Evenflo ExerSaucer Zoo Friends Bouncing Activity Saucer

After reading many reviews, I decided to chance it and purchase the ZOO. I'm not sure what styles some of these reviews are based on because they don't seem to apply to this item. The toys are very safe and secure, with no strings to wrap around necks, and no crevices to pinch tiny fingers. There is no extra padding on the seating area, but most other seats like this don't offer that and it hasn't been a problem. My 7 1/2 month old bounces just fine in this and doesn't get sore. She loves the fun activities - and so do I! This zoo has one I haven't seen before: a lion face that slides in and out. It was the first thing she wanted to play with and kept her occupied for over ten minutes. I am not using the overhead bar because the toy safety guidelines clearly state that if your baby can push up on hands and knees, this needs to be removed. My daughter was 29" at her 6 month checkup and I was concerned that she wouldn't be able to use this toy, since the maximum height is 30" or feet flat on the ground, but even though she is very tall, her feet are still on tiptoe so I am pleased she can enjoy this toy for a while. The only part I think is strange and would choose to do without, is the rocking feature of the base. It kind of tilts every way and maybe this is to absorb impact for heavy jumpers, but the little legs that fold out to refrain this feature don't work too well...but it's not a huge issue. It does't rock THAT much... This was very straightforward and easy to assemble. There is a handle on the base for picking it up to move it across the room, but I often just grab a toy - they're secure enough to lift the lightweight frame. My daughter spins easily in this and the seat is roomy while still being supportive. There is plenty of room in the leg holes too. I am happy I purchased this, especially for the price.

I saw this while browsing amazon and thought it was super cute for my son. Normally I don't put things together, I wait for my husband, but decided to give this a try.The instructions were very easy to follow and the bouncer was super easy to put together. The only thing that confused me was it mentioned batteries but didn't clarify where they go or what they are used for since nothing on the bouncer seems to make noise or light up. Perhaps it's for some sort of extension and I didn't read clearly.The unit seems very safe and secure. The toys are very cute and keep him very entertained and he absolutely loves it! I'm very happy with this purchase!!DescriptionThe Evenflo ExerSaucer Zoo Friends offers parents a safe alternative to walkers.

I work in a daycare and we have one other Exersaucer that is old with missing toys, so we needed a new one. I saw the Zoo Friends Exersaucer and bought it for the cheap price. It arrived quickly and was fairly easy to assemble. No tools or batteries needed for this model.It's fantastic in my opinion! The seat cover is made of plastic but has a second layer of cloth under to make it strong. It's held by several clips on the seat and very durable. The entire thing is made up mostly of durable, thick plastic. There were no sharp edges or pieces that could hurt baby. As long as you follow the directions, trust that your baby is safe.The colors are very bright and friendly for baby. Be aware that the toys on this model are simple and are not electronic or need batteries. They do not sing or light up, so go for another model if that's what you want. I, however, love the simple toys. They're fun and entertaining without all the noise. The toys are rattles and teething toys you attach wherever you like on the tray, and you can always move them around, along with the large bar with monkeys. You can remove it if you don't want it.The height adjustments are very helpful. All of our little babies are between 9 and 10 months old, and the second peg works fine for all of them. It also has the red stabilizers on the bottom to keep it still. Babies are able to jump easily with or without the stabilizers and it's a very good entertainer for what you pay for it.I would definitely recommend this.

Perfect. Fun colors and activities.

It's a basic version that's surprisingly really awesome. You can't beat the price. The set up took about 25 minutes with the help of my toddler. My 4 month old likes it for about 10 minutes. I had to prop him with a blanket so he's more stable in the seat as he cannot sit up on his own yet. But oh does he LOVE all the toys to grab and pull at, and he's upright so he can see what's going on without me carrying him or laying on his back. The seat swivels around, the unit has stability legs which is great for younger ones and the toys are perfect.Basic jumper, great price. This is my second child so didn't want to spend much because I know how quick they grow out of things.Just make sure the legs are snapped in properly.Update: I had to remove the overhead monkey attachment because my son would turn and it would be right in his face or hitting him in the head. It shouldnt be so close so I just removed the entire attachment.
