Prince Lionheart bebePod Plus Orange

This item is cute and would seem to work well in theory, but my daughter never fit into it well enough until she was too old to need to use it. She always slid to one side and leaned at an awkward angle. By the time she fit, she was beginning to stand up and would push her feet down and scream when sat in it. She was kind of a lean baby, so maybe a chunky baby could use this better than she did. The tray placemats are dumb, they don't stick so I never used them. The tray toy however is awesome and Annika played with it for a long time. It was her favorite at one point. Anyone buying this item: keep in mind that it is NOT for use as a booster seat ANYWHERE. It can ONLY sit on the floor. If you set it on something the baby can EASILY tip over and fall out. It's also not meant to be used in the tub.

I bought the bebePod because of the color (orange is my favorite) and because I thought it looked better than the Bumbo. I tried putting my baby in this at 4months and he slotched to the side, at 5months he's getting better with his balance, but when he gets tired or lazy...he still slotches. His daycare center has the Bumbo and from day one he has been able to sit up straight in the chair. So depending on what age your baby is at the time of purchase, think about the Bumbo for babies that's can't sit up straight and the bebePod for babies that can. Have fun with baby!!

We chose this chair over the Bumbo Baby Sitter and Tray Combo - Orange because we like that you can remove the cap that holds the baby's legs in place. On the Bumbo that is actually part of the molded plastic, and sometimes baby's legs can be tough to get out of the chair. Additionally, we love the vibrant and contemporary color of this chair as compared to the washed-out hues of the Bumbo. Both chairs do a wonderful job of getting your child comfortable with the idea of sitting up, but for us the Bebe pod had the features that appealed to us.
