I've just bought one of these door hanging bouncy thingies from a second hand shop. Anyone got any idea from what age it's suitable to use?

I had a Lindam one and started using it at just over 3 months (I'm sure that was in line with the instructions). They need to have developed enough head control to keep their head upright - ds was fine by this stage and really enjoyed it. In fact once he could sit unaided (just before 6 months) we stopped using it.
Its recommended they don't use it for longer than 20 mins at a time.

I think on mine it said five months but I started at about 4 months.

I agree with Elliott it depends on head contrl, DS is very strong so I put him in at 3months. I only let him stay in for 10mins max.

Thank you all. He's four and a half months and has very good head control so I'll give him a short go today. Hope he likes it!
