Baby Products Reviews of Fisher-Price Rainforest Waterfall Peek-a-Boo Soother
Customer Review: Nice but has an issue
Summary: 4 Stars
First of all, I liked the look of this toy from the beginning, it's really cute. So, I purchased it even knowing it had an issue or two from other customer reviews.
It squeaks. Really bad. At first it was fine, I'd say it worked for around 4 months before I started to hear a noise. Then it started to get louder. I like to leave it on the nature setting with the very soft jungle noises, so when it does squeak you can hear it.
It's a battery hog. It seems like we go through so many batteries with this thing. My daughter loves it, but I don't want to keep replacing the batteries so often.
Other than that, we love it. It's nice and soothing, the music is really sweet, and it something for my daughter to look at and touch. Just wish the moving parts didn't squeak.
Customer Review: Perfect in every way except...
Summary: 4 Stars
I ordered two of these while I was pregnant with twin boys. It came with batteries that actually worked for several months. My sons LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this soother!
Imagine my dismay when I finally had to change the batteries to find that one of them had movement and light, but no sound! I called the help desk who said they couldn't help me, I had to call the Germany help desk where no one spoke English. They told me I had to mail in the soother for them to repair it. I plan to do that this week sometime.
In the meantime, I've had to see a very disappointed 4 month old little boy. Every time my son gets into his bed he's looking around for his soother. So for the last few weeks I've let them bunk together.
Other than that, this is a great addition to any nursery.
Customer Review: Feh.
Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this with the hope that it would help my 5 month old fall asleep in his crib. Not so much. He does find it entertaining for a few minutes, but I haven't noticed any soothing occurring. I agree with another reviewer that the lights are WAY too bright if you're trying to put a baby to sleep (he's actually winced when I've turned it on in the darkened room), so I ended up covering it with a blanket to help dull it a little. And the monkey and frog squeak when they move so I have to turn that feature off too. And it doesn't stay on for as long as I thought it would (I chose this over another for that specific reason). So all in all, a waste of money. I'll keep it and maybe it will entertain him long enough for me to get in a quick shower, but for sleeping purposes it's a complete wash.Customer Review: Nice crib distractor
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a fantastic little crib distraction, I can leave my son in his crib now for almost 10 minutes! He loves to be held and be around me so yes that is the longest he will stay busy without someone in the room. I just wish it lasted longer, I think it is a great device, however if it could last about 15-20 minutes, that would be amazing! Definitely catches my 5 month old son's attention and keeps him enthralled for several minutes, though he looses interest, he will look around then come back to it, but generally it just doesn't last as long, which is the reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5. Otherwise its a great buy for your baby. fun bubbles, and moving objects inside, with fun up beat music, not for sleeping! definitely for an awake babay as the light inside is pretty bright too.Customer Review: Our babies love this
Summary: 5 Stars
When our twins outgrew their mobile we bought this because it looked cool. Well we knocked it out of the park with this one. They both like looking at the cute little monkey swing up and down, and they also like the music and rain forest sound effects. And you know how some kids toys make sounds that are annoying to adults? Well this one actually is pretty enjoyable! The toy itself has textured "bubbles" so it is a tactile experience as well as a audio/visual one. Overall it seems like a lot of thought and creativity went into this toy. I like that there is a volume control, as well as an option to just play music or the sounds or both. This helps the girls settle down, not every time, but often. We have the Fisher Price Aquarium soother, and it's not nearly as cool as this one.
