great product for babies, more freedom of movement for them than a bouncer.

safe when used properly (better on carpet).
colourful catches babys eye.
comfortable.
adjusts as they grow.
easy to set up.
doesnt just wipe clean, you have to remove the covers and wash then put back on.
the bar with the toys on doesnt seem high enough and sometimes my son ends up being poked in the eye by them. (although you can remove it)
my son is 4 months he has been using since he was 7 weeks old (xmas present from his grandad) didnt like it at first as was used to being sat in a vibrating bouncer. tried a few times and was a bit hit and miss, slept in it sometimes. at 13 weeks started to pull himself up to sit up so got it back out and he loves it now, the bouncer is not good for when they sit up so this is much better, more freedom of movement and because they sit in the middle they can topple in an y direction and have a nice soft landing, the material is nice and soft to touch great for babies. when my son isnt sat in it, it does make a good tidy place to put his little teddies and small toys in. the toys on the bar can be removed and my son likes to take one out in the pram when we go out.

soft safe cosy play nest

i like how it can be used together or seperatly. encourages baby to sit up , its safe for if they fall over as its inflateable so they wont bang there little heads.
just the cover gets dirty easily and needs to be taken off to wash
this product really helps babys development , and gives them somewhere safe to play. you can use the mat on its own or as a cosy nest for them to snuggle in. it really encouraged my son to sit up , he also loves to play with it.

VERSATILE, COSY AND CUTE

A multi-purpose product which can be used either as a donut-shaped ring for younger babies to lie in, or it can be rearranged to offer a comfortable back support for older babies.
I would suggest that this is propped up against a wall as it looks a bit unstable in the middle of the room, with a kicking baby against it.
A great buy - my daughter has used this from 3 months of age (she's now 6 months). Perfect for those times when you just need to prop them up somewhere for a few minutes!

Excellent safe place to play for a baby under 6 months

Lovely and supportive for a young baby who cannot sit up or roll. The material baby sits on is soft and snug. It comes with few toys and a mirror,all of which my 9 month old daughter still play with. I found it great when I needed to leave baby alone for a few minutes.
Once my daughter was able to sit up and roll over she no longer liked being held in by the ring. I tried using it as a supportive seat as shown on the packaging from 5 months, but it would slip on my laminate flooring making it unstable and my daughter would fall backwards banging her head on the floor. Even on a rug it does the same. Now at 8 months she can pull the seat over on to herself so we have pretty much given up with it and are saving it for baby number 2.
An excellent buy for a new baby that will last you several months until baby can sit unaided and can roll about.

Good Safe Supportive Play Area

Aids baby to sit up and creates a soft play area and landing if they do fall back!
When we had it as the doughnut (complete ring) it was good because it meant my son could have easy access to his toys especially because he couldn't move around much then! It also is beneficial now as my son is rolling around I can pop him in there and know he's safe if I need to pop into another room.
Now he is almost 6 months and he's trying to sit up so it's helping him with this too!
Non really, not that we've come across yet - obviously with any product you need to check its secured safetly before baby uses it and re-inflate when you notice it is not as inflated
Great all round product, keeps baby safe whilst also aiding them to sit comfortably!
