Advantages: light, nice idea

Disadvantages: doesn't feel safe

This seat has won awards and is supposedly one of the must have baby items. It is available in several colours and is widely available. It retails for around £30 although I managed to pick one up in the sale for £18.

Personally, I wasn't impressed; the concept is good and they can go in it as soon as they can hold their head well (at about 4 months) as it supports the back. However, my son didn't like it and by the age of six months he could easily climb out of it, on several occasions he almost managed to tip the whole thing over and although it is placed on the floor, they would still get quite a bang if they manage to tip it.

It's rather expensive for what it is and has quite a short life span; I only used mine for about 2 months. The foam material is wipable and it is very light to transport.

Summary: Unfortunately just another baby gimmmik.
