SmartBounce Automatic Baby Bouncer Seat with White Noise, Music, Toy Bar & 2 Plush Infant Toys, 0-6 Months Up to 20 lbs (Braden)

Is this product perfect? No. But it is the ONLY one of its kind for all we can tell. We searched far and wide for an AUTOMATIC bouncer and there was NOTHING. Even products that say in the title something like bouncer and automatic turn out to be automatic SWINGS where you can convert them into bouncers, but then you have to bounce them with your foot. This was the only bouncer we found that actually bounces on its own. Our baby, like so many, hates to be put down and has trouble falling asleep when he's not held or bounced. In this bouncer, he is actually calm and able to fall asleep. And all while I am not tethered to him and can do laundry or something. As others have noted, even on the high setting, the bouncing motion is very minimal. However, it's still enough to keep him calm and happy or asleep most of the time. Plus, you can still use your hand or foot to initially bounce a bit more vigorously and then transition to the smaller bounce as baby quiets down. I should add it's generally not recommended to let babies sleep in a bouncer, but, first off, you can still use it to get baby to fall asleep and then transition to a flat surface like a bassinet. And let's be honest: when you're in the thick of the newborn trenches trying to keep your sanity, it's not always feasible to follow all the official guidelines. We, for one, feel pretty comfortable letting him nap in this bouncer under our supervision where we can check on his breathing and such. But now that he's older he also just loves being in this thing when he's awake. He will happily bounce in it for 30 minutes or so at a time and keep himself entertained. Why the bouncer isn't perfect: it shuts itself off after 30 minutes and there's no way to change this setting. The arch with the little hanging animals is prone to falling off. That being said, now that our baby is a bit older he has totally fallen in love with the little owl and lion. He stares at them, smiles at them, and "talks" to them. The motor stopped working after only a month of use. However, Amazon gave us a full refund and we were able to order a replacement, so no big deal. The buttons on this thing are terrible and half the time you can't tell if you actually pressed them. Again, not a big deal, though, just means you have to look at the lights to confirm whether it's on or off. Final note: the music on this thing is actually pleasant. Many baby swings and such have music that is pretty annoying, but we actually enjoy the music that's programmed in here.

Best automatic bouncer ever! Big and has plenty of room for baby as they get bigger. Definitely the Cadillac of all bouncers.

Fairly easy to assemble. I like that it's battery operated so it's portable. Ingenuity products are always so much cuter than a lot of other typical baby products. I also like the cushion that comes in it. Very soft and comfortable for baby. The recline is not adjustable but that was not a deal breaker for me. My only complaint is that I wish the bounce on the automatic mechanism was a little stronger. Additionally, when you press the volume button to turn on the sound it makes a beep noise which could wake up your baby. So we didn't use it. Other than that, it fit our needs and is pretty worth it.

Wish it bounced a little more, but it’s getting the job done! I’m happy with it

We got this as a gift 5 years ago with our first. He used it so much that it broke when our second was about 6 months. I tried a different product with our third (because I hated changing the batteries constantly in the SmartBounce) but baby didn’t really like it. I’ve actually tried four other brands over the years that my kids have either hated or sort of tolerated if i got them 110% passed out asleep and transferred them in. My back was been killing me so I just bought the SmartBounce again hoping for a bit of relief and yup, still just as amazing as it was five years ago. It really is a miracle product for fussy babies. The cushion is plush and cozy and surrounds them like a hug. The bounce is soft and soothing mimicking the gentle motion of being held. The toys are soft and muted colors so they aren’t too stimulating and easy for baby to “zone out” watching the movement as they doze off. The only con is the batteries. They run out fast and are a pain to change. I strongly prefer products with an AC adapter so that’s the only thing I’d change. This may be my new go-to registry gift for any new parent.

So just to start this off, no, it doesn't bounce hard like a manual bouncer controlled by the baby would. It's a really gentle bobbing up and down motion. My baby boy really likes it! He loves the music and the night creatures sounds. It is very cozy and soft, very plush and easy to disassemble for washing. I love the toy bar, but wish ingenuity would get it together and realize the toys don't do much good if they're not facing the baby. Why would the adult care to look at them?? Start sewing them in so they face baby! Our swing is the same way and I hate that part.

My husband picked out this bouncer, as the only thing that calms our baby is when she’s bouncing. She hated the baby swing, and I was desperate to find something that would work for her when I needed to put her down for a few minutes. It was super easy to put together; I was able to do it myself rather quickly (even though I’m not very handy). Most importantly, our baby LOVES it! Couple quick notes... it does have two bounce rates. You’d expect #1 to be slower than #2, but it’s the other way around. Also, the hanging stuffed animals are backwards to baby. I also wish we could remove the animals to wash them or attach additional toys she could grab and teethe on, but it’s not designed for that kind of customization. I still left it at 5 stars, as it does fulfill the most important need which prompted us to buy it, which is keeping baby happy when I need to put her down for a bit:)

I had one purchased from the registry and it worked for about 2 weeks. It stopped ‘bouncing’ but the music still worked. I tried changing the batteries and that didnt do anything. I kinda liked it and i figured I should give the bouncer another chance so i ordered one from amazon. This one arrived defective and as it didnt even work at all from the box. I would not get it and definitely wont be purchasing again.

We use this chair daily with my son and he loves it! Easy to pop him in and out of it. Very cozy and soft!
