Customer Review: The 1 star is for the cute toy! Otherwise its horrible!
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased two of these Jump N Go's for my twin sons, when they were about 6 months old... and I HATE them!
First of all we bought them since its easier to move the jumpers from room to room than the exersaucer's. I also knew my sons LOVED jumping, and the Jump and Go seemed to be fitted with the most toys. There is actually only one toy, but it plays music, and seemed to be the most entertaining of all of the jumpers.
I have to admit, the assembly was horrible! Well, one of them went together no problem, but the other one just wouldnt click! It was completely ridiculous, so we wound up exchanging it for another, which was easily assembled while we were in BRU... This is obviously not a huge problem, but it may happen to someone! Attaching them to the doorframe was also easy, and they seemed very sturdy. I put my sons in them for about 3 minutes, (in a doorway measuring about 12 ft across!) before I decided they were unsafe!
(1) It seemed like when the boys would jump maybe 4 times in a row, that the clip that holds it over the molding would start slipping out of place! I began to hold the jumpers still when this happened, and watch the clip "slip" back into place, this is certainly not safe!
(2) The boys were banging against the doorframe really hard! I know that they were both in a jumper in one doorway, but it was basically the same room they would have if it was one child in one average sized doorframe. They would also look up at the cross above their heads, causing the jumper to sway over to the doorway and crush their fingers, and bang their heads!
(3) The jumper didnt "jump" right. I believe its for the reason described in a previous review, its built "backwards". When we later purchased the bumper jumper, the twins were fine, and used a lot less energy to jump in them!
(4) They happened to be wearing white onsies, and they were wet with baby drool... The onsies turned BLUE, which came right off of the dye on the seat! I wasn't sure how dangerous this was, or what would happen to the twins if they ingested the stuff, but obviously it wouldn't be washable either!
(5) The seat was also oddly designed. Instead of "propping them up" in a standing position, it sort of set them up with their legs sticking outward... This seemed very awkward, and the boys were leaning forward the entire time, I guess to achieve the correct placement to jump? I know that babies lean foward in most jumpers, but I KNOW that they are supposed to be supported into a standing position, not held in a "sitting" position, anyway this was never a problem with the Graco!
(6) The spring was VERY noisy! At first I didnt purchase these to keep the noise level down, but since the saucers have music (not too loud, but music none the less) I now know its better to have something like this WITHOUT music and sounds... I actually wouldn't have cared, but the music is about 10 x noisier than that of my saucers! No WAY you could watch television with your baby jumping in this apparatus. It was also the kind of noise that worries me, like it sounds as if its malfunctioning, which is very odd since the Jump and Go isn't mechanical at all!
I was quick to return the jumpers, came home with two new Gracos, and am very satisfied... MUCH better quality, and we just add on our own toys (especially since they provide you with the "links" to attach toys to).. I would stay away from this jumper, its not good at all!
