Great baby entertainer
I received the Baby Einstein discovery center (we call it a saucer) as a gift for my daughter when she was 6 months old. She loved it from the start! At first she just wanted to get all the toys into her mouth and I did have to remove the purple medallions with animal photos because the paper photos were peeling off. Now at 7.5 months, my baby loves to dance to the music from the piano toy. I've heard the three tunes many, many times over the past month and they still don't grate on my nerves. Some reviews have mentioned that the toys fall off, but I haven't seen any pop out of their sockets. As for tipping over, I haven't seen the saucer come anywhere close to falling over. However, when my daughter became tall enough to push hard against the bottom (she would try to lunge and jump) we raised the seat so she could only touch the bottom with her toes. This is what the directions say to do, but I could see how a strong baby could lunge hard enough to topple the whole thing over if the saucer was set too short. (My tall 7.5 month old is already at the highest setting so we'll probably have to retire this toy in another month or so.) Also, I have always used the stabilizers so it doesn't rock. Regarding the stabilizers, we noticed a defect in the way the plastic was molded so that one of the stabilizer feet didn't fit correctly into the slot on the bottom of the saucer. The original saucer we received as a gift via Walmart online had this problem so we exchanged it for an identical item at a local store. The new one had the same problem! We tinkered with it for a while then just jammed the plastic foot into the slot as best we could. The defect doesn't affect the toys or anything the baby can get a hold of, so we figured as long as the saucer remained stable it would be okay. We haven't had any problems with it.

Pleased
I like this exersaucer. It has a lot of stuff on it which my baby enjoys and I like that it has 3 levels of height. The only con is that it does not collapse easy. You can take it apart but the pieces are hard to if not impossible to take out.

Toys Falling Off
This is a very colorful and seemingly fun exersaucer at first glance. However the toys CONSTANTLY fall off and leave my 5 month old very frustrated. I went back to the store and examined the floor model and it seemed very sturdy and well made......I just wonder how I wound up with a model that is so poorly made!!! I paid around $70 for this and I'm going to try to take it back. It seriously is a PIECE OF JUNK!!!!

great toy!
This is a great toy for when you need to get something done (like laundry, dishes, vacumming, etc.) but don't have hands to hold the baby, or you don't want her on the floor. It's also a good learning experience; my 5 month old daughter seems so deep in concentration when playing with the attached toys. There's a good variety of skills needed for the different toys, and the "piano" is a huge hit! My daughter gets so excited when she pushes the buttons and makes a song start!

I'm also happy that the seat is machine washable and can go in the dryer. Only thing I wish I'd realized is that the seat doesn't bounce...just spins so the baby can face all the different toys. Still, she doesn't seem to care that her seat isn't bouncing; she's happy enough with the toys.

I recommend this product!

Wonderful toy
My 5 1/2 month old daughter absolutely loves this toy. She is extremely active and this is just about the only thing that keeps her attention for longer than 15 minutes! The moment I put her in it for the first time, she started banging on the piano and singing! She figured it out really fast aswell, she'll play with the 2 toys in front of her for 5 minutes or so, then turn around to something else when she starts to get bored. Her favorites are the piano, the giraffe, and the pandas. I do wish the lion puppet with the drum actually made sound, because my daughter loves to hit drums. I'll sit her on my lap with a djembe or darbuka and she'll bang away- and she can keep time! Very musical little one. Some parents expressed concerns about how easily it can tip- I see this potential, and that is why I play WITH her as opposed to using it as a baby sitter. I sit right next to it and interact with her, applauding her music and putting my hand in the puppet and such. If I do go even a few steps away from her, I put pillows all around the base just in case, but I would never leave her unattended in this or any toy. Some babies might not have a problem with this, but she is a big girl and doesn't hold still- she is constantly bouncing and dancing, and she's 28in tall and 18lbs.

My 4-month-old cannot get enough!
I bought the "office" when my son was 3 months old. He was too little, so I put a wii board underneath his feet and placed him in the seat, stabilizing him with my arms while he practiced standing and only stared at the toys. He mostly enjoyed the standing part. A few days later, he started grabbing the yellow sun and "talking" to it. As time went on, he warmed to the other toys. And, the day he turned 4 months old, the flip SWITCHED and he suddenly fell IN-LOVE with the entire center. He figured out how to activate and interact with all of the toys, he spins himself around, he gets so excited that he starts yelling with joy! When I play with him, he will play in the activity center for 20 or 30 minutes. And if he is playing by himself, he is entertained for about 15 minutes, which is far longer than any other toy or activity.

Baby Einstein Discover
Grandson took to it immediately and looks for it as soon as he comes over. Even though he was 4 months when it arrived it reduced down low enough he could sit up in it and touch the base as long as I put a towel or blanket for his feet since he's not into wearing shoes yet.

Great Product
Very satisfied with this product. Did a lot of research before buying it and compared to the others that are cheaper, this is way much better. Colors look brighter in the pictures, but still cute and nice. Toys are nice and the circle part has sounds, music and talks both English and Spanish languages.The seat seems comfy and rotates, I actually feed my daughter while playing with the toys sometimes. Very easy to clean.

