My son didn't like to be sat in the jumbo as he felt stuck, his legs had to be pushed into it and when the table was on it seemed very tight, my son is only 25th percentile in weight so his size wasn't an issue. I just found it very tight and not worth the $60.
Tried it with baby number one - didn't last long before we sold it to get something else. My son didn't like sitting in it so we never tried again with other kids - there are so many other ways to support your child in sitting. The child seems squished and hunched over. It is very easy to clean and light/small enough to transport.
It is extremely over-priced. My kid used in prob 2-3 times - she hated it & she looked extremely uncomfortable in it. Glad I got it in my baby shower, so I didn't feel like I wasted money on it.
I bought it when it was on sale. Still very pricey (well, at least to me). But for my first kid, she sat only for about 2 months and never willing to sit on it again. Then for my second kid, whenever I tried to get him to sit on it, he only sit for 15 second and he struggled to get out. Since he had enough strength to hold and manage to get up himself, he refused to sit in it. I would not recommend people think of their need before they buy it
Bought one of these bc of all the hype about how they were the wonder product for babies. We've used it maybe 3 times bc its such an ordeal and takes two people to get my 4 month old daughter in and out of it. She has chubby legs and while she's comfortable once she's in it we have to bend the plastic and pry her out. Not a fan after paying $50 for it at Wal-Mart.
Worked well for 2 of my kids but only for a very short period. Children tended to want to be mobile in the seat, which is uncomfortable for them and requires constant supervision. Sitting the child on the floor with a brestfeeding pillow behind them ended up being a far more effective, and cheaper, way of doing business. Great resale value though!
Fairly good. We could only get about 2 months use out of the chair, our little one grew out of it too quickly, he wanted to start crawling. We got the chair as a gift with our first child and Mabey got 4 months use between two children,
If your little one is a chunky monkey the bumbo may not be comfortable for them. Its a tight fit and they can pop out of it. Its great to help them learn to sit up but be careful when using it.
It is expensive if you think about the fact that your baby will use it for about 2 months only. My son can escape from his bumbo since he's 5 months!!!!!! I got this as a gift and I was happy to use it for 2 months but I would never have paid for it (especially now that I know it's only good for 2-3 months)
