I've had every entertainment program right up to the original Exersaucer so there could be a lot of comparisons in my review. Love this new exersaucer, so glad they brought back an easier option. Exersaucer was great for the first 5-6 years except for a few toys. After that, the exercises became overwhelming, noisy, overstimulating. That was one of the reasons I switched to Jumperoo when it first came out, fewer toys. I also thought the Jumper's foldable legs would make it more compact for travel, but that's not the case, this Exersaucer (without the stack of large and bulky toys of previous models) folds up just as small, if not smaller. All of my kids that I've had exersaucers in place of entertainment centers, jumperoos, etc. also really liked the exersaucer (for non-designated ones) once they started crawling. They would climb onto the ground and swing, and when they came up the exersaucer was at the perfect height and could be stabilized with its legs. This exersaucer comes with 3 removable, interchangeable toy clips (which I've even put on previous models). in the dishwasher to clean) that can simply be left on or off to keep the toy even less stimulating and always fresh. It also comes with a toy bar with 3 monkeys that slide around like a bead maze that many babies and toddlers love. It's even easy to take off. Plus a beaded spinner to create a soft, gentle, non-electronic noise. And finally a mirror so the child can admire himself, a huge childish activity (even if he doesn't realize it's him). zone "tray". The biggest thing that attracts me to the Exersaucer is that on the lowest settings it is suitable for small 4 month olds. The Jumperoo or other walkers we tested were too high and required a pillow (not recommended by the manufacturer) under your feet. The only reason I gave it 4 stars versus 5 is that I wish the mirror was bigger, it's almost useless. With its small size and since kids love mirrors I think it's a great idea but useless at this size. And because I feel like the 3 stabilizing legs that keep it from rocking are less stable than before (I think maybe it used to have 4?) it doesn't rock but rather tilts slightly when the baby moves bends forward. This is good for stable kids, but if the kid is big enough to try it, their upper body control may not be good enough for this slight incline. We are using it for a baby who is just 4 months old and is doing well. Reading the other reviews before buying I noticed that some bad reviews were that it didn't have any lights or sounds, so I disagree that your mileage may vary depending on what you're looking for. I prefer no lights or noises, babies are easily overstimulated.
