept me from losing my sanity, helping the kids sleep.

Our 2 month old has little patience for swings, but loves bounce and vibration. He’s too little to really bounce himself yet, and has no interest in the toys at the moment, but the fact that I can bounce this with my foot while I eat, have my coffee, or do whatever and he’s happy for an hour or so is downright priceless. Plus it’s so light and easy to move, I can move him in one arm and the seat in the other. For the price, if you’ve got a kid who likes to bounce, this is amazing. Even if he only uses it for a few months, it’s a great buy.

Four stars because after two weeks of use, the vibration only works sporadically (yes we tried new batteries). But otherwise still worth the money.

As my son got bigger, he grew out of his baby rocker but couldn’t quite sit up yet. This is at a perfect incline so he can see what is going on around him but also take a nap if sleepy. The removable toy bar is perfect when I need him entertained while I do chores. The seat easily detaches and can be thrown in the wash. It was also a lifesaver when he got his first cold and ear infection; laying flat was very uncomfortable for him and this allowed him to get much needed rest during the day. Oh, and it vibrates! He’ll grow out of it quickly, but for the price it is absolutely worth it.

As much as I love my three month old son, I just cannot hold him all day. This bouncer gives my back a needed break, and my little one loves it!

Pros
Subtle design; The fabric on this bouncer is subdued and a welcome change to the loud, tacky baby stuff you normally see
Little one loves the vibration
Sturdy and stable
Restraint is easy to use, adjustable and does an excellent job of keeping baby securely in the bouncer
Surprisingly good battery life; We’ve used the vibration feature daily and have yet to replace batteries
Allows babies who cannot yet sit upright on their own a way to sit up and observe the world around them

Cons
Cannot remove the toys on the overhead bar. It’d be nice if you were able to replace these with toys of your choice.

i have another fischer price bouncer. it’s more of a “deluxe” bouncer and it shows because it was around $50. i got this item for $20 when i was looking for one to keep permanently at our lake house so we don’t have to travel with a bulky bouncer back and forth. this is definitely flimsier than its pricier competitor but it’s perfect for the price. it only has one speed of vibrations, and no music. the sides do not “snuggle” your babe so once they get a little older it appears they could roll out of this easier if not strapped in. but i’m assuming by this time my kiddo won’t have interest in bouncers. for now it’s perfect for the price. especially as a backup one we don’t use as often !
