It's his favorite place to be..., April 10, 2006
This review is from: Evenflo ExerSaucer Ultra 2in1 - Tropical (Baby Product)
We bought this exersaucer for our son when he was 2 1/2 months old...he used the playmat first, both on his back and for tummy time. He liked that quite a bit! We put the whole saucer together when he was 3 1/2 months old (he had good upper body and head control) and he just loved it! Now he is almost 5 months and he can turn himself to play with different toys and just really gets a kick out of it.
We also like the fact that it folds up for easy portability...and it is very easy to fold and unfold.
Edited to add: Another reviewer posted to say that the paint chips and that Evenflo had not responded to their inquiry about it...we had the same problem, and I also e-mailed Evenflo, getting a very prompt response in which they stated that the paint is non-toxic. It only happened on a couple of spots on ours...I just kept an eye on him after noticing the chips.
Also, I e-mailed the company about the statement in the instructions about "once they can stand flat-footed, they should not use product". They said it is because the baby could tip or climb out of it, because the center of gravity would be off at that point. However, our son loved it so much (and can still enjoy it from time to time when we need to "trap" him while we eat or whatever! :) ) that even though he quickly "technically" outgrew it, he still used it. We just keep a close eye on him while he is in it, and honestly he doesn't look like he is unsafe. (Yet, anyway!)
I still highly recommend this product! :)

ExerSaucer Ultra 2 in 1 - Tropical, April 15, 2006
This review is from: Evenflo ExerSaucer Ultra 2in1 - Tropical (Baby Product)
We choose this exersaucer over the other choices that were available because we liked the soft mat feature more than exersaucers that have hard surfaces on the bottom. We also liked the variety of toys and sounds on this exersaucer. Our son is six months old now and he has been using this exersaucer just about every day for the past two months. He absolutely LOVES it, and so do we! His favorite toy is the spinner, but he enjoys rotating around and playing with the other toys as well. It has been worth its weight in gold! I especially like the fact that I can easily pick up this exersaucer by the handle and carry it from room to room.... sometimes even while carrying my son in my other arm! We are very happy with this exersaucer and would highly recommend it to others who are looking for a similar item for their baby.

I have a MUST READ about this product, May 2, 2006
This review is from: Evenflo ExerSaucer Ultra 2in1 - Tropical (Baby Product)
My son (now 4 months) did not love the play mat. We put him on his back and he was unable to reach the toys. We decided to purchase another mat and use this as an exersaucer only. We put him in at 3 1/2 months (he has good head and neck control) He loved it. There was a lot to play with. I thought it was great. Then after only playing with it for two weeks, I noticed the PAINT WAS CHIPPING on the beach ball. I don't believe he ingested any of it, but I dont know what would happen if he did. I have written to evenflo and have not received a responce. MUST READ BEFORE YOU BUY
