My baby will quite happily sit in this for a short while and watch me wash dishes or whatever. Another way to help free up my hands.
We found the padded insert invaluable for our low birthweight baby during his first 3 months.
Although the chair is described as a bouncer, I didn't think it had much of a 'bounce'which didn't bother me in the slightest as the main thing I was after was a comfortable, sturdy chair.
The bouncer comes in a range of colourful designs.
