Bumbo Baby Sitter

I am quite sad and a bit peeved because I spent £28 on a Bumbo primarily because I thought by the claims on the box that my daughter (aged 6 months) would not be able to get out!! Silly me, after a few frights and bumps I will only put her in it if I am sat right next to her and can stop her from falling.
I have emailed the company and have not had a reply. Just wanted to warn other parents that it is not as safe as you might think

nutball, Can you take it back? I did with mine.
My son could get out of his at 5 months so I took it back and got a refund stating that it didn't do what it said on the box.

My ds hated his, cried and cried everytime I sat him in it. I also lost the receipt so couldn't take it back to the shop, I ended up selling it at a car boot sale for £5.00

My ds3 was 14 weeks when he climbed out of his.........I'd had it about 2 weeks.
Sold it on here.

Mine loved his but it did have a relatively short window - if you kept the box you could get £20 minimum on ebay...
