LOVE IT
I normally don't rate items too high but I really love this bouncer for my newborn. It doesn't rock her too hard and only moves when she moves. Also, there are 3 settings so I can raise her up if she wants to play or lower the seat so she can take a nap in it. I am not a fan of the electric bouncer because it rocks her constantly but this only moves when she moves! It doesn't take a lot of space and it's light to carry so you can move it from one room to another while you're holding your baby in one hand. I would recommend to all my friends.

Good looking babysitter !
This bouncer truly is the best babysitter. My four month old son loves rocking himself in it. We started using it when he was 6 weeks old. The excellent back support
( designed by pediatricians ) was comfortable for him when his digestive system was sensitive.
This chair is not only my sons personal entertainer while
I cook, take a shower, .... but it also adds to our modern looking furniture.
We take our bouncer everywhere; it folds up really easy. I highly recommend it !

An almost a real babysitter
This baby seat is awesome. The chair is very comfortable, light and the bounce is just right to keep the little one amused. The fabric cover is washable which is a huge plus. It's super useful when trying to prepare a meal or take a shower.

Worth every penny
When looking for a bouncer I wanted something that didn't scream, "baby" and could blend into my decor. I also wanted something that would last and store easily for the next baby. This matched all of these criteria and more! If I could only have one baby item, this would be it. Without this, I would never be able to take a shower!

This was the only bouncer my son would stay in. He loved it and would often fall asleep in it.

I wish they made this for adults.
This seat is so wonderful and when you are not using it it folds flat for easy storage. It is also easy to clean - just slip off the cover and wash and dry.

lightweight and portable
this has been a lifesaver for our fussy baby who cannot be alone for more than 15 seconds. at nearly 8 months, my son still sits in this while i take a shower or cook. it's easy to store in a small space or travel with. it's a bit expensive, but it has been well-used.

a must have!
this bouncy seat is a big hit with my 6 1/2 month old. He is so content when sitting in it and sometimes takes his nap there too! It's fabulous for when I am in the kitchen making dinner or in the shower. I put in on the floor and he has a ball bouncing himself.

fold it up and take it with you
this folds up flat, only a couple of inches deep and stores out of sight. we throw it in the trunk of the car when going out to visit friends and our 4-month-old is as cozy as she is at home... and it's also nice for her because it is familiar.

also, i bring it into the bathroom if she is awake when i need to shower.

Heaven
This bouncer is the only thing that calmed my baby down when she was fussy. She loves it! we even managed to pack it in a suitcase when we were traveling. It is so portable that it can be moved from room to room easily. Honestly worth every penny and is a lifesaver if your tired baby (like mine) is teething and doesnt want to nap.

Simple, easy, chic
This bouncy seat is simple to use and my daughter has been enjoying it for the first 3 months of life, so far. It is the best option for every time I need a few hands-free moments, yet she can still see me and feel included. It is easy to bounce with your foot, while doing other things at the same time. I even do it while doing yoga! It could be cuter looking and it would be helpful for it to be able to be put in the dryer (it is machine washable). All in all, a very functional, useful and durable product.

Great foldable bouncy seat
I love the simplicity of this bouncy seat. It doesn't have any of the vibrations, music, etc. that so many bouncy seats have, but that's exactly why I love it. It doesn't overstimulate my baby. When he gets a little fussy in it, his own movements naturally bounce the chair, thereby calming him down on his own.

I also love how compactly it folds for easy storage.

Babybjorn is awesome!
I love this bouncer and so does my baby! For some it might be a little pricy at first but to me it was well worth it. Its light, not bulky at all, and folds up perfectly to take with me places. I think they should definitely make a travel bag for it though because right now I just pack it back up into the bag it came in so that it does not get dirty or wet. My baby loves it and he has begun to bounce himself in it. I put him in it after he eats so that was he's at a nice angle which lets him digest his food properly without spitting up. This is not for the lazy parent, its not battery operated and until they can begin to bounce themselves in it you have to do it for them but its so light weight that one finger will bounce the baby enough and keep them happy and then your interacting with them rather then just throwing the baby in and walking away. Im against too many toys that are battery operated, the only thing I have is a swing and thats enough for me! All-in-all its a great buy and these products hold their value if you ever want to sell them! A+++

My new best friend
My husband just bought this because it was recommended for children with reflux. Our son has reflux issues and this is helpful for keeping him upright for naps and before feedings. I would recommend buying the toy bar as well. Our son loves batting at the toys whiles sitting in the chair.

Ideal for freeing up hands
I place my son in this bouncer very often after feeding because it helps him remain vertical to avoid spitting up and frees up my hands. By about 6 weeks, he wiggled enough to even rock the seat a little himself; it entertains him for about 30 minutes. Also, it is lightweight so I can move it around the house to where I am so that he is not left alone. He stays in the seat longer if he can see me, and even falls asleep in it sometimes. Overall, very helpful product.

Fantastic!
We have one upstairs and one down stairs - just fantastic. We were not into the chairs with music, with items hanging off them, which moved and/or vibrated. We just wanted something simple which would be safe and allow us to cook, clean a bit or take a quick shower. Our child loved it instantly with and/or without the attachments. Even at nearly a year, our child still sits in it happily for a period of time, allowing us to get a task completed for the benefit of all.

Best bouncy seat ever!
This product is great. My son loves to sit in it and play with the toy bar (sold separately). Looks nice and folds up flat.

Wonderful!
We recieved this as a gift and are thrilled. I like the simple design and that our baby chooses when to bounce! Not like the newer bouncey seats where you turn on a button and they vibrate. It is easily portable, simple to put together, simple to clean and she simply loves it!
