Baby Products Reviews of Fisher-Price Ocean Wonders Aquarium BouncerCustomer Review: A must-have Summary: 4 Stars
I do not know what I would have done without this bouncer. I received it as a gift at my baby shower and used it almost since I came back from the hospital with my daughter. She LOVED it from the beginning. At first she would not enjoy the toy bar since the noise and the lights would be too much for her. I would then only use it so she could be with me wherever I went, without being alone and without having her ALWAYS lying down on her back (I figured whe would bore from the same position). She would nap in it frequently (the vibrating function come in very handy as it is very soothing). Now that she is almost 3 months old I have reintroduced the toy bar and finds it interesting...for a while.
I even carry it with me when I leave her at my mom's house. It's a way for her to be with us in whatever room we're in and to be able to easily look around and participate in our daily lives...
I rate it a 4 instead of a 5 because the toys are too far away for her to grab them.
Customer Review: FUN, FUN, FUN!!! Summary: 5 Stars
This is the best bouncer I have ever seen! I am a teacher, and I used to work at a day care where there were many types of bouncers. I put my daughter in this bouncer when she was only a few days old and she started to kick the toys right away. I love the baby activated mode... this rewards her with music and a bubbly fish show each time she kicks it. I have never put it on the continuous music mode becuase my daughter likes to see and hear the sounds it makes when she kicks it. I am amazed that she started to focus on the starfish and kissing fish at about 2 weeks old. She is now two months old and still loves this chair. I love to watch her play and scream with joy when she makes the fish swim. It is nice that the toy attatchment is removable and it also has a vibration feature. I am very happy with this item. Everyone should have one for their little bundles of joy...especially if they are "kickers" (my baby seemed to be running a marithon in the womb, this maybe why she loves it so much)!
Customer Review: I'm an Ocean Wonders Addict Summary: 4 Stars
This bouncer is great. It is so easy to take apart and put back together again that we have taken it on several trips. Also, once taken apart, everything will fit into a brown grocery sack; very travel friendly. The seat cover washes very easily and after having this 8 months, it looks brand new. I also love how you can take off the activity bar, but be careful. After explaining to my mom (a pediatric RN with more than 30 years experience) that you have to be careful when you take off the bar with the baby in it because it is top heavy, she promptly banged him in the head. He is fine, but please learn from that mistake if you buy this bouncer.
This item loses a star for two reasons: 1) you have to take your child out and take the seat cover off in order to change the batteries, 2) the bubbling part seems to be making more noise than it did when we first bought it.
This is a great bouncer, and if I had to do it over again, I would have still bought the same one.
Customer Review: Wonderful Bouncer Summary: 5 Stars
My baby loves this bouncer. We started using it when he was 2 months. He enjoys watching the fish in the aquarium and the green light on top. He'll fall asleep in it and looks extremely comfortable. The vibration in the seat is an added plus since my little boy loves motion. This seat took only 5 minutes to put together. Very easy. The only thing that has disappointed me is that the aquarium has started leaking after only 3 weeks of use, however, I called Fisher-Price and they are replacing it free of charge. My little boy will just have to go roughly 7-10 days without the bubbling water, kissing and spinning fish feature, which are some of the great features on this bouncy. Overall extremely satisfied with product and with customer service. There were no hundreds of questions, all that was needed were the model number and a date the product was purchased. I would highly recommend buying this bouncer. I give this bouncer 5 stars because Fisher-Price customer service was wonderful.
Customer Review: Looks Great but MANY flaws Summary: 1 Stars
I have to say I am amazed at all the raving reviews for this product. I am extremely disappointed with this bouncer. I received it as a shower gift since I had registered for it after reading all the GREAT reviews. WELL...here are my issues. The chair sits way too straight and doesn't provide that snuggle feel. Then the belt is tiny and if you have a chunky baby it almost doesn't fit him. So the tiny belt down low with all the weight my overzealous 4 month old is able to flip himself. Luckily I have been in the room when he almost had his accident. Also the lights and sounds are nice but the toys are really out of reach for the infant and they have to lean forward which goes back to my other comment about flipping. I thought the first instance was just an isolated incident so I put him in it and watched him and sure enough he went for the toys and the thing started going forward. I DO NOT recommend this bouncer because I feel like there are some MAJOR safety issues with it.
