BUMBO + Made of sturdy polyeurophane (sp?) lightweight - No attached toys (might be a good thing if you are picky able what goes in the mouth) - Child often drops toys on floor even when there's a tray attached causing frustration - Leg opening really tight on chubbier legs SUMMER INFANTACTIVITY SEAT + Attached toys give child something to look at, grab and mouth + Don't need to keep picking up toys off the floor + Can attach other toys to prexisting ones + All the perks or an exersauer without taking up a lot of room - Made of cheap platic - Paint comes off toys over time (it's made in the USA so no lead, but still) I think the bumbo is popular because it's industructable and serves its purpose well (helps non-sitters sit), but if your child is like mine he/she will get really frustrated that...Read more 35 of 35 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
