Fisher-Price Rainforest Infant to Toddler Rocker
Finding the right baby bouncer chair can be a difficult task with so many out there to choose from.
Isaac is on his third (and hopefully final) one and he has yet to turn 4 months old! His first one had a very nice toy bar but it was too low and the dip in the seat was too shallow so he grew out of it fast. His second chair had the right height for the toy bar and depth in the seat but unfortunately the straps just weren't strong enough to hold him up and they ended up cutting into his sides as his weight dragged them down.
By now we were pretty fed up of spending money on baby bouncer that just weren't ticking all the boxes. We took our time looking around for his new chair and can honestly say we're pretty impressed with the Fisher-Price Rainforest Infant to Toddler Rocker so far. Designed to last from birth to the toddler years this baby bouncer is definitely what we were looking for and here is my review.
This is a portable rocker that grows with baby, changing from a rocker to an infant seat as your child grows and develops.
The design on the well padded seat covering is Fisher-Prices signature Rainforest Friends motif which is bright and colourful. Removing it to clean is easy as it is attached with buckle clips and is both washer machine and dryer safe which is definitely a bonus! The well of chair gives baby comfort and security which is great for sleepy time.
The rocker also has a matching over-head toy bar which features a super cute baby lion and toy block and can be removed simply by unclipping it from the side of the frame. The lion is currently Isaacs favourite and you will often him shouting away as he's holding on to it.
This chair features a switch to turn on or off calming vibrations to help lull baby to sleep. This requires one D battery.
You can easily change from a rocker to a stationary seat by using the fold-out kickstands on the back of the base of the frame.
The seat also features a reclining backrest which can be adjusted at the back using the buckle clip.
The 3-position reclining frame can be adjusted by pressing the big green buttons which are featured on either side of the legs at front. This is fairly easy to do with both hands by using your palms. If you find it slightly difficult to do I would recommend changing a setting at a time, one side at a time until you get used to it. Isaac currently has it set to setting 2 as he prefers to be sat up so he can watch his brother play around him ;)
To add to it portability and for easy storage the rocker folds down flat too!
I hope you have enjoyed my review. If you have any questions or have one of these yourself I would love to hear about your experiences and thoughts. Thank you for reading :)
