Cheap bouncer recommendations

10 replies

Looking for a relatively cheap bouncer for my baby who's due next month. Ideally don't want to pay more than £50. Any recommendations would be great.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Hi, we have a Baybylo gravity bouncer from Amazon, bang on £50 at the moment. Was choosing between this and Red Kite Baya - at that point Babylo was a tad cheaper, so went with it. No complaints and does exactly what it’s meant to, folds flat for easy storage too.
Best wishes for your new arrival, hope all goes smooth!

@LeopardCat thank you! Love the fact it folds up as well! Will definitely get that one.

Hello,
@Lizbiz89
@LeopardCat
could either of you kindly tell me if the cover is removable/ washable on the babylo bouncer? I cannot find this information online anywhere
thank you!

Hi Loulou, I don’t think it is, sorry. Though it really does not get dirty or stained, and I’m a fan of washing everything in sight. Babies also grow out of it in a blink of an eye - we only used it for a couple of months and it still looks as brand new, no stains or anything x

Loulou2202 · 30/12/2023 21:45

Thank you so much for the quick reply!

I would probably just run a damp cloth over it if I was getting new but I was offered one second hand so would have liked to have washed it in the machine for that reason but not to worry 😊xx

I have the Babylo and have always been able to just clean it with a damp cloth. It has been a great bouncer for both of my children, definitely worth getting.

We had the red kite cozy bounce which was about £26 from Asda. It’s basic but DC loved it and was very comfortable in it, could also make it bounce themself when a little bigger unlike with a friend’s much more expensive bouncer. Cover is removable and machine washable which was a godsend because several nappy explosions occurred in said bouncer and we’d have had to chuck it otherwise!

You could also look at getting a second hand one on Marketplace. We used our Baby Bjorn one every day for 9 months so it was a good investment even new.

A washable cover is definitely useful - there was a point where DD would only poop in the bouncer and it was always explosive.

Fisherprice are having a sale, might be worth a look on there

Iwishiwasasilentnight · 31/12/2023 09:05

I got this one from a pass it on site as a spare for upstairs and my newborn loved it while she hated the very expensive baby bjorn bouncer.

Definitely look at pass it on site or local facebook baby and family selling pages.
