Featured Parents' Reviews

  • It’s not hip friendly, since it keeps them in there so tightly... and I don’t like that it can tip over easily if you have a squirmy baby. Will not recommend. Get a different baby seat. Dec 17, 2018

  • My babies’ legs were a little too chunky for the bimbo seats. By the time they were able to sit up in the seat, their legs were too big to fit comfortably in the seat. Great idea , though!! Dec 15, 2018

  • I definitely loved this. My children loved to sit in this to eat when they started baby foods. Or just to play. It was easy to clean and easy to store. Oct 17, 2018

  • My baby liked sitting in this for a different position, but i didnt find it "essential" and couldve gone without. Aug 25, 2018

    My grandson used this product for 3 weeks. It seemed to me that he was to small for it then fit well then leaned over the side and crawled out! Aug 25, 2018

  • Works well to help infants sit up. My babies had such chunky thighs the would get stuck in there. Nice that you can attach a tray and let them have a snack while on the floor. Aug 04, 2018

  • Terrible for baby, but even if you wanted to use it the leg openings didn't even fit my 4 mo old! Make sure your baby can sit up well before putting them in this! May 25, 2018

  • This was a great help for our daughter to work on sitting up when she wasn't quite there. We also used it with the tray for a traveling high chair (always supervised when on raised surface) May 18, 2018

  • Clever idea but not a huge fan. My baby never looked comfortable in it so I used it sparingly. May 04, 2018

  • I wasn't as big a fan of the bumbo as I had hoped. It was nice to sit baby close to me while I was doing things but I felt like she flopped around too easily in this. May 01, 2018

  • This was a hand me down but I don’t like it, neither does baby. He’s chunky but he’s 5 months old and can still fit 3 months so he’s really not very big but the middle digs in to his knees Apr 30, 2018

  • got this for my daughter at 4 months- when she was trying to sit up. She never liked it and we found it more a pain to get her in/out then i was a useful product. Mar 29, 2018

    I thought this would be such a useful item but unfortunately my baby's chunky legs were just not fitting there properly. he was getting agitated every time i tried using it. maybe for smaller babies? Mar 15, 2018

  • I really liked this baby seat, my baby enjoys being in it! The only thing is it’s a little tricky to get baby out of sometimes there legs get stuck. Mar 10, 2018

  • The Bumbo is a must have for all my babies! Out of my 4 that have used it so far they have all loved it and I love having a safe place to sit them when they can't quite sit up by themselves yet. Mar 02, 2018

  • I don’t understand the appeal of this. By the time my son could hold his head up, his thighs were too big for the seat. When I tried putting him in it, he cried. He much preferred sitting in my lap. Feb 23, 2018

    • Shelby Township, Michigan

    Our little girl can't quite sit up on her own but doesn't like to be laying down most of the time so she really enjoys being able to sit up in this seat! Feb 20, 2018

  • This was handy as a makeshift booster/high chair, but it really didn’t work for us. The material is very soft and moveble but it’s bulky and takes up a lot of space. Feb 16, 2018

  • Amazing product! Great help. Specially for me with twins. I use it for feeding time. I have heard people say they use it in the shower also. Easy to clean. Feb 13, 2018

  • I bought one of these because everyone seemed to have one and raved how it helped their little one learn to sit. However, my baby hated it and learned to sit on her own she used it three times tops. Feb 07, 2018

  • My baby likes to sit up and explore when sitting in this. Borrowed from a friend, so can't speak to the price but I would recommend. Feb 03, 2018

  • Still one of my favorite seats for 3+ months to whenever my kiddos thighs got too big lol just the right amount of support and easy to clean. Feb 01, 2018

  • We used this when our daughter started sitting up! But it wasn’t used for very long. Jan 29, 2018

  • We liked this seat, but it can only be used for a very brief period of time. Our son grew out of it very quickly, and if your baby has chunky thighs it might never really work. Nice for taking pics in Dec 28, 2017

