4 out of 5 stars Great baby entertainer   July 14, 2010

I received the Baby Einstein discovery center (we call it a saucer) as a gift for my daughter when she was 6 months old. She loved it from the start! At first she just wanted to get all the toys into her mouth and I did have to remove the purple medallions with animal photos because the paper photos were peeling off. Now at 7.5 months, my baby loves to dance to the music from the piano toy. I've heard the three tunes many, many times over the past month and they still don't grate on my nerves. Some reviews have mentioned that the toys fall off, but I haven't seen any pop out of their sockets. As for tipping over, I haven't seen the saucer come anywhere close to falling over. However, when my daughter became tall enough to push hard against the bottom (she would try to lunge and jump) we raised the seat so she could only touch the bottom with her toes. This is what the directions say to do, but I could see how a strong baby could lunge hard enough to topple the whole thing over if the saucer was set too short. (My tall 7.5 month old is already at the highest setting so we'll probably have to retire this toy in another month or so.) Also, I have always used the stabilizers so it doesn't rock. Regarding the stabilizers, we noticed a defect in the way the plastic was molded so that one of the stabilizer feet didn't fit correctly into the slot on the bottom of the saucer. The original saucer we received as a gift via Walmart online had this problem so we exchanged it for an identical item at a local store. The new one had the same problem! We tinkered with it for a while then just jammed the plastic foot into the slot as best we could. The defect doesn't affect the toys or anything the baby can get a hold of, so we figured as long as the saucer remained stable it would be okay. We haven't had any problems with it.

I like this exersaucer. It has a lot of stuff on it which my baby enjoys and I like that it has 3 levels of height. The only con is that it does not collapse easy. You can take it apart but the pieces are hard to if not impossible to take out.

This is a very colorful and seemingly fun exersaucer at first glance. However the toys CONSTANTLY fall off and leave my 5 month old very frustrated. I went back to the store and examined the floor model and it seemed very sturdy and well made......I just wonder how I wound up with a model that is so poorly made!!! I paid around $70 for this and I'm going to try to take it back. It seriously is a PIECE OF JUNK!!!!


5 out of 5 stars great toy!   June 3, 2010

This is a great toy for when you need to get something done (like laundry, dishes, vacumming, etc.) but don't have hands to hold the baby, or you don't want her on the floor. It's also a good learning experience; my 5 month old daughter seems so deep in concentration when playing with the attached toys. There's a good variety of skills needed for the different toys, and the "piano" is a huge hit! My daughter gets so excited when she pushes the buttons and makes a song start!

I'm also happy that the seat is machine washable and can go in the dryer. Only thing I wish I'd realized is that the seat doesn't bounce...just spins so the baby can face all the different toys. Still, she doesn't seem to care that her seat isn't bouncing; she's happy enough with the toys.

I recommend this product!

My 5 1/2 month old daughter absolutely loves this toy. She is extremely active and this is just about the only thing that keeps her attention for longer than 15 minutes! The moment I put her in it for the first time, she started banging on the piano and singing! She figured it out really fast aswell, she'll play with the 2 toys in front of her for 5 minutes or so, then turn around to something else when she starts to get bored. Her favorites are the piano, the giraffe, and the pandas. I do wish the lion puppet with the drum actually made sound, because my daughter loves to hit drums. I'll sit her on my lap with a djembe or darbuka and she'll bang away- and she can keep time! Very musical little one. Some parents expressed concerns about how easily it can tip- I see this potential, and that is why I play WITH her as opposed to using it as a baby sitter. I sit right next to it and interact with her, applauding her music and putting my hand in the puppet and such. If I do go even a few steps away from her, I put pillows all around the base just in case, but I would never leave her unattended in this or any toy. Some babies might not have a problem with this, but she is a big girl and doesn't hold still- she is constantly bouncing and dancing, and she's 28in tall and 18lbs.
