I bought this after coming up empty handed looking for the Fisher-Price Brentwood Rocker. The biggest plus about this bouncer is how easily it does bounce with babys natural movements. My 10lb. baby can get it moving easily just waving her arms. The drawback is that the photos on the Fisher Price website lead one to believe that it has a deep, reclined seat. In fact, the entire backside is taken up by the huge battery box that provides the thumping (vibrating) heartbeat simulation.

TRIPPING HAZARD-all Fisher-Price bouncers I've seen,

You'll notice in the product photo that the legs of Fisher-Price's bouncers are thin, and wider than the seat itself. My husband and I, AND our two-year-old trip over ours CONSTANTLY. You'll see the seat and think you've avoided it, and then you'll catch a foot or a toe on one of the legs. Today I tripped over ours and nearly fell to the ground with my 4-month-old in my arms---any benefit you'll get from a bouncer with these dimensions are NOT worth the constant tripping hazard!
