As a mom of twins, I've struggled with handling two active babies at once, at home and on the go. This activity seat has been a real lifesaver - I no longer have to hire someone to help me! I now keep two in the car and two at home. It goes where bouncy chairs and exersaucers cannot.
GREAT FOR SMALL SPACES - I've found tons of uses for this seat - at home, it keeps my babies safe in the foyer and within view while I take things to and from the car. It keeps them busy and happy in the bathroom while I get ready or while bathe the other twin. In the dining room, it keeps them entertained while we eat. When not in use, I just close the seats and tuck them into a corner.
GOES ANYWHERE - The seat weighs just seven lbs and comes in its own carry tote with shoulder strap and storage pocket. Closed, it measures 30" x 6" x 6". The attached floor pad keeps their feet from touching any dirty surfaces. Two of these should fit easily in a 32" duffle for travel (if it can be carried on a plane as the picture on the box shows it would be great for layovers - I haven't tried this). A great one: High Sierra 32" Drop Bottom Wheeled Duffle
EASY TO SET UP - It's a cinch to use - no assembly required, it pops open in less that 15 seconds. Open, it locks into position into a sturdy seat with an ample top - 24" x 24" - just make sure the push pin in the bottom front left leg is out so the seat is locked.
AN EXTRA PAIR OF HANDS - On the go, it fits easily in the trunk of your car and can be used in a pinch when the parking spaces between cars is too narrow for a double stroller (so I don't leave one baby alone in front of or behind the car in a stroller while I put the other one in the car seat - I put one in the GoPod next to me). It's also great for doctor's offices. And my favorite, for getting one or two babies and a stroller safely up and down stairs (put one baby at the bottom in a GoPod, the other one at the top, bring the stroller down empty).
VERSATILE - Five loops on top can be used for hooking toys (not included) - just make sure they have plastic loops (not strings) - any toy from an activity mat or from the brand Lamaze works well. my babies love the Lamaze Freddie the Firefly, Colors May Vary
AGE & WEIGHT - The recommended weight capacity for the seat is 12-26 lbs, for ages 4 months+ (can hold head up to walking age). I'm not so sure about that. I use it for my 7 month-old twins who can sit almost unsupported and they barely reach the floor in the lowest setting. The top of the seat comes up to their armpits.
For my 27" 18 lb daughter, who can't reach the floor, I found that putting a rolled up hand towel or blanket in front of her keeps her from wobbling around in the seat. For my 28" son, who can reach in tip toes, the towel in back seemed to work better. The disadvantage is that they tend to want to lie back if they're not able to stand - again, a rolled up towel behind their head helped (bit not ideal). For an average size baby (50% for weight), this seat should be usable up to 18 months.
SEAT - The seat diameter is 10 .5 inches and about 10 inches deep. The leg holes are toward the front so your baby sits in it (doesn't hang from the crotch). However, the fabric is flexible, so the baby can tip forward if she's not touching the floor - an important consideration as a younger baby would be swallowed up by the seat. The "table" top is also not level (it sinks down with the weight of the baby), so don't plan on using this for eating or for putting sippy cups in it (regardless of what it says, though cheerios should be Ok)
GROWS WITH BABY - There are four height positions, each about an inch apart. At the lowest position, the bottom of the seat is about 6" from the floor, the top, 16". In the highest position, the bottom of the seat is about 10" from the floor, the top about 20". I do wish the instructions were clearer for adjusting the height - it's not readily apparent as it extends above where the crossbars on the corners intersect (not below). It's not hard though, just press the button on each leg and, while holding on the leg, raise the top plastic piece in each corner - a picture on the box shows how. The push buttons that lock each leg in place can be tricky but if you rotate the top corner piece a little it makes it easier to slide and lock the bars - fortunately you don't need to adjust the height each time, it closes on any setting.
SURFACE CLEAN - Finally, the material. It's a synthetic canvas-like material that should hold up over time - similar to a duffle's. It's surface clean with water and mild soap (no bleach), air dry. Not practical at all for feeding a baby. I've found that putting a burp cloth on top helps keep it clean as both my babies are teething and drooling a lot. Although it has drink and snack holders, I'd be careful what I'd put in them.
In all, a great baby product that I would highly recommend. If it could be used for eating it would be perfect.
