Baby Products Reviews of Baby Einstein Seek & Discover Activity Gym
Customer Review: Expected much more from Baby Enstein
Summary: 3 Stars
This gym does not have much going for it other than the motion light star that hangs from the top and plays music with lights. The toys are quite small and don't make much noise. The mat has faded tremendously after 3 washings. Mirror is so tiny my twins have still not noticed it. The picture of the rabbit is also useless. We've had to add our own toys to make this entertaining. The mat does not have any textures or noise features to encourage movement. Tiny Love Deluxe is a much better buy. You will be disapointed with this gym if you know better.Customer Review: A fun play mat for my little man
Summary: 5 Stars
My baby boy has never been into toys that dangle and rattle, so it has been tricky finding him things that would keep him interested to encourage exploration and learning. So when I got the Baby Einstein Play Gym from a friend, I was skeptical. But my baby boy loved it the first time I laid him on it. He especially liked the little star that displays lights as it plays music. I think that's the biggest thing that kept him really focused on this toy for a while. As for the duck, the bird, the other stuff hanging on this play mat, he did use them as punching bags which is pretty cute. Now that my boy lays on his tummy more and more, he's beginning to explore the images on the mat with gusto. I like this product and highly recommend it!Customer Review: They removed the lights from the star!
Summary: 1 Stars
After researching all of the different mats for our daughter we chose the Baby Einstein one solely because of the star with lights. If you read through the reviews here you'll see that a huge number of people mention that the star is what makes this set worthwhile.
We received our mat today and the star no longer has the lights in it. Since looking at lights is the current favorite activity of our 1 month old we were extremely disappointed. We called Baby Einstein and they confirmed that even though the packaging and instructions still say the star has lights that the star has indeed had the lights removed. They had no explanation why this was done.
What a shame.
Customer Review: A few faults, but overall, a really good play gym
Summary: 4 Stars
What I like about it:
1. Easy to tear down for laundering the blanket
2. Lots of "links" to move the toys around - keeps things interesting
3. We can put other small toys on the links for added variety
4. She loved it laying down, and now that she's sitting up, she still loves it
What I don't like about it:
1. The blanket looks faded after just a few washings (cold water, delicate cycle, with Dreft)
2. The volume on the musical star is pretty loud and only plays 3 songs, which gets on your nerves after a while
3. The open-ended design of the links causes them to stretch easily when your baby grabs a toy and yanks on it - ours now look more like the letter "C" than like a chain link
Overall, we like it, but if I had it to do over again I might research play gyms a bit more. This one was kind of expensive (we paid $50), and I think we could have found something a little better if we hadn't been so excited about the Baby Einstein name.
Customer Review: Starry is great
Summary: 5 Stars
My daughter loves to play on this mat. The hanging toys are okay, but she absolutely loves the flashing star on top, which we affectionately call Starry. She will stare at it and kick around like crazy. It keeps her occupied for long periods of time.
