Baby Products Reviews of Baby Einstein Baby Neptune Carrier Toy Bar
Customer Review: Kid loves it, but sure is annoying
Summary: 3 Stars
I have this attached to my daughter's car seat. We have a Chicco travel system and it does fit the handle ok and slides up and out of the way for entry/exit. Other than the expectation at the characters in the fluid window would move more than they actually do, I have two problems with it: 1) Eats batteries like crazy - and it takes THREE watch batteries that I had to order for it, because I couldn't find locally (I've stocked up), and 2) most aggrivating, the music only plays for less than 15 seconds and the button has to be pressed almost continually for music to keep playing. My 6mo old can't press it herself yet and I'm not a contortionist to be able to do it while driving. Overall a cute idea but needs a couple of fixes.Customer Review: I agree...
Summary: 4 Stars
I agree that this is a great toy and my daughter would grab it as soon as I put her in the carseat, but it is in a tough spot on the carseat for getting baby in and out. Unless you unattach it and attach it each time, it was a little difficult getting her in without moving her head to the side or moving it up out of the way without hitting her head.
Now we are in a big carseat without the handle, so I'm going to do what the other parent suggested and have her play with it on her lap. But of course that negates the thrill of moving the fish back and forth. Any other suggestions of where or how this can be hung??? I'd love to get some more use out of it and would hate to have to sell it on eBay so soon :)
Customer Review: OK, but wouldn't buy again if given the option to.
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this because my daughter loves to look at fish... but the design is bad. She likes to look at it, but she is only 2 1/2 months and can't reach the button to play the music. The button is on the left side of the toy bar, so if you are driving, you cannot reach the button to press it to play the 10 second song. If the button were on the right side of the toy bar, it would be much better. Also, like the other review said, in the Graco carseat, when the baby is in it and the toy bar is on, if you have to take the baby out, the toy bar will hit them in the head! So, you have to take it off every time you want to take the baby in or out. This may be the case on any toybar I guess, but it is an aggravation.Customer Review: So much fun!
Summary: 4 Stars
My daughter first saw this a couple months ago at babies r us while we were shopping. She immediately fell in love with it! The music is not loud or obnoxious in any way. She loves to watch the turtle and dolphin bob inside the toy and play with the toys dangling at the bottom.
I was hesitant to get this because I would soon be taking her out of the infant seat and she would be sitting upright. But now I just give it to her to play with on her lap while we are in the car and she still enjoys it.
The only reason I didnt give this 5 stars is because I wish there were a better way to make this toy "grow" with my baby. But she still has a blast with it.
A great toy for the price.
Customer Review: Possibly dangerous--leaky water, corroded batteries
Summary: 1 Stars
It's such a shame, because my son loves this toy. We got it when he was 2 months old, and it was the first toy he ever tried grasping at, plus he loves to look at it. The music actually lasts long enough to calm him, too. The second day we had it, the music wouldn't work. On closer inspection, I found that that the water was leaking onto my son, and the battery had corroded and the corrosion was dripping out. Thinking it was a lemon I took it back and got another one. After 6 weeks, it did the exact same thing. I shudder to think what would have happened if I hadn't noticed the battery corrosion/acid leaking out before it harmed my baby.
