Evenflo ExerSaucer Triple Fun+ World Explorer Bouncing Activity Saucer

LO got this as an early Christmas present. DH put it together and he recommends a power screwdriver. He said without that, pushing down the springs while trying to manually tighten the screws would have been a two person job. I would suggest making sure not to over tighten when using the power drill. Set up was pretty quick -- maybe 30-45 minutes? The toys sit in predetermined niches on the play table area and the extra play mat is separate. LO received this when she was about 3.5 months. So far we have used the tummy time mat and the Excersaucer parts. Review on both: * Play Mat & Overhanging Toys - The mat has little bit of padding to it which is nice if you have hard floor surfaces - The bases for the overhanging toys are not so good if your baby is rolling-- they are light weight and move all directions if they are hit. This is true if your baby is strong enough to grab the butterflies and pull. LO did sit under it for a while, but not as interactive as her other two play mat. I would recommend this almost as a travel play mat, but not your primary one-- not entertaining enough. We now use the mat for straight floor play and tummy time. - The design is fun and interesting. LO tries to grab at the animal pattern. * Excersaucer - LO did not like her first sit in the excersaucer. I do not think she understood what to do or how the toys worked. I put it in her play routine to acclimate her to it. After about a week she would grab the dragonfly and try to reach for the butterflies. - It took her another two weeks to learn how to swivel, but for some reason, she only swivels to the left (like Zoolander, lol). But she will probably learn the other way soon. Once she figured out to move, she swiveled around to each little station. - The three level changes are easy to adjust. We had her on the second notch when we got it, but she didn't understand that it was more than just a seat, so we had to lower it. Once we lowered it, she could stand and sit, then move the seat around. She is now on the second level and moves at ease. LO is about 26" and she can stand flat footed on the level 2 notch. - The toys are entertaining enough, but she does get bored with a longer sit. The iguana is motion activated and sometimes will go off if the baby moves too much. I put extra toys in the voids so she has ones she can pick up and put into her mouth. - All the toys have an off switch. Buy batteries. They haven't died yet (one month in), but three of the toys require them. - The globe toy rotates. We didn't know this at first, and LO would hit the same gorilla one over and over and over again. Now we turned the earth, and we get to hear the cat over and over again, lol. - The monkeys are okay. LO has not figured out they can go to the other side. She just likes to hit them on the bottom. One note, I had one of the monkeys at the top, and then forgot. LO started batting at the other monkey at the bottom and the top monkey followed the track and squished her little fingers. It was my fault, but I could see once she learns how to slide them this might become an issue. - The parrot on a tree is one of her favorites to spin, however, when she is facing away from the parrot and sometimes jumps back, it has come close to hitting her in the head. Make sure it is pointed to the sides when not playing with it. - The dragonfly just sits there and she loves it. She bends it almost out of the base to try to get it into her mouth. - The butterflies she cannot reach yet. Maybe when she gets taller. - Make sure to take the cardboard collar off from around the blue bird. We did not know that it squeaked when depressed (we just found out this yesterday after owning it for a month). Overall, I would recommend. I was worried at first since she did not warm up to it all that quickly, but now she happily plays in it for about 20 minutes. LO is still too young for the stand-up part, so I cannot review that.

Oh my gosh so much fun for baby! (And for momma & daddy to watch!) Love love love the colors and how many different activities there are. We were too old to use the baby gym mat, we are on the bouncer stage right now and are loving it. Baby (5 months) has figured out how to play the jungle music, how to move the birdie, how to bat at the butterflies, and his most favorite part, how to pull down and chew on the (soft!) dragonfly. I will say the way he swings it wildly around makes me nervous he's going to poke his eye, but that's an easy solution: monitor baby when they're playing. If I need to use the exersaucer as a babysitter while I go do something, I find it entertaining and safe enough to walk away, and simple enough to remove the dragonfly for that time period (I'm sure it would be just fine to leave it on, just the exact eye-level of my child, and the way he likes to pull at this particular piece, I feel more at ease removing when he's unsupervised. Doesn't mean you will need to or feel the same). I am also excited about stage 3, I love multi-function toys and the fact that he won't grow out of it quite as quickly. I think it will be entertaining enough a year or more down the line when he's out of the bouncer and able to stand / walk around it in Stage 3. One thing I will mention so you know to expect it, there are a gazillion parts to this thing. I had every intention to put it together myself, opened the box, and said no effing way. I waited until a quiet weekend afternoon when hubby wasn't up to much, brought him a beer, and asked in my sweetest voice if he would put it together. He was not excited when he saw all the parts and used a few choice words, but the beer helped. Just expect it, and know it is adorable and totally worth watching baby bounce around and explore with so much delight once that dreadful hour of your life is over :) I see that there are plenty of cheaper options half the price, and I am sure they work fine. I can't comment further as I've never used one nor seen them in person, but I went for this model because I thought there were enough activities to keep him entertained. I didn't see as many attachments on other bouncers. Also the conversion to toddler toy was a good selling point to really stretch my investment. I love it and have zero regrets about spending the extra $$$ on this cadillac if you will.

