Again we were lucky enough to have this bought as a gift, would have found it hard to take the plunge and buy ourselves.

In hindsight it would have been a good investment though!

Pros:
Baby loved it, once he got used to it
Range of activities
Height adjustable
Doesn't damage your door frame or wall like a door bouncer
Has music with different settings
Looks nice
He would fall asleep in it!!! (for a baby who would only sleep on us, this was a big bonus! It also looked adorable...)

Cons:
Takes us quite a bit of space
Toys a bit ill thought-out - although they are mostly different they are a bit poor (two are spinning things - one is a tiger who pops up by about 1cm - point?!)
It is very awkward to clean - if you are lucky enough to have sick-ups in it like we did, the gaps around the toy sections seep it up (lovely) - and you have to try to unclip them from underneath, very annoying!
When we started using it, it was far too high for baby - had to put a book underneath him, but he had no grip! So ended up with a contraption of things just so he could go in it and push up with his legs
I suspect not every baby will take to it - it took a while for our little one to become used to it
Once he was at a certain height he could reach the dangle toys and pull them out of their fixings, bending and nearly snapping their weak plastic

Hope this helps, no doubt there are other jumperoo users out there to add things I'm forgetting!

We are jumperoo fans too - Iz used hers til she was about 1 and then decided she didnt want to kept still in one place!

Cerys loved hers!!! Another down point, they should have put more height ranges on it. Cerys is getting too long for hers but she still has soooo much fun and would prob last another 6 months - such a shame

oliver still loves his, well for a little while...just moved up to setting 3 this morning which was quite fiddly and got a bit stressed with it lol, he cant really reach the floor yet but no chance im changing it back (change comp to jumperoo) lol xx

Adam loves his, he bounces himself to sleep a lot of the time x

My Nanna has given me the money to buy Hannah a Jumperoo as a Christening gift and I've been looking online and there are 3 different designs. Just wondering which one you have all got and how you rate the toys/design? I quite like the look of the precious planet one but the rainforest one looks like it will take up less space? The Ocean wonders one looks a bit more boyish? lol.

Also at what age did you start putting your LOs in. Hannah is still too young so Im not in a massive rush to get it and will hold out to see if I can see any offers anywhere. I started Thomas in his door bouncer (he loved it but we have moved and it wont fit any of our door frames here) at 3 months for a few minutes at a time and he loved it, I increased the time as he got stronger - is it a similar principle?

Sorry for all the questions - it's just quite a lot of money for a "toy" so would like to be sure I'm getting the right thing.

debs- i have the rainforest one, the toys are great for oliver as he loves things that spin and there are a few spinny things. i havent really looked at the others so cant compare really.
id say its the same principle as the door bouncer thing, just judge by your own babies strength...leo went in way earlier(door bouncer) as he was a lot stronger and bigger x

callum has the rainforest one he loved it when he couldnt sit up right and crawl but soon as he could do this he didnt wanna be init but he loved the toys and music on it xx
defo would reccomend it xx

we have the rainforest one, and I cant wait for Jess to fit in it!!

Isla was besotted with it until about 12-13mths xxx

Wil adored his jumperoo and used it until he got too big to fit his legs in the seat at about 11 months.

I bought Wil's on ebay for about £40 and sold it for the same 8 months later so cost neutral Even at £90 it would have been money well spent.

For cleaning I ended up scrubbing it with an electric toothbrush with an old head on it. Lots of sick ups on it here too.

i have to add, im put off with mines. bens physio told us how it encourages them to do the throw them self back motion, this can hinder their progress. to be fair, i am not 100% sure if this is ALL babies or just babies like ben with Low Muscle Tone ? . my sister and us have noticed with my nephew that all its done is taught him to wanna bounce every time he is picked up lol !! such a wee monkey ha!

all in thou, its a good buy for short periods of time. knocks of some energy when ur trying to do chores around ur home x

ummm well our opinion differs! elijah hated his, i think it was just too much for him with all the stuff making noises - he screamed his head off. we tried it at just under 6 months, again at 7 then at 8 and when we moved house we sold it for about £70 so only about a fiver down!
