It's easy to fold the Balance Soft completely flat to store out of the way or take on trips. That's impressive! It also means we shouldn't be surprised when we realise that BabyBjörn dominates our test of baby bouncers in terms of both function and quality – practice makes perfect.Ī good baby bouncer should be mobile and simple, and BabyBjörn has brilliantly combined those features.

Most baby bouncers have no age limit, but they often have a recommended age for best use.īabyBjörn's Balance Soft baby bouncer seat has its roots in an original design from the 1960s, which means it's been around for 50 years. We primarily had families with children under six months try out the different baby bouncer models, but in cases where the manufacturer allows for more prolonged use, children have also tested the functions over a whole year. The bounce: If the bouncing action is soft or jerky, can the child get the baby bouncer to move and keep the bounce going, or do you constantly have to help? At the end of each review, we have also considered the price, as a baby bouncer can cost anything between £20 and £200, and we think the functions should reflect the cost.įunctions: Can the baby bouncer be folded up? Can the backrest be angled, and can it be changed between swinging and locked in a fixed position?įabric: Is the material friendly to the child's skin? Is the fabric organic, and can it be washed or otherwise cleaned? Do the aesthetics work for both a baby boy and baby girl (if desired)? We have used several parameters to arrive at a score for all baby bouncers featured in our reviews. We carry out all of our tests ourselves and test all products in real conditions. Selection of products and test results are in no way influenced by manufacturers, retailers or other internal or external parties.

Our tests are independently conducted and reflect the test editor's honest and objective opinions.
