Too much whiz and not enough bang

Comments about Combi Pod Bouncer Chili:
We got this bouncer for our first son and it was sooo disapointing. You need to use both hands to move the item, or else the base will detached itself. It was unstable and unsecure. The batteries run out quickly. The base ended up braking. Really unpractical item and a complete waste of money. DON'T BUY IT!!
Just Okay

This is a good vibrating seat, and will stay on as long as the batteries will last. The music will play one song, and then you have to push the button to play the next song. It is neat that you can hook your i-pod into it though. But the base of it will fall off when we are moving it from room to room, and sometimes it won't power up. You have to bang it around a little for it to turn back on. The toys aren't low enough that the smaller babies can grab them, and you can't add additional toys it it (no where for rings to clip onto). We'll be getting a new one for baby #2
Loved that is sits up and lays down

Comments about Combi Pod Bouncer Chili:
I love this bouncer. I chose it because it can lay back for baby's nap and sit up for baby to look around and sit up with the family. I used it laying down for baby #2 to take a nap and then sat her right up to hang out with the family during dinner or cooking. We used this everyday with our daughter until she was 7 months - then she was too mobile to stay put. It love it. We never did use the ipod hook-up. Baby did better with quiet. I only wish I would have had this for baby #1
Not great

My daughter did not like this bouncer. She only used it a few times, so it was a waste of money. I think one with lights and more toys would have been more entertaining for her. I will be buying another bouncer for baby #2.
LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE

This was by far my favorite thing that I had when my son was first born till he was about 6 months old. I used to plug in my Ipod, turn on the vibration and he'd fall asleep in minutes and would stay in there for his naps, or watch me make dinner or eat, it was perfect. He loved the wood blocks, and it was really stable and I was never worried about him falling out of it or tipping over. Then when he got older he would watch his videos in it ever morning and was so happy. He's now 10 months old and I wish I could still use it, but since he was about 6 months and learned to sit up on his own, he liked to sit up in and take the bouncer with him and I was worried he would fall head first out of it, but he would have done that in any bouncer so it's not poor construction on their part or anything. Actually if anything, if had been a different bouncer he probably WOULD have toppled head first over. I would buy this again in a second!
Couldnt have lived without it!

My son spent the fast majority of his sleeping hours the first six weeks in this chair. The vibration was a life saver! And now that hes six months old we still use it on almost a daily basis. We sit him in it for anything from just playing with toys to watching his baby einstein DVDs. The only think I will say is, when we recieved ours, the toys on the toy bar werent yellow and orange. They were gray and red like the chair, but we dont mind and he doesnt seem to either!
Really nice

I put my son in the Combi when I take a shower and when I am working at my desk. He loves the vibration and is starting to be interested in the toys hanging in front of him. I like that all of the extras are removeable, but I would like someone to make one of these chairs with controls on the top AND the bottom as I find that I am usually sitting in front of him and have to reach really far to turn it on and off.
Great for our little one

We have this product in green and love it. Our son does not like to be flat on his back and won't sleep in his bassinet, but he'll fall asleep easily in this. He loves the vibration feature and the music. It's also great how it can tilt down so he can sleep and the tilt up to look around.
We only wish it didn't go through batteries so quickly..it would be better if had an AC cord to plug into the wall and if it played the pre-recorded music longer then a minute or so.
The i-pod hook up is great though.
Waste of money

I put my daughter in this bouncer and she cried like it was killing her. Aside from that, it's difficult to get the batteries in the unit. And it goes through batteries quickly, what makes that worse is that it can not take rechargeable batteries. Plus, it's not that hot pink color that the picture implies, it's more like a dark red brick - not really a baby color. I think the babies like the swings better than the bouncers - my daughter loves her swing.
