Bumbo Seat - Omaha,NE

I am thinking of purchasing the Bumbo seat for my almost 5 month old. Has anyone ever used one of these and if so what do you think? Is it worth the money?

What can I do next?

I got one when my oldest was a baby. I used it a lot with my first 2 boys but I haven't used it much with my youngest because his legs are already too fat for it (he's 4 months old). If he fit in it better I would use it a ton. If you are worried about cost you could check Craigslist for a used one.

We borrowed one which seemed to be the perfect option since we didn't use it a lot. I would recommend buying used, as you would save money and I doubt they can get worn out with so little use.

Hello! I write a parenting blog and actually wrote a review of both the Bumbo and the bebePOD after I received samples for a side-by-side comparison. I'm a fan of the bebePOD...and certainly find a baby seat worth the money. I have always brought one with us when we're going out to eat to keep my babies out of germ-infested restaurant high chairs...and they're great for early feeding your little one as they wipe clean much easier than a high chair with multiple parts. That's my two cents. If you'd like to read my other thoughts and the entire reviews, you can use the links below.

It's okay. I started putting my daughter in it at 4 months, she was only able to use it for about a month. Her legs were getting too chubby for it. I didn't think it was worth the money. I would just put him in a high chair.

I think it's a hit or miss with babies. My 4mo. old likes it here and there for like 10min. at a time. She has more fun in her exersaucer to be honest. Maybe as she gets older she'll like it more. It is nice for feeding her in and taking pictures of her in it. She sits up real nice and high.

I would buy second hand look on craigslist.