Best exersaucer I've seen
My daughter loves this! We started using it around 4 months (when her back and neck got nice and strong) and now at six months she still loves it and uses it every day. She plays happily in it while I am getting ready in the morning and when I am working in the kitchen in the evening. It gives her the opportunity to be upright and see what's going on, but have a good way to entertain herself as well. The older she gets the more she enjoys it because she can do more of the activities herself instead of needing me to show her how. I shopped around a lot and this is the best one I saw. Some of the activity centers really don't have much on the tray for the kids to do, play with, or learn. This one is really great. Oh and for some reason my daughter loves the alligator puppet. She will sit and kiss and talk to it forever.

First Timer
I wanted my son to have a variety of materials to touch while playing. All of the exersaucers I saw in the stores had objects made only of hard plastic (probably to make it easy to clean). This had soft toys and hard ones that all made different types of noises. I am very pleased with it!! The volume on the music/animal sounds is kind of loud even on the lower volume setting.

Great Jumper
After using for a month. Delivered in less than 48 hours.

Slightly challenging to assemble. NOT hard, not heavy. When attaching the suspension (rubber, elastic? - springy, bouncy things) you must line them up to their grooves or it will seem much more difficult. I figured this out by the last one. It was late when I put it together.

The jumper is great. Easy to clean. Lots of places to hang toys. Our 4 month old took about a day or two to figure out the whole bounce concept. He is still working on rotating the seat with intention. He likes to have teething toys attached to the side to gnaw on when he takes a break from the bouncing. The keyboard is cool for me, but not very interesting to the baby at this point.

This has a LARGE footprint. It is 30" x 30". This is not a bad thing, but was a little surprising to see how wide it actually was when assembled. But it won't topple over, that's for sure.

I haven't seen any other jumpers in use in over a decade. I am impressed with this product. I highly recommend it and I would buy it again.

Perfect!
This jumper is perfect! We started using it when our baby boy was about 4 1/2 months old. He loves it! He goes nuts in it! And when he's out of energy he explores the different features. I love how you can hang things from it and you can switch what you want to hang. For that matter he loves just plying with the links that you use to hang things with...I wasn't really sure what purpose the sun had, it seemed kind of pointless, but boy was I wrong! He loves grabbing it and bending it, and most of all he loves chewing on it. Now he's 6 months old and has just discovered the "piano" part. He's completely amazed by it.

SPRINGS ARE TIGHT
I bought this from the disney website. I liked the colors and design, but it lacks toys to play with and the springs were TIGHT where my girls could not jump in it! I ended up selling it and buying the FP jumperoo. We tried stretching them out, but just didn't work very well.

Would Buy It Again In a Heart Beat!
This product was wonderful. It's very easy to move back and fourth through the house, it's not heavy at all. I love the easy take apart and the ability to slide it under your bed for storage. It also fits great in a large trunk. The toys create endless fun and play, and there's plenty of toy rings so that you can easily add and remove your own favorite baby toys. Resizing the jumper to fit your baby's height is a snap and incredibly simple, much easier than other jumpers I've seen.
And of course, our son LOVED this product. He never has an issue being in it. He loved the ability to bounce and twist around in this jumper.

Closer to the ground than fisher price
This jumper is closer to the ground than others I've looked at. My three month old is able to touch the ground with his toes on the lowest setting. He's not able to touch many of the toys as they are just out of reach. I've resolved this issue by hanging toys across the two overhead bars (using links). He does love pushing up off the ground even though he hasn't mastered jumping yet. This toy is great for any age baby who can sit up with some assistance. The seat is really wide so you may have to add extra support by wrapping a blanket around your child. It's a great alternative to "tummy time" for babies who like being in an upright position. I feel this was a great purchase that my child will be able to use for many more months!

Good supervised fun but no chance my guy will fit in it for long
The good: My 6 month old baby boy loves to rock out in here. I'm very glad I didn't get one with MORE "bells and whistles" because the stuff on this one is plenty, in fact i don't even use all the attachments at once because he gets overwhelmed. I can't imagine the overload from one of the crazy ones that costs more. This thing is plenty entertaining and it totally wears him out.

The bad: At 6 months old and only 70 percentile in height, he is (according to the instructions) already supposed to be on the highest height setting so that he's on tippytoe not flat footed. So that seems rediculous, he would outgrow on height almost immediately. Also, because he's still pretty lightweight it seems top-heavy if I put it on the highest setting AND it also seems uncomfortable because then he is "hanging" from his hips too much and not actually practicing standing -- so actually i put it on the middle setting and just sit right next to it and watch very very carefully to avoid any chance of him accidental flipping it. (He can definitely really get it rocking and rolling!)

PIECE OF CRAP...DANGEROUS...DON'T UNDERSTAND ALL THESE GREAT REVIEWS!
I bought this exersaucer just yesterday after giving the Evenflo Smart Steps to my in-laws since they watch my son during the day. He's now 6 months old. We put it together, did everything right (I'm a nervous new mom and VERY careful) and one of the legs collapsed and my son nearly got hurt. I have trust in Evenflo since I love the Smart Steps Exersaucer but not any more!!! I returned it and exchanged it for another one thinking, maybe this particular one is just defective....but this one collapsed as well!!!! Same thing, one of the legs just came loose. Again, my son was almost seriously hurt! I cannot even believe they have this on the shelves. I'll be calling Evenflo to complain and make them aware of the danger involved with this product! Please spend a little more and get a different one for the safety of your child!

