Hi all
So I was planning on buying one of these second hand but then COVID-19 happened.
I cannot decide between the two. I’ve heard good and bad things about both.
It may help if I tell you what we would like it for. We would like the idea of the battery / mains operated swing aspect because it doesn’t require us to do this manually and hope it will soothe baby to nap or just chill out a bit whilst we eat etc.
However like the idea of it turning into a rocker so we can have baby with us around the house eg when we shower or are in the kitchen cooking etc.
A bonus of the fisher price one is definitely the longevity of the product itself compared to the Joie which only lasts until baby is 9kg (read some places that can be as early as 6 months old!) however I believe it doesn’t have a handle to transport it around the house - the toy bar isn’t a handle and I don’t fancy carrying it around under my arm with baby in the other!
Would love to hear your experiences of using either of these.
I also was contemplating buying a more simplified bouncer for the early newborn stage and then buying the fisher price one as I heard it’s better for when they are a little older eg 3 months.
Such a shame we can’t go and look at these anymore! :-(
Many thanks in advance!