My son LOVED LOVED LOVED this..... until he was 7 months old, LOL!!! Aside from this little nugget of personal experience, I would highly recommend this product as it will keep your child entertained so that you may get some tasks done around the house. We got this when he was 4 months old and it was well worth the money. Many people complain that this is difficult to set up at a certain point, but I did not have any such problem. I just followed the instructions and used a bit of logic to accomplish the task. PROS: + colors are playful and fun (subjective) + the toys are a good mix of sound, texture, and helps with dexterity, etc. My wife approves since she is a teacher and knows more about what children need, so there! + the bounce factor is AWESOME! He LOVED it! + Adjustable legs for the growing babe + multiple toys + initial "play mat" setup for very young babes, then converts to the upright bounce center for babes that can hold their heads up + lots of songs and sounds CONS: - RED! YELLOW! AND BLUUUUUUUUUE!!! You will hear this GD song over and over and over! I have no idea if my child hates it or loves it as he happily bounces away. The Blue Chameleon sings this song over and over and I have no idea how it is supposed to be triggered! You merely bump into the Exersaucer and there it goes again. - magnet for pet fur. What child toy isn't? But the material it is made of tends to attract dog hair - The useless birds in the back: one is a horn, one is a rattle, and one is supposed to be a drum, but you can't really drum on it as it doesn't have a reflexive surface. He ignores these toys. In closing, I would HIGHLY recommend you get this as soon as you have your child so that it could be used to its full potential (play mat to exersaucer). It will keep your little one entertained and quite busy so you can do what you need to around the house. But Caveat Emptor: "Red, Yellow, Blue" will haunt you! Have fun!

Researched many of these and this was the one I decided to go with. It has so many things that my daughter loved in her Bright Start Jungle activity Gym. I used to be a skills developer and looking at this I could see many pro's compared to others as well. So I went for it. It was cheaper on here than at the store. So I bought it with my prime account and me and my husband put it together. If you are no stranger to putting items together it is as easy as pie. It looked more complicated than it really was. The directions has it for newborn up but we wanted the saucer so it is stage II directions. I use the mat for her to get belly time still. She was 3 1/2 months when I ordered it. She was wearing 6 month clothes though and we had to start it on the second notch. She has progressed so much since getting it. She hated belly time and wanted to stand but not crawl. So this item was perfect for her. She has a blast and I put her in it 2 to 3 times a day. She has a blast while she is in it. I don't leave her in it more than 15 minutes right now but I let her get in 2 to 3 times a day. I noticed the difference in her skill development of fine and gross motor skills immediately. After one week she was much stronger. She was a little behind on gross motor due to her not liking belly time. But this solved that. I like that I can turn it into a work bench later on too. But for this month alone it was totally worth it! She has something that has peaked her interest in play and challenges her physically. This item is AWESOME!

We bought this Exersaucer after reading reviews for it and other exersaucers. Pros: -Beautiful colorful toys that engage our son and he enjoys. -Multiple toys play music/light up (Chamelon, Aligator, and the globe) -Keeps my super active son engaged for a moment so I can do the dishes or eat :) -Seat spins so that your child can play with all the toys and keep an eye on you too. - Initially all the toys were overwhelming for my son, so it was nice that I could take some off so he wasn't so overwhelmed. Cons: -Seat isn't padded at all. Its just a thin piece of cloth that goes around the plastic base. It seems like this would be uncomfortable for more than 10 mins or so at a time. - It took an hour to put together. It was fine because I let my son play with the toys while I was putting it together, but with 3 different size springs and a giant book, it is a task. - While it allows for some up and down movement, it doesn't really allow your child to bounce. I know it isn't a jumper, but I just wanted to clarify that it only goes up and down a small amount when the child stands and sits. - Some of the toys come out easily. My son Loves the Parrot and the dragonfly and he pulls them out regularly. - Needs 9 AAA batteries. In conclusion, I am glad that we got it for our son because at any moment I can cook/do dishes/ go to the restroom while knowing my son is safe and entertained. I do wish some of the Cons had be dealt with by Evenflo.

