Jumperoo - are they worth it?

[CARNAT22]

We didn't have the space with James so never bothered but am wondering if Bee would like one.

She currently sits in her Bumbo or in her bouncy chair and we also have a high chair so does she actually "need" a Jumperoo too?

Am interested to hear people's opinions.

Thanks

My little girl LOVED it, gave her more freedom than sitting in a chair bouncer or on a play mat. It was the only thing that kept her occupied for more than 5 mins, this meant I could actually get things done! Xx

Oliver loved his and would spend hours innit if you would let him. I did buy my second hand but would happily of paid the full price as it was loved. But lol there's always a but. He did spend to long in it I think as he wouldn't put his feet flat on the floor and wanted to bounce everywhere and in everything. We got rid about 2 months ago and now he is walking fine. Did take about 2 weeks for the tiptoes and bouncing to stop. Id still buy one if we have another but limit the use. Xxx

My eldest loved it and never really grew out of loving it but she did weight wise. My youngest not so much of a fan so I think it's so dependent on the baby.xxx

Keep an eye on Amazon they lower the price now and again x

 

[Lucyboo]

It's about £60 odd on amazon today if you decided to get one x

So glad you've asked this as I'm thinking of getting Alfie one or a bumbo. Hes bored of sitting in his bouncer and gets bored of his play mat too. He likes to be more upright and I think this would help his flat head too as he wont be putting pressure on it. They are £67.99 in boots. Just remembered Alfie got a £25 gift voucher for boots when he was born, do I get one?!

Defo a must! I would buy a second hand one if you don't mind tho. Ours lasted maybe 4 months or so but I know others who got longer out of it and you can get on doing stuff while lo is in it x

I'd definitely get one. I had a bumbo too but the jumperoo kept my second little one entertained for ages. I'd also recommend watching out on facebay sites as second hand ones are quite cheap x

Another yes-vote.

DS went mental over his for a good few months xx

Toy of the Gods - couldn't have imagined life without it. Deffo in my top 5 baby buys!!

Another post in support of the jumperoo - amazing. I went for the paying full price option with the intention of selling on eBay when we've finished having children!! xx

 

[Toria111]

Yes, they are great. And when you're done, they sell really easily.

 

[lisastevo]

Yes! Yes! & Yes! Best baby buy.....I'm actually having sleepless nights about what I'm going to do when he grows out of it!!!

 

[candymycandy]

My lo likes his, I don't put him in it loads in case the novelty wears off!

Apparently kiddiecare have something similar for much cheaper

My lo loved his, people sell them on gumtree for about 40 quid. We were given one as a gift and I've since given it away but if I ever had another baby I'd get one second hand xx

 

[CARNAT22]

I have some money for Bee so I think I'll invest.

Thanks ladies

Best thing ever between about 4 and 8 months. Def buy second hand and then sell on after - there's a really good second hand market for them on local mums FB pages etc

 

[Dodsy83]

Only ever heard wonderful things about these... My best friend said it was the best 70 quid she ever spent. I just got one off eBay for £36.
There's lots on there and they're nearly all all in good nick, I think because the babies grow out of them, so I think second hand is the way forward x
