Bumbo Baby Seat Reviews

My son was the second person to use his Bumbo and I have just passed it to a friend to use with her little one. It is a great invention. I really like how soft it is. Its not made from hard plastic that our little one's could hurt themselves on, but it is still hard enough to keep them stable. I used the Bumbo with my son from about 4 months old. ...  Read the complete review

This is a true must for all babies! Suitable from approximately 3 months old, babies are able to sit up in this innovative design, safely and comfortably. It has no straps, but babies are secured in by the position they are forced in to by the shape of the legs and a middle section that lends some support to their trunk. It ...  Read the complete review

Oh my god, what a wonderful invention! After 3 months of having my daughter permanently attached to me I bought a bumbo and finally had two hands again. Maybe it was the fact that she didn't crawl and was a late walker but this really did help day to day. I think the fact that the child can sit up independently in it makes them much more ...  Read the complete review

I first saw Bumbos when i was pregnant and couldn't wait to get my daughter one. We got her one when she was 3 months old and at first she loved being able to sit up and watch the tv. My plan was to get a tray for it so when she started weaning she could have finger foods whilst sitting in it, however as she got older and could sit comfortably ...  Read the complete review

Despite being asked countless times if it's a potty (like a 6 month old would be potty trained) those in the know love the bumbo. My bumbo is bright blue and has been in use daily since my daughter was 4 months old. A safe haven to leave a wriggly baby for a few minutes if a parent's attention is diverted elsewhere. When we first got ...  Read the complete review

After looking at these seats and reading many reviews I decided to go ahead and purchase one. The one that I brought was from Amazon and cost £27.99. The following day my parcel arrived, the box is shaped like a hexagon and is brightly coloured with pictures of babies in the seat on all the sides. The Bumbo originates from ...  Read the complete review

A few years back now well 2 and a half anyway we looked high and low for one of these bumbo chairs. This was when they took the UK by storm I do believe. We got one thought in babies r us. Though the only colour left was Aqua. Which was a nice colour actually. From what I can make out. The Bumbo chair came from South Africa and ...  Read the complete review

I bought a pink bumbo when my daughter was around 3-4 months all after hearing good feedback, however I dont think it deserves the good feedback as I had nothing but hassel!! I put my daughter in it she looked slumped and floppy did not feel she was safe in it and she was good and strong with her head. As she got older she tensed her ...  Read the complete review

Originally I dismissed the bumbo as a gimmick but after weeks of hearing my friends raving on about how wonderful they were - advantages: really easy to keep clean, great for feeding baby in, portable so not only can you take it from room to room at home but great for when you want to go swimming so that you can put the baby down in the changing ...  Read the complete review

A Bumbo, for anybody that hasn't come across one before, is a rubbery bucket shaped seat for babies. Unlike more traditional bouncy chairs, a Bumbo supports a baby in an upright position and the deep-cut leg-holes and the design of the chair means that a more active baby can't (allegedly) get out of one of these by themselves. The Bumbo comes in a ...  Read the complete review

I had never seen a Bumbo Baby Seat until my daughter started nursery but if I ever have any more kids I would definitely invest in one of these. It looks like a small potty with little spaces at the front for your child's legs. It's made of a squishy rubber and come in different bright colours. It comes in handy when your ...  Read the complete review

Definately one of the best things I bought for my baby, this moulded seat is comfortable and safe for little babies. My daughter loved sitting in this and because I got the play tray it was very useful in the early stages of weaning. It also proved handy for popping my baby in when I was in the kitchen or bathroom as its so light and ...  Read the complete review

The Bumbo is a seat that enables babies to sit unaided. It can be used as soon as baby can lift their head - I would say at around 3 or 4 months. The Bumbo should stop being used when the child is able to remove themselves from the Bumbo - the company suggest at around 12 - 14 months but I would suggest around 11 months depending on how active and ...  Read the complete review

We bought the bumbo seat when my son was 3 months old. I loved the idea of him being able to sit up on his own. However my baby wasn't as quick as other babies in holding up his head and with the slightest movement his head would drop down. So if you buy this seat make 100% sure that your baby is good at holding their head up. By the time my ...  Read the complete review

I bought a Bumbo second hand for my son and started using it with him when he was 14 weeks old. He wasn't sure at first, but really enjoyed sitting in it once he had got used to it! We bought it to use in place of a high chair as we were short on space, and it did the job perfectly. He really seemed to enjoy being able to sit up and join in with ...  Read the complete review

I bought a second-hand Bumbo from an NCT sale for £15 and I'm quite glad I didn't pay full price for it. Our daughter has always been quite active and likes standing up with us holding her. This meant that as soon as we put her in the bumbo, she would try and straighten up and usually got very fed up after a few minutes. It wasn't for her, ...  Read the complete review

i recently thought id buy a Bumbo baby seat for my 8 month old daughter,mainly so that i could put her in what ever room i was in whilst doing the housework,after looking all over the internet i brought mine from mothercare for £32.99,i thought this was expensive but would be a good investment in her safety as she is now able to get into a little ...  Read the complete review

I love the bumbo. Who would have thought that a funny looking piece of moulded foam would be so useful with a young child! Both of my children have enjoyed sitting in the bumbo. My daughter used to love to sit in it under her playmat arches, so she could reach the toys without lying down. It proved invaluable in the early days of weaning, ...  Read the complete review

When my sister was a baby she had a Bumbo and it suited her because she always liked being held upright right from being a tiny baby so she sat in it from about 4 months old and used it until she started walking when she was nearly 1 year so that's a good lifespan for it being as it was used everyday. A Bumbo looks like a big potty but ...  Read the complete review

The Bumbo seat was a huge disappointment to me. It did not work for very long at all as my baby somehow managed to escape from it from about 7 months. Despite the deep seat and high back which enable a small baby to be able to sit up, he was able to wiggle one leg down to the floor and push himself out with that leg! So we stopped using it after ...  Read the complete review
