Durable, good toys, hard to clean and does not collapse, January 18, 2009
This review is from: Kolcraft Baby Sit and Step 2-in-1 Activity Center in Flutter Love (Baby Product)
I have the "boy" version of this saucer, but I don't see it listed on Amazon at the moment. I had this for my son who is now 2 years old. We started using this when he was three months old up until he was in the late crawling/walking phase (around 1 year old).
PROS: I love the toys. They are durable and very diverse. The ball slide really captivated his attention when he got older and really helps with hand-eye coordination. It is very sturdy. Assembly was not overly complicated.
CONS: It is big and bulky. It does not fold or collapse. It is also very hard to clean around the toys. The toys are not detachable, so to get in all the nooks and crannies makes things difficult. I had thought when I purchased this that it would last with the "walk behind" feature. That feature was not very well received by my son or my friend's child who used it after him.
This saucer was not only used by our son, but passed on to a friend's child and we just got it back for my second child, who is now 3 months old. I had it asembled and put my 3-month old daughter in it with a blanket supporting her back, and she was smiling at cooing. My 2 year old son is also re-discovering it, using the balls and he is playing with the ball features around the legs, which gets him out of my 3-month old's face (he LOVES her in a smothering type of way).
However, I am searching Amazon now for another saucer. This one is definately high-dollar but since we are limited on space and overgrown with kids toys now, I want something more compact and easy to fold. I also would like to find toys that are easier to clean around. A family member has the Evenflow system and I really like how it folds and the detachable toys. So, although the toys on this saucer are much more interesting and very durable, I am probably going to replace it for a cheaper, more durable version.
Remember when pricing out saucers that you are going to get maybe 9 months of wear out of it, and once they are mobile they would rather be on-the-go!!!!

The best thing we've bought in 6th months!, November 30, 2009
This review is from: Kolcraft Baby Sit and Step 2-in-1 Activity Center in Flutter Love (Baby Product)
I never write reviews, I'm mainly just a shopper - However, this product was the best thing we've bought for our 6 month old baby I had to let everyone know, it's worth the hype! I'm a shopper that looks for things that can be utilized as long as possible, and with babies, it's really hard to find. However, with this item, you're able to get the excitement and energy from a regular exersaucer *and* continue to use it as an aid to help the baby walk! My child is 7 months now and she has been using it everyday and still doesn't grow tired of it. It gives me the time and rest I need and her the fun and stimulation she needs to grow! Perfect combination, perfect buy!

My 9 month really enjoys playing in the entertainment/activity center. The only thing I would change is the heights of the center. My daughter still is not able to touch the bottom of the disk and gets tired quickly. We need to put a pillow underneath so there is support for her feet.