  • My baby loves sitting in her bumbo since 4 months old. She loves to sit up and play with both hands. The tray is great. Easy to clean and carry. We love our bumbo. Dec 16, 2017

  • We don't have a high chair yet so this is super useful with the tray. It's also easy to travel with and move from room to room when baby girl wants to sit up. Dec 12, 2017

  • I had this for my first daughter and it was okay. I found something way more comfy and easier on baby and I love it way better than this Nov 16, 2017

  • I love this chair to help with neck control, and it allows baby to sit up safely before they can on their own. My son who is 2 1/2 still fits in it. Nov 13, 2017

  • I found the leg holes to be way too small for either of my children to be comfortable by the time they were old enough for the Bumbo. Nov 12, 2017

  • I, personally, like the Bumbo seat to include a baby who is not quite sitting independently in family meal times where he/she can interact and play. Nov 05, 2017

  • We actually used this a lot We used it to help with feedings (introducing solids) when he wasn’t big/strong enough to sit up in high chair yet. Nov 02, 2017

  • Are fat boys chubby legs were just too big. He never fit in the chair. It always looked uncomfortable. We preferred the fisher price sit me up. Nov 02, 2017

  • Love this seat but baby outgrew it very quickly - their chubby little legs can't squeeze into the openings. Definitely helped when he was learning to sit up and perfect for on the go feedings! Nov 01, 2017

    • Nina M.

    • Jacksonville, Florida

    YAS! BUMBO! Take it anywhere, strap them down, non-slip, smushy comfort, they can't escape. I'd say buy two but you'll only need one since you can take this anywhere! Oct 27, 2017

  • LOVE the Bumbo seat. Great for helping baby sit, some come with trays which are great for feeding and smaller homes, and they're so easy to wipe down. A little pricy, but worth the buy to us! Oct 26, 2017

    • chaide w.

    • mount carmel, Pennsylvania

    Great seat to keep in the car for trips to grandma's. Sturdy and keeps the baby positioned perfectly. Oct 25, 2017

  • Perfect to help a baby sit up better. It's also good to feed meals in. Oct 24, 2017

    • Danae B.

    • middletown, New Jersey

    This seat can be useful for short periods of time with older infants that can sit up by themselves and play for a few minutes. Overall, it is not useful and takes up space. Oct 24, 2017

    • Katie F.

    • Ridgecrest, California

    Great for keeping baby happy while working from home, cooking dinner, or eating dinner. It was great for feeding during his first solids too. Helped him learn to hold his head up. Oct 19, 2017

  • Bumbo seats are great, especially for babies when they're first learning to sit up. It's sturdy enough, yet has a bit if squish to it. Oct 18, 2017

  • This Bumbo chair was amazing to help my preemie learn to sit up on his own. Oct 18, 2017

  • This is a fantastic product have had mine for Years used it on my son and other people's baby's. Will be using with our new addition in Oct. Oct 06, 2017

  • Love this. You have to have one. It’s on par with the boppy. You can take it anywhere, it’s light and safe. Only thing I have heard is obviously not to leave kids in it excessively to avoid hip issues Oct 06, 2017

  • We didn't get as much use out of this as we thought we would. I preferred a pillow to position her more upright since it allowed her to be mobile and build more muscles. Oct 04, 2017

    • Patty M.

    • Winchester, California

    My.older son loved his helped him to learn to sit up! Sep 28, 2017

  • Loves these seats. So easy to take with. Works great as a travel high chair when baby starts to eat cereal. Or just as a seat to put toys on.(with tray) so light and small to transport. Sep 24, 2017

  • We loved our bumbo, my LO thighs got too big too fast thought Sep 24, 2017

  • I love that I can use this for many different activities with my Lo and allows her to sit up without my help but she always looks so uncomfortable and quickly wants out. Sep 23, 2017

  • Love this! It was a must have on my registry with my first kid. It's nice to have when you want to keep them in one place but then also I've used it for them to eat in. Sep 21, 2017

  • Cool concept, but doesn't get used nearly as much as we had hoped. Baby isn't a huge fan of the feel of it. Sep 18, 2017
