> 3 dayMy 4 week old baby seems to like sitting in this seat. I will update this once he gets a little older and takes greater advantage of the bouncing feature. For now, I will say that I like how lightweight it is and that you can wash the fabric portion of the seat. I also bought the googly eye toy that fastens onto this, but my baby doesnt seem very interested yet, so I took it off. Side note: You have to remove the toy every time the baby goes in and out of the seat, so its a little bit of a pain. All in all though, the seat is a nice purchase. Update: my baby loved this seat up until he was around 5 months old when he grew out of it. He loved bouncing himself and simply reclining. He seemed very comfortable in it and seemed to have fewer issues spitting up after bottles if I put him in this. Also, this seat cover held up well in the wash. I highly recommend this for parents of small babies.

Greater than one weekMy mom got this for us when baby was about 3 weeks old because we needed something light weight that was easy to move around our house for baby to sit in. It quickly became his favorite baby item. He loves the natural bounce feature way more than his swing or vibrating chair. What I Love about it, is that it folds flat and is highly portable. Also, even when baby exceeds the recommended weights for each position in the chair/bouncer (20lbs bouncer/29lbs chair) the instructions indicate that the product is still safe to use, just that the bouncing feature doesn’t work as well, so it’s a really great value if you have a larger baby like we do. The pics are at 1 month, 2 months and 3 months so you can really see how well it fits even at multiple sizes. I wish we had this piece of baby gear from day 1. I highly recommend it. Get it for yourself or as a gift for someone who is expecting. The prices on amazon are the best I’ve seen.

> 3 dayOur baby has a reflux problem (something shes been struggling with since 3 weeks of age). Laying her down after feeds or at any point causes her to spit up all that she has drunk. I was looking for some tips online and read on mommy blogs that this bouncer really helps with GERD babies. We were a bit hesitant to order it because it was so expensive, but then I saw it on Amazon for a better price and also they were offering $20 off for every $100 you spend on Baby Bjorn items. We took the plunge and ordered it, and could not be happier! There is no assembly required, you pull a lever on the back and lift up the top part and rises up. Its super easy to change the settings (Sleep, Rest and Play, as well as Flat). It folds nice and flat which makes it very convenient to be carried around. We always take this with us when we are visiting friends, its so light and easy to carry. The wooden toy is pretty cool too- a little on the expensive side but gives baby something to occupy themselves with whilst you do your work. The bouncer looks very nice wherever it goes because it isnt bulky or brightly colored like most baby items, which is a big plus for us! We always get compliments on how it looks!

> 3 dayThis is my wife’s and my favorite baby item we’ve gotten. It packs down small for travel (however, it’s too long to fit in a large suitcase for air travel) and is easy to clean (just slide the fabric off the frame and wash!). It’s really easy to rock with your foot, which is helpful during dinner time or just watching TV, and rocking him in this almost always calms him. It’s easy to carry and maneuver around the house, and it even has three different angle settings. Our boy loves it, and at this point has even figured out how to rock himself. Sometimes he gets squirmy and only settles once we put him in this rocker. If there’s only one thing we could recommend to a new parent, it would be Moms on Call. But if we could recommend two things, this would be the second :)

> 3 dayI am on baby number three and wish I had this bouncer for all of them! My 5 week old has been having significant issues with silent reflux (all of my babies have had this) and is so uncomfortable most of the time that she needs to be held or in the Boba wrap. She rests comfortably in this and is even falling asleep for her naps in it. It gives her enough elevation that it seems to improve the reflux enough that she can rest. This item is very nicely made and came fully assembled. I waited about a week to purchase this because of the cost, but it really is worth it. Highly recommend!

Greater than one weekThe little one loves this bouncer. I find it very easy to move around the house and we get a lot of use from it.

> 3 dayIs this pricey? Yes. It is worth it? Yes. We used to have a rock and play for my first child, then they were recalled. So we have this a go. It’s a nice comfy chair, but it’s hidden attribute is that if your little one is backed up, some gentle bouncing and gravity works magic on constipation, thus why we dub it the magical poop chair. Cons: Wish it was a buckle instead of a thing you slide through, it can be difficult at times and very difficult one handed. Also one more setting to be more upright.

> 3 dayWhen I saw my best friend use one of these with her daughter I thought eh, it can’t be that great and didn’t put it on my registry. BIG MISTAKE. Oh my god this has SAVED my life. I am a single mom of twins so I never have enough hands! They’re so light weight and easy to maneuver (I drag it around with my foot). This is often the ONLY way I can get through the witching hour with my sanity. I tell everyone I know to buy one of these. Make sure you don’t put the covers in the dryer after you wash them! I made that mistake and they’re a bit snug now but they still work great!!
