My baby loves this thing
By Renee
I bought this after watching my 6 month old stare covetously at the one at the daycare. It is a hit. She loves it. We call it the thwappy chair because she can spend half an hour thwapping things. It has a really good progression in that there are things that she figured out right away, because they respond to the most random wacking...and there are things like the octopus and the turtle which require a more skilled activation sequence. It has also changed my life, because I can stick her in it when we first get home, and it keeps her from howling for tit for the whole 7 minutes that it takes to wash my hands, put the milk in the fridge and pee...not necessarily in that order.

Sturdy base and well made toys = one very happy 4 month old!
By lo
I have NOTHING negative to say about this activity saucer. We looked around at our options for awhile and landed on this one because it was the most sturdy and the toys were not cheaply made little reject toys like some of the other saucers tend to have. When our son was 3 months we first put him in it even though it says its meant for 4 months. He's a tall baby but he still wasn't quite tall enough so I placed a square piece of kitchen shelf liner (the grid kind that's made out of some sort of gripping rubber) with an old anatomy book on top. He could easily stand and it was sturdy thanks to the liner preventing the book from sliding. I sat there with him playing with each of the toys to help him familiarize with it and he enjoyed watching. We did this a few times but now that he's 4 months the real fun has started. He can reach the floor sans textbook now and has figured out how each toy works and how to walk around to make the seat spin in order to access all the toys. Included toys are:- Octopus you push down that makes beads spin in a pod underneath (his favorite so far)- A three key piano that has 3 modes: music, colors (says color names in english, spanish and french) and ocean sound effects. There is also a mirror on the piano and it detaches from the unit for solo play if you'd like it to. -3 AA BATTERIES-- A squiggly bar that has three circle beads baby can slide from one end to the other (this toy is also the closest one to the seat and it's very sturdy so it helped our little guy early on because he could hold onto it while learning how to balance him self steady)- a brightly colored fish made out of flexible material that baby can pull towards him and kind of dances when let go of (hard to explain, but its the simplest toy out of the bunch and on the box it's labeled as "tropical fish teething stalk")- a spinning orca whale (easy to bat at and the black and white colors seem to captivate him while the whale is spinning really fast)- a crab that has ribbons on him and when you twist him around it makes a very interesting noise that always makes our baby laugh- a detachable plush Baby Neptune (sea turtle) that hangs and has a pull handle (when pulled makes different noises or plays a different tune, I believe there are 4 sounds total) -3 AAA BATTERIES-- two toy loops to attach what you want (we have the baby einstein discovery flashcards attached to one loop right now)- small tray between the two toy loops. (Where we keep his pacifier at for him to grab if he wants)- there are three height adjustmentsThe seat rotates 360 degrees and due to the round bottom and rounded edges the whole unit rocks with baby so if he makes a hard sudden movement the spinning and hanging toys don't hit him in the face. Unlike most other saucers on the market, THIS ONE DOES NOT BOUNCE. That may be a con for some but was a big pro for us as we were looking for stability and with a bouncing saucer, stability is not really an option. Overall, very pleased with the product and would recommend to anyone looking for a safe, sturdy and fun activity saucer for their little one.

Very entertaining, but potentially dangerous
By Tina C.
My twins are very entertained by this product and enjoy it immensely. However, I'm giving it three stars because there is some potential danger with the striped fish and the swinging whale. The striped fish can be harmful if your infant likes to move around alot, like bounce. The fish is hard and one day my daughter almost poked her eye with the tail of the fish. She was simply moving back and forth and the fish happened to be turned with the tail facing her in the seat. Had I not caught it, she would have most certainly have damaged her eye. The other thing is the swinging whale. It may sound silly, but if your child doesn't know it's going to swing, which they usually don't, it can hit them in the face. I don't think it can cause serious damage, but I just think it's worth noting. We've taken the fish off and are just watching them closely with the whale. Otherwise, it provides great entertainment. I just think other parents should be aware of the potential risk.