EDIT: The kid is now 17 months. We've moved into the final stage of the Exersaucer, where it's something that he can walk around. It's still highly entertaining for him, but it is not the sturdiest piece of equipment on its legs. Still, it's great that it's still going regularly after almost a year! **** EDIT: The kid is now 14 months and still going strong with this Exersaucer! It's rare he lasts more than 20 minutes these days, but considering how short his attention span is at this stage, that's still great! We've been meaning to graduate it to the final stage so he can cruise around it (still not walking), but haven't done it because of space considerations (it's nice that it's still contained). **** We have the Fisher-Price Rainforest Jumperoo , and it was a lifesaver between months 3.5 and 6.5. After that, it was still a go-to, but the kiddo just wasn't as excited (read: it was harder to distract him long enough to take a shower or do anything else meaningfully!). We decided to get this exersaucer to keep in the bedroom after reading the reviews, and I'm so glad we did. He spins around and around in it playing with all of the animals. He also bounces up and down like a maniac. It's hilarious to watch. He sometimes plays happily for 45 minutes, which is an awesome amount of time for which I am completely grateful. You should note that the iguana sings nonstop, seemingly unprompted. I don't mind it but it drives my husband crazy. You can turn it off. All in all, I don't find the music to be annoying, but could see how others might find it a little grating. I am looking forward to seeing whether the kiddo can actually grow with this, which was part of the reason we went with this version.

My daughter loves this bouncer and has used it regularly since 4 months old. She's a bit larger than typical for her age, despite being 3 weeks early, so we just padded her seat with a blanket or two until she was big and strong enough to sit unassisted in the seat. She's tall, so at barely 8 months, she's on the highest setting and can still stand flat footed. Unfortunately, she isn't mobile enough for me to convert it to the toddler setting yet, but we haven't had any issues with her toppling it over. She did manage to pull the dragonfly toy off the tray and it won't attach snuggly anymore; she now uses its wings as a teething toy. I don't think it was due to any defect in the product that she broke it but rather that she tends to be a bit rough with her toys. In all, it's been a great bouncer and sturdy with the exception of the dragonfly attachment, and it's not as though she hasn't tried to get the other toys off. She is a high energy baby and doesn't stick to one toy for long, but the bouncer let's her burn off some energy while she jumps, dances and plays in it, and I don't have to worry about her getting into anything. Assembly wasn't too hard, just a bit time consuming, but worth it. Overall, great purchase.

My husband and I were looking for and exersaucer that had a good amount of activities on top for our daughter and this one is great because it is gender neutral. We look for more gender neutral things because we want to keep it for our next child. Our daughter loves this and we love seeing the progression she makes with each toy and bouncing up and down. We are just now getting to the point where we will have to change it to a table instead of a seat. She's a little over 9 months and is standing in it versus sitting. All the other exersaucers that we looked at didn't transform into a table that she can use after she's past that sitting age. This fact alone makes it worth the money as it grows with her and therefore lasts longer. Each toy is great for different reasons. There are only two things that might be wrong with ours but it isn't that big of a deal so I never worried about it. The ribbon on the birds head frayed quickly but I just cut it a little when it did that. To me, not really a big deal. The parrot on the branch toy never fit in the slot perfectly. It was loose so when my daughter would focus on that toy, it would end up bending towards her as if it was coming out and then with more play it would just completely come out and fall to the floor. Again, not that big of a deal to me, you can just put it back again. It took a couple minutes to fully assemble but it wasn't too difficult. It does take up a little room which is sort of a problem for us as well don't have much space to begin with but I won't lower my rating for that because I knew it was going to be fairly big when I ordered it. Overall, great product and I would recommend to anyone looking to entertain a child while you can keep your hands free to get something else done.

Lo pedí para reyes decía q podía llegar entre el 6 al 9 de enero , me arriesgué y gracias a Dios me llegó hasta antes de la fecha , estaba súper asustada, gracias a Dios me llegó el 30 d diciembre. El vendedor creo q era una chica y muy atent@. Lo malo fue el envío , xq la caja llegó maltratada , jajajaja mi esposo pensaba que era un juguete usado. Pero no, súper bonito , todo estaba y todo estaba empaquetado. Si el dueño hubiera tenido la culpa de como vino la caja le pregunté pondría 4 estrellas, pero todo estuvo bien así que le doy las 5.

Um excelente producto, tenía mis dudas por el precio, pero definitivamente vale la pena, es de buena calidad, buen tamaño a mi bebé le encanta y creo que le durará bastante, aparte siento que si le ayuda a ejercitar sus piernitas y pararse con más firmeza, todos los juguetes que incluye son llamativos para ellos P. D El material es resistente y seguro es difícil que puedan voltearlo ellos mismos

Me gustó mucho, el juguete es muy seguro, con los colores muy vivos y muy bonito diseño. Hice una muy buena compra, lo digo porque a mi hijo le encantó y lo entretiene mucho. Trae sonido el mundito y sonido de animales y el cocodrilo también trae sonidos de selva aparte de que es como un brincolin. Mi calificación es de 10, 100% recomendable.

Mi bebé ama este centro de entretenimiento desde que lo puse ahí le encanto y a mi me ayudó a tener más tiempo para mi

Miu recomendable, a mi bebé le encanta!