Great product, easy to transport
Bought this for my 9 month old daughter to use when we travel to friend's houses or places where we don't want to hold her the whole time. This keeps my daughter amused for quite a while and allows us some time to relax. She will probably be too tall for it in a few months but for the time it can used it was worth the price. This is very easy to put together (no tools needed) and we can transport it very easily (has a convenient carrying handle and is very lightweight)

My daughter loves this exersaucer.It keeps her occupied for at least 30 min. She got it when she was 4 months and it helped her with her balance. Now that she's 6 months, she's discovered all the activities to play and learn from. I find it to be an excellent toy and learning tool for my child.

Definitely Durable!!!
When I was looking for an ExerSaucer, I read all the reviews and had a recommendation from a friend for this one. I loved the ABC theme! My son fell in love instantly and would spend forever playing in it. He loves it so much, we take it everywhere with us. On the way to our boat it accidently fell into the ocean. I yelled "Oh No"!! It has become that important to my son. We fished it out and can you believe the electronics still work! It's the super ExerSaucer!!! It's a little hard to assemble, but so worth it!

Not too happy with this
As a reference, our Son is 5 months old. He weighs 20lbs 15oz and is somewhere around 28 inches tall.

We started off with a fisher price jumperoo. Our son really loved to jump around in it but it lacked toys. One of the three springs was also faulty and so we have mailed it off to Fisher Price for a refund.

We purchased this exersaucer as a replacement for several reasons. The first being that it could be used for a longer period of time; our jumperoo was already at the 2nd setting and our son was getting close to maxing out the weight limit. After setting up the exersaucer the boy is already at the highest setting so it looks like it won't be useable for that long either. The second reason we purchased this was the extensive amount of toys. There is a ton of stuff on this thing. After setting it up it looks like there might actually be too much stuff on here. Even after you remove a few of the removable toys it is still a bit much. The objects that you can pull down on to make noise are mostly smooth plastic with no handles. Our son gets a hold of them but I don't know why they didn't make them easier to grab. This toy does not bounce, especially not like a jumperoo. The jumperoo, while it has less stuff, had a single on/off switch and volume control. It also made noise when the baby jumped, not just when he interacted with something. This is probably more amusing for younger kids who haven't quite figured out how to grab, pull, and hit things to make noise. The exersaucer is loud! Some of the toys are unsettling. I accidentally hit the car toy in the middle of the night and the disturbing laughing children was creepy.

When you add in the fact that this thing feels like it might tip over with a good bump (we have a 160lb newfoundland who is clumsy) we will be exchanging this for another jumperoo. It looks like the jumperoo might last him another 2 or 3 months where this thing won't last another growth spurt. The newer jumperoo has plenty of stuff on it and since it was the same base as our old jumperoo, we know that it will be more stable.

Entertaining but can't use hanging arch...
We bought this for our baby when he turned four months old. The toys hanging off the arch hit our baby in the back of the head when he bounced around. I assumed it was because he was young and very unsteady so I took it off. At five and six months now, it's no better. Still hitting him in the head.

My Baby loves this thing!
I have had this exersaucer for about a month now and it is a hit. I was hesitant to buy it because we have enough junky-looking plastic stuff for babies in our house already, but my four-month-old was terribly hard to satisfy and pretty much refused to ever be on her own for 5 minutes so that I could snarf a sandwich down or empty the dishwasher. She is super active, wants to stand (be held up) up all the time, and at the time, was generally discontented with her toys most of the time. I bought this in desperation hoping that she'd be happy in it when I need a break and indeed she is. She'll happily spend 15 minutes in it before getting bored and that's all I was hoping for anyway. It has very bright colors and plays a variety of music and sounds, which my daughter likes very much. She was fitting in it at four months, but she is a little tall for her age. I think it would be too large for a baby smaller than 25 inches. But it grows with a baby so she'll be able to use it for a while. Some of the toys are too high for her right now, and some of them are a little advanced for her as well (there is a fake mp3 player that plays a couple songs if you can believe it). I am only giving it four stars because it is a pain-in-the-neck to assemble (about a million parts!) and I think some of the toys on it stink. There is a random apple with a worm in it that really doesn't DO anything and is too big to chew on so I guess it's just to look at. Not fun. And there's a school bus that also isn't too cool; it makes a sound of children laughing but the button is hard for a baby to push and it doesn't move or light up. The other toys are good though some are too advanced for my baby who is now 5 and a half months. Be warned that you need LOTS of batteries for this thing (12 I think). And each time they need changing you have to detach the individual toy and unscrew two tiny screws. Overall though, we like this saucer very much. I have collapsed it and taken it with us to grandma's house before and it's not difficult to do so that's a plus. You can swap out some of the lesser-fun toys with the Evenflo "switcheroos." And most important, it keeps the baby happy!
