Summer Infant Mother's Touch Remote Control Bouncer

I just got this for my 2 month old. He gets very fussy and does not want to sleep. We noticed he would calm when bounced him. Though quite the workout for the arms, it got very tiring. We bought this seat and the actual bouncing action puts him to sleep within minutes. LOVE IT!!!

You couldn't pay me to use another bouncer...unless it had a self-bouncing feature as good or better than this one. In fact, we have an older style that we've just about worn out the auto-bounce on, and we're getting ready to buy another one.

We use the Happiest Baby on the Block method of calming our babies (swaddle, swing, shush, suck, and side-lying), so we do a lot of bouncing and swinging. With the older two, we just had a manual bouncer. First off, they all say that the baby's own movements are supposed to activate the bouncing motion, etc. Definitely didn't work that way for us. It just seemed to make them more upset. So *we* had to do the bouncing, which could get very tiring, plus, for those times when they needed constant bouncing for longer periods of time, we had to be in direct contact with the bouncer at all times. By the time #3 came along, the manual bouncer had become more of a hindrance than a help. But then I ran across this one. More than a life...Read more

My wife purchased this item and when I came home, she told me it was bent and was hard to fit together. I looked at it and had to take it to the woodshop to whoop it into shape with a hammer and anvil. I'm not kidding. I also had to bend the base on both sides and reassemble, which shouldn't need to be done if it was a new, quality product. This isn't.
