Many bouncers have no toy bar, leaving your baby to try to entertain themselves (or look to you for guidance) while they bounce. Product weight: 1.3 pounds | Maximum weight: 20 pounds | Vibration: Yes | Rocking: Self-bouncing It’s easy to adjust and a nice spot for baby to hang with the family instead of on the play mat or in the swing.” “It doesn’t have many bells and whistles, but that’s what I loved about it: the simplicity. “It’s an ideal hangout seat for baby,” says Rose Gordon Sala, the baby and kids gear editor at Forbes Vetted. What we love: This neutral seat blends seamlessly into any décor and yet it’s also practical with multiple seat positions and a washable cover. The BabyBjörn Bouncer Balance toy bar is purchased separately.

Overall, the seat is a good option for parents who want someplace for baby to hang out that won’t mess with their design aesthetic. The three-point harness is adjustable without adding extra straps. The chair features a soft fabric seat that’s easily removable and tossed in the wash. It features three different recline positions, along with a transport mode that lays flat, so you can store it out of the way or until the next baby comes along. The BabyBjörn Bouncer Balance is admittedly a splurge, but plenty of parents swear by it. Product weight: 5 pounds | Maximum weight: 29 pounds | Vibration: No | Rocking: Self-bouncing Personally, I love the Jumperoo for distracting baby long enough for me to cook dinner. It’s like an extra awesome activity table babies can make it jump, exercising their legs, blowing off some baby steam and entertaining themselves for precious minutes. What we love: The Jumperoo is a classic for good reason.

The springs are swathed in soft covers for safety, and the seat pads are removable for machine washing. The seat also has three heights, so you can adjust things as baby grows. She’ll enjoy lights, music and sounds that happen when she jumps. This bouncer has a rotating seat with 360-degree activities, so your baby can spin herself around while playing. Product weight: 21 pounds | Maximum weight: 25 pounds| Vibration: No | Rocking: Self-jumping/swayingĪctive, older babies often like to jump, getting those legs ready for standing and walking-and the beloved Jumperoo is ready for action. What we love: Instead of purchasing both a swing and a bouncer seat, you could potentially just nab this swing and bouncer combo to save costs, plus it’s a comfortable seat loaded with features. Your baby can kick back with 10 different songs and five soothing sounds for those fussy moments. There are even two vibration speeds to choose from for a little massage baby can enjoy while gazing at the overhead mobile. Your baby will enjoy six swinging speeds and a reclined seat with head support for ultimate comfort. Simply remove the swing seat from its frame by squeezing the safety lock and place it on the floor for bouncing or portability. Want a bouncer with versatility? The Graco DuetConnect serves as a bouncer and swing, allowing you to get a lot of out one contraption. Product weight: 26 pounds | Maximum weight: 30 pounds for swing 18 pounds for bouncer | Vibration: Yes | Rocking: Swinging or self-bouncing

What we love: This colorful bouncer comes with all the basics, including vibrations and a toy bar, along with fun designs for kids, all at a reasonable price. It lacks padding and the recline might be too steep for the youngest babies, so certainly wait to place them in this bouncer until they have excellent head and neck control. There’s also a huge selection of kid-friendly themes to choose from, including adorable flamingos, rainforest animals and pinwheels. The bouncer is swathed in a soft cover that’s removable and machine washable. Your baby can enjoy three spinning toys that hang on the removable toy bar, along with vibrations for a nice massage when she’s feeling fussy (you control the vibrations with an on-off switch). This baby bouncer has many entertainment avenues, and yet, it’s only $40. Product weight: 3.5 pounds | Maximum weight: 20 pounds | Vibration: Yes | Rocking: Self-bouncing