** UPDATE 9/8/11 - these seats were great during a recent evacuation for Hurricane Irene, as they held the babies while we scrambled about and then fit in the car with all the supplies - they fit well in the small interior room we used to ride out the storm. This said, my 32" tall, 22 lb 15 month babies are now in the last setting for height, and I expect I'll be able to use these for a couple of more months. I've found that now that they're able to cruise they have figured out how to slide the seat around several inches on the kitchen floor by jumping and twisting around in it. They are also trying to tip it by pushing forward and backwards (not successful yet but one end did lift off the ground a little). Keep this in mind and never leave them unattended or near stairs or near a coat rack. Not sure how to remedy this but it's still the only activity seat that will hold them **

My 5 month old is not quite sitting up on his own, but is "too tall" for most toys that are for children that are supported sitters. He had outgrown his swing, his baby papasan and his Bumbo is nearly done as well. I bought this, hoping it would be the solution to my problems. I was right! He loves the seat - which has forward leg holes, so he does not hang. The toy loops allow me to trade out toys (as he seems to bore of the same toy after 2-3 days of it) and keeps his feet on a mom approved surface, when there is not one to be found. This was my alternative to the jumper I originally wanted, since, at the rate he is going, I did not expect to get much time out of the jumper. This is worth the money!!

Before I begin, here's some background information:
My daughter has been using this chair since she was 12 weeks old. She is now almost 16 weeks old. My daughter is tall and thin (size 6-9 months). She has been standing, with support, for about 8 weeks. She isn't able to sit completely unsupported just yet (she is able to support her head on her own), so I do supervise her when she is in this chair. Now for the fun part...
I like this chair because:
I like knowing that my baby won't be overstimulated when she uses this chair.
It did not come with toys, but it does have rings so that you are able to attach your own toys.
It folds up for storage (much like a camping chair).
It is easy to fold up. You just press a small, silver button located on the bottom of one of the front "legs".
It easily goes back into the storage bag.
The storage bag has a carry strap.
The height of the chair is adjustable. However, I have not tried it yet.
The fabric is easy to clean with a wet cloth.
Your child stands on a mat, which is attached to the chair. This means that you don't have to worry about your child standing on an unclean surface.
The seat is very generous. My daughter will definitely be able to use it for a long time. For now, I fold a baby blanket in half, then half again, and wrap it around my daughter for support (and to keep her from leaning forward and putting her arms in the leg holes).
The leg holes are generously sized. For this reason, I always make sure my daughter is wearing long pants when she uses this seat. It keeps the fabric from chafing the skin on her legs.
The "tray" has two cup holders (see more on this below).
The chair is not heavy at all. I have taken it to friends' houses without any issues carrying it, taking it out of the bag, setting it up, folding it away, and putting it back in the bag.
There isn't much to complain about. The only con I've found is that when your child sits in it, the "tray" slants down. This will likely cause anything you put in the cup holders to fall towards your baby.
***Update***
My daughter is now six months old. She is now 27 inches tall (as of today).
I have learned how to fold this chair one-handed, while holding my daughter. Tip it on its side, push the button in, and push down on the chair at the same time. It's so easy!
The Hugga-Bebe Infant Support Cushion (Green) works great if your baby has too much wiggle room!
I have had to adjust the height a couple of times (instructions in the manual, which is available on the Kidco, Inc. website, are very clear). It is very easy as long as you push the buttons on the insides of the legs COMPLETELY inward before you twist the tops of the legs (lift the cover to see and make it easier). Otherwise, the legs will not go up and it is frustrating.
My daughter is starting to try to stand on her own. I believe that it has a lot to do with how often she uses this chair. I also believe that she stands flat-footed (not on the balls of her feet) because of this chair. The only time she stands on the tips of her feet is when she is trying to climb out (which is not even remotely possible). I have uploaded a video to show you.
I am still completely happy with my purchase, and plan on buying one for my cousin's baby shower.
Update:
DD is now 17 months old (90th percentile for her height), and it's finally time to get rid of it. DD is able to tip it over, and the fabric is starting to tear at the tops of the poles. I got way more use out of this than most of my friends got out of their exersaucers. I'm still super happy about buying this, recommend this product to everyone, and have bought one as a gift.
