BabyBjörn Bouncer Bliss, Cotton, Black | 2-in-1 Adjustable Baby Bouncer Seat and Toddler Chair, Newborn to Toddler (8-29 lbs), 4 positions, Lightweight & Portable

Given that infant chairs and rockers are available for much much less ( $26 and up) I was very skeptical of buying this at $200. I ultimately decided to try it because others I tried weren't suitable for newborns who cannot hold their necks up yet. My baby's head, neck and spine would slouch in those chairs and she would be uncomfortable. However, BabyBjorn's bouncer bliss is truly an amazing bouncer chair, and, being the only one of its kind, is worth the premium. We got it when my daughter was 6 weeks and it was perfect for her posture even then! No slouching head, or spine. I also prefer the natural bounce of this bouncer, versus battery operated motorized ones. My daughter could gently rock it by her own movements even when she was 6 weeks old. Now she is four months and vigorously rocks it with her own kicks. She loves it! It's light, which makes it very portable. We travel with it all the time for overnight trips.Only con - the frame though sturdy is light. It would bend out of shape if subjected to too much force.Bottomline - this bouncer is perfect for newborns who cannot hold their heads, unlike other chairs where their head and spine slouch, and great if you prefer the natural bounce of a rocker resulting from the infant's own movements. However, if you are shopping for an infant who can hold her neck up (3-4 months or older) and are happy with a batter operated rocker, then less expensive chairs may suffice.

We hesitated buying this initially as we had received a different brand of rocker (via the registry) which was a lot cheaper (wont name it). That rocker design seemed just fine design wise, our lil one just did not like it, something about the way it seated her and the positioning as to what she can see, she outright hated it! We tried for at least 3 weeks every day and it just wasn't working for her. We struggled for those initial days with this other rocker to have her relax to go to sleep as she generally fought sleeping during the day.We were reluctant about BabyBjörn purely based on the price point. But we decided to get it and was one of the best thing we've ever purchased for her...we bought this when she was about a month and half old but she LOVES it! I really dont have anything negative to say neither did our lil one :) Like I said, price point seemed high, but seeing the smile and comfort it brought to our lil one, absolutely no regrets! We use it to feed her and it helps her fall asleep. We DO NOT leave there for long, just enough for her to close her eyes, and we put her in her crib. Before we had this, it was very hard to fall asleep as she would fight her sleep but BabyBjörn has a smooth rocking feel, helps her hit those zzzz's pretty quickly. Anyhow, this was worth the money in our case!

This product was a lifesaver! Worth the money, our baby loved it and a nice break to be able to have your hands free. I do recommend getting the toy bar to keep baby entertained. I like that it can collapse easily and be stored away without taking up much room.

Every parent knows that every baby is different so please take this review with a grain of salt.We love this bouncer, parent and baby alike.I love that its lightweight, easy to clean, grows with baby and has 3 different recliner positions.Baby loves that it has a deep pocket for him to sit comfortably in and bounces smoothly.We move this thing all over the house and use it for baby while I do little tasks that I need my hands free for.It’s worth the price in my opinion and would probably resell well after baby is no longer using it.

Isn’t baby’s favorite, but we love how it stimulates her bowel movement!! Great quality, but a little overpriced.

This product is expensive but definitely worth the price if your baby likes to be bounded. Super durable and easy to clean too, with taking off the cover and putting in the washer. Would recommend it for anyone.

I was extremely skeptical of the price point, but it’s worth every penny. My son loves this thing! Even at his fussiest, I put him in, rock it, and he’s calm and happy. On his own he loves to bounce and he gets with it! So far it’s been super easy to move, fold, I haven’t had to clean it just yet. Highly recommend.

It’s good for 6 months or more... little babies will need an electric one with movement.
