Bouncers

Baby bouncers are the perfect lounging chair for your new born.  You can use them anywhere in your home so your baby can stay close to you comfortably. 

Bouncers can be electronically programmed to soothe your baby to sleep, whereas others are designed to use the natural motion of your baby to provide their own bouncing movement.  Either way, it's a preference choice for parents to make for their own child. 

Some parents like the natural bounce without the electronic buzzing noise the motor of the bouncer makes, and some parents enjoy the use of an electronic bounce that provides music and sounds for their baby to listen to.

Age requirement:

• From new born up to 6 months / or when your baby can sit up unassisted.  Most importantly, stick to the manufacturer's weight limit as well as instructions to set up the bouncer.

• Never leave your baby unattended in a bouncer.
• Never use the bouncer if there are missing parts or damaged.
• Never carry the bouncer with your baby inside of it.
• Never use a bouncer as a car seat.
• Always keep the bouncer on the ground and safe from dangerous hazards around the house such as extra toys, electrical outlets/chords, drapes and any potential falling items. 
• Make sure the base of the bouncer is wider than the bouncer itself, that way it is stable and will not tip over.
• A harness must be used at all times for your baby, a 3-point harness is acceptable, but a 5-point harness would always be a better option. 
• Make sure the bouncer has no sharp edges.
• If your are using a used bouncer, it's important to research the up to date safety standards under ASTM. We recommend JPMA Products certified products. And always be on alert for recall baby products, see www.cpsc.gov.
• Based from the American Academy of Pediatrics, babies may be prone to positional plagiocephaly (flattened head syndrome - a persistent flat spot in the back or on one side of the head) if they spend prolonged periods of time in a bouncer/car seat.  We recommend a maximum of 30 minutes per sitting, and should alternate between carrying the baby and spending some time on the baby's stomach.

Baby Bouncer Reviews

 Bouncer Benefits

A natural look to a simple constructed bouncer with it's best feature as the smooth self-rocking motion for your baby to gently fall asleep.  We love the color selection and the color combination to a natural base wood finish.  It feels as though your home is a part of nature once this piece has been added to your furniture collection.  And with the 5-point harness (best available), your baby can use this from their first day home upto 26 lbs.

Note:  Plexistyle is made of thick solid plastic (choice of white, black and clear), whereas the stylewood is made of 2 different types of wood - natural and cappuccino.

Bouncer Improvements

Since there is no assembly the size is as is and may be cumbersome to move around when travelling or storing it away.  It is made to use permanently at home. 

 Bouncer Benefits

3 reclining positions is the usual option for a bouncer, but to add 2 vibration speeds to it is one of few that offers this feature.  It's safe with a standard 3-point harness (as long as your infant is under 25 lbs) and impressively folds nearly flat to store away or to take travelling!  And most of all, this peaceful looking infant seat will be a nice addition to your family home.

 Bouncer Improvements

Some parents might not like the vibration option to a bouncer as it can make a lot of noises (opposite of zen!), but at least it has the option of turning it off.  And although it folds flat, it takes up a bit of space when it is open.  Also, some parents are okay with a 3-point harness but a 5-point is the optimal selection when it comes to baby products.

 Bouncer Benefits

We love the structure of this baby rocker as well as the color combination.  The best feature we love is the canopy - because rockers are not just meant to use for indoors!  It would be great to bring it to a park for a picnic, that way your baby can enjoy their surroundings sitting upright in this comfortable well padded baby rocker.

Bouncer Improvements

There is not a lot of colors to choose from, in fact this is the only one... Luckily the price is quite reasonable and we can always rely on Maclaren - as it is a highly recommended baby brand from parents everywhere.
