Recommendation for a jumper

Michelle - posted on 09/07/2010 ( 10 moms have responded )

My little guy is 3 months and is starting to get bored with his bouncer. We tried him out in a Baby Einstein jumper at babies r us the other day and he really seemed to like it. I have been searching the internet in order to get a better price and came across the Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo. Babies r us has this jumper for $129 but I found it on Amazon for $76 and the Baby Einstein Musical Motion Activity Jumper is $89 at babies r us and $85 at Amazon. I'm thinking the Fisher Price may be the better value, but I haven't taken a look at it in the store yet - only online. So I just wanted to see if any of you ladies could give me some feedback on this. I would appreciate it! Thanks.

my son has the fisher price rainforest jumperoo & absolutly loves it; i dont know if you have any baby or kid consignment shops around your area but thats also a great place to get these things without paying full price.. i got mine for $25.

FP Rainforest Jumperoo for us too, we started using it when dear daughter was 15 weeks and she loves it, plus there is so much more for her to discover as she gets older!

Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo, Hands down!! Our daughter LOVES it, and can do so many things. We got ours off of Craigs List, and added it to our collection of FP Rainforest Gear!

My daughter has the fisher price rainforest jumperoo and she loves it! She has been in it for about 3 weeks or a little longer actually. (She was able to sit supported pretty early and has great control over her head). I have heard bad reviews about the Baby Einstein jumper. We use a pillow under it for her because she is a little too short to reach the floor just yet.

We got a hand-me-down jumper from my sister's little guy. It is the Johnny Jump Up. Simple. Doesn't have music. Doesn't have toys hanging from it. Doesn't have a tray or anything. Our little guy LOVES it! It could keep him entertained for hours if we let it! Probably the best "toy" yet!

I went with the Fisher Price Jumperoo because I found it at the thrift store for really cheap and it's in great shape. Wal-Mart, Target, K-mart or any store like those has it for $75 or $80. He loves it, the Baby Einstein ones look pretty cool though.

My niece had that fisher price one and she LOVED it, it has so many activities and she'd be amused for HOURS. I got the Fisher Price Khaki Sands one for my son, it's a bit cheaper he loves it, although he hasn't figured out how to jump it yet lol (he's 3 1/2 months and we just bought it about 2 days ago!) whichever one you decide to get i'd definitely recommended getting those puzzle piece play mats and stacking it under him because my son can't reach the floor!

We got our baby girl the Baby Einstien musical jumper from target and she really loves it! I like that you can add and change the toys on it.

I don't know about the quality of the Baby Einstein one but the FP Rain forest Jumperoo is great! My sister got it for her son 3 years ago and now we are using it for my daughter.
