5.0 out of 5 stars A really unique piece - everyone loves it!, June 2, 2007

This review is from: HABA Sunshine Mobile (Toy)

So, most importantly, our baby girl absolutely LOVES this thing. We hung it over her changing pad when she was about 5 weeks old, and over the last 2-3 months, this mobile has more than paid for itself in hours of "flower buddies" fun for her.

The best things about this mobile:
- Bright, pretty colors which attract a baby's attention
- Three of the flowers have little faces on them - so when the baby looks up at the flowers, the faces smile down on her. It's just adorable.
- Finally - it's made by HABA, and I have yet to be disappointed with anything I've gotten from them!

The only thing that it could use is a stronger ring from which to hang the flowers - the one inside seems to bow a bit, but this is a minor thing and doesn't merit removing a star.

Another great feature is the uniqueness I mentioned above - we have gotten more compliments on this mobile. It's pretty "old-school" - i.e., no motorized parts, no music, no lights, and no arm to hang it from the side of a crib - in essence, you get what you see in the picture. And thank goodness - this mobile has bought us months of happy baby time! We've got it suspended from a little hook in the ceiling, and wouldn't have it any other way.

I really like all the product from Haba, especially this mobile. They are made in Germany of high quality materials, and have a sweetness and charm that a lot of US products lack. I love the colors too.

The only thing about this mobile that was a little unexpected was that it doesn't come with an arm to hang from the edge of the crib. Instead, we hung it from the ceiling on some elastic. Worked great.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best mobile I've found!, August 23, 2008

This review is from: HABA Sunshine Mobile (Toy)

We bought this mobile for my daughter before she was born and it is still one of her favorite things at 11 months. She likes to hold conversations with her "flower friends"

The best things about this mobile are:
1.) The faces of the flowers point toward the baby! (Why do most mobiles have the faces pointed at the adults anyway. It's not meant to be your toy!)
2.) The mobile is colorful to stimulate the baby's senses, but not over stimulating.
3.) It can be spun around by the parents
4.) It's by HABA and you can find all sorts of cute toys and decor to match

Things to keep in mind are:
1.) It has to be hung from the ceiling instead of having an arm attaching it to the crib. I really like this because it meant that I didn't have to discard her mobile when she was old enough to sit up and stand up in her crib.
2.) It is not mechanical and doesn't play music or spin itself. I count this as a plus since a lot of that music is canned and awful. My daughter disliked the synthesized music played by her bouncy chair and various toys anyway!

One of the other reviewers said that the ring had warped with the weight, but ours is still straight. The ring feels like it is not very thick, though, so I can see how this might be an issue. My daughter has had a lot of fun with her mobile, and it was worth every penny!
