Bright Starts Playful Parade Door Jumper

Affordable and fun for my babygirl. I started using this when she was 5 month old. I read some reviews complaining about their baby leaning on one side. I didnt mind that so much. She’s 5 months, they would lean to one side. But she still had fun in it! She’s 7 months now and she love it! She’s jumping, leaning, twirling. It’s great. Other companies sell it for so much more, it’s ridiculous! Just make sure your doorway or an entryway to a room has molding. I recommend it. The only downside is, like any other jumpers, it’s annoying to place and take your baby out of it. But whatever, baby loves it.

Awesome item

After reading some of the reviews I have to disagree with a few of them. It works well with 8ft ceiling doorframe. You definitely have to have molding on the door frame for extra support.. Anywho our child is 5 months old 26in long and roughly 19lbs. Works great for us. We take it on road trips since it's great and simple to pack. We love this thing and it gives our child something to do besides the play mat. Highly recommend for the babies that are active.

Dangerous & unsafe

Used it for first time this evening & my grandson nearly fell out of the seat, definitely not a safe or secure item. Baby leans to one side & device does not remain stable. So grateful I was at his side to save him from serious injury

Easy set up

Seems very strong and secure to the framework of the doorway. My grandson is very happy in it. Physical Therapist recommends only 20 minutes a day in it. Apparently not good for babies hips. Price is right giving my grandson a different position to be in instead of his back or tummy through this wake times. He really enjoys it!

Epic failure!

This thing is ridiculously short! The q&a answers from bright star were very unclear on the height range.. who has a 4-6 foot tall doorway?? This thing is so short it wouldn’t work in my 1950’s home and obviously is WAY too short for my new construction home. Huge disappointment. The seat is enormous, I could probably fit in it. Amazed it has such good reviews. Returning!

Good idea but no

This look like it would work out while we weren’t going to be home but this is a little dangerous. My son loves to jump on his bounce and this was just frustrating for him. He kept moving to one side more then the other and would kind of get stuck pumping on one leg! We tried putting things around him to that he would stay center but it didn’t work. The bouncer isn’t stable so if he isn’t moving he would turn all 360 which didn’t help if he was to one side, he almost hit his head a few times! I think it’s a good idea but it didn’t work for us..

Great value

We bought this jumper for our three (almost four) month old baby. He loves it. We have not encountered any issues with him bouncing into the door frame like some other reviews mentioned. With him being so small though, we do have to stuff some small blankets around him to keep him upright because the seat is pretty roomy. The clamp is pretty easy to put up and take down from the door frame. In all, I think it is a great value for only $20.

So dangerous do not use for small babies!

Very dangerous for a small baby. The basket is too wide and tall. My small 5 month old baby loves to stand and jump but doesn’t have very strong arm control yet. She had one arm down in the basket which caused her to lean forward all her weight onto her chest and neck. With no way to push her self back the front of her neck was pressed against the bar/ring around the top of the basket (like I said basket is too tall/deep). She was gasping and wheezing as the metal ring pressed against her esophagus. Thank goodness I had only left her there for a moment before coming back to find her this way. 

Very disappointed, way too big.

This thing is huge, my son loves his jumper and can sit unassisted, he’s 7 months and 22 pounds and is no where near fitting in this thing. It hangs a few feet off the floor so even if the seat did fit him he wouldn’t be close to touching the ground.

What baby does this work for?!

When we first purchased, our daughter was able to hold herself up when we held onto her, and enjoyed pushing off with her feet. She was about 3 months old, but we knew she was still a bit too small. We waited until she was 5 months old to try to use it. She was absolutely drowning in it. The seat is huge. She pitched forward immediately, and her neck was resting right on the edge! We removed her and didn't try again until recently, 3 months later. She's almost 18 pounds, and can sit up unsupported. She is STILL drowning in this thing. She's at least not choking, but there's no way for her to sit up in this thing, she's always pitched forward. The sides are lodged right into her armpits, which is uncomfortable. I could tell she was also frustrated by the spinning ... MoreWhen we first purchased, our daughter was able to hold herself up when we held onto her, and enjoyed pushing off with her feet.

I could tell she was also frustrated by the spinning feature - our first hcild had a similar door jumper, and she could spin around in it as well, but the mechanism seemed more controlled. Our first baby used that one when she was only 5 months old with absolutely no discomfort or danger, either - so I have no idea what the hell this company is thinking putting together a jumper like this. I can't think of any age that it would be appropriate for, except maybe a 1 year old - and by then, they probably wouldn't enjoy it. I'm upset that we even bothered trying a new design - I should have just repurchased the one we had before.
