Baby Products Reviews of Fisher-Price Rainforest Peek-A-Boo Waterfall Soother
Customer Review: Three Years Old and Going Strong
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this soother three years ago when we had our first child. It was one of the few purchases as a newbie parent that I actually got right on the first try.
I love, love, LOVE the music and nature noises on this soother. In my experience, others tend to have a tinny or canned electronic quality to their sound, but both the nature sounds and songs are realistic and quite pleasant. I also love the bubbling water, which makes a soothing gurgling noise, and the hypnotic swing of the monkey. The backlight of the waterfall shifts subtly, mimicking the movement of real water shimmering in the light. The lowest volume setting is perfect.
But enough about me. The proof is in the pudding, and my now three year old daughter STILL uses this soother every night to fall asleep. Starting when she about 7 months old, I would stumble into her bedroom after hearing her cry out in the night, only to find her back on her tummy with the soother on, sleeping soundly. Heaven!
There has been literally no deterioration of this product after multiple nightly uses, three years running. As for the brightness, I suppose that's a personal preference. My daughter never seemed bothered by the light, which to me seems no brighter than your average nightlight. Maybe the color of the light makes it seem brighter; since its ambient glow is blue, it is inherently more noticeable?
It is true that the monkey on our soother does emit a small, plasticky creak when swinging. The volume of the creak is quiet enough that it doesn't present a problem. Besides, as many parents will tell you, children--particularly infants--will often find comfort in repetitive noises that we may consider grating. The monkey's noise is rhythmic, quiet, and consistent (i.e. it makes the same exact noise for the same exact duration each time), so in my experience, it doesn't detract at all from the soothing qualities.
When we had our second daughter two months ago, I was foolishly trapped into a world of pink like I never was with my first girl, so I bought the pink Fisher Price Dreamland soother. I really wish I'd just purchased a second rainforest one. The sounds on the Dreamland are fake and too loud, and the projection feature is a weak stream of light emitting at too awkward an angle to position where baby can see. Trust me: I got it right the first time. You should, too!
