Wouldn't recommend.

Can't think of any yet.

My baby has never been interested in this. The toys are too high, so she can't reach them. She's four months old now and I worry when she rolls over and buries her head face down in the padding.

Maybe she will like it when she's older - I am waiting to see!

Wish I'd bought something else!

Waste of money

Thickly padded, more so than other play gyms

Too expensive, toys difficult for baby to reach/see, difficult to clean

Our baby hated this playgym - we purchased it for her at 2 weeks old and tried her on it every day until she was 6 weeks old. She would cry within minutes of being placed on it even though she will happily lie and play on the sofa or the rug in our home. The toys are far too high up for a small baby to reach and are also placed too far apart. We ended up returning this to the store and purchased a basic play arch from Ikea for £19 which our baby loves and smiles at the whole time she is under it.

Looks great, but not all it's cracked up to be!

Plush mat in bright colours. 5 different activity toys with lights and music.

Musical spots are difficult for young children to press, toys are quite high on arch for babies to reach, expensive and not overly entertaining.

I loved this playgym as soon as I saw it and we had it ready for when my daughter came home. I must say that although it looks great and has the potential to be really fun, my daughter never had any real use out of it. Up to about 4-5 months I would lie her on it, but she couldn't really grab the dangly things or push the buttons to make the music start and got bored very quickly. Once she could roll herself around she went no where near it and now it's banished to her bedroom - more because I'm not ready to put it away rather than anything else and she is still unable to push the buttons to start the music at almost 10 months. In hindsight I would not spend so much money on a playgym.

a lovely comfortable gym, that kept my son happy until he could sit up.

the mat underneath its so comfy, my eldest loved sleeping on it, the toys are a good height for baby to pat at and the music on the mat is good for wriggly babies, easy to pack away and quick to set up, good looking too.

a bit pricey if your babys like my youngest who hates laying down for more than a second, my son however loved it. the toys can end up being boring as baby gets older and it is quite big if theres other children around. nightmare to clean!!

fantastic product for people who have alot of space and a content baby, lovely thick mat was the reason i chose this and my son had many a nap underneath, a really lovely bright comfy gym.
