CALMING
When all else fails, this calms my son (4 months old), and has since he was born (I used a different chair that fully reclined until he could hold his head up).
The vibration unit is great at calming my son.
CONSTRUCTION
The bouncer is sturdy and having used 4 different chairs now, I see that the construction of this chair is well done. The chair legs suspend the seat and are strong but have enough give that when you apply pressure with your foot you can get a nice bounce rhythm going.
My only misgiving is that the seat orientation is not adjustable. Baby will be in a constant reclined position, about a 45 degree angle. But as I look around, I don't see any other chairs now that adjust. Maybe the ability to adjust the chair posed a danger? So this still gets 5 stars.
ENTERTAINING
My son loves to look at and bat at the toys. The toy bar is removable so when he's had enough I can take it away. The middle toy is a plush detachable owl. The side toys are hard plastic and do not come off the bar. The fabric is more attractive in person that online for some reason.
BOTTOM LINE
For a baby that doesn't like to be set down, this is the only thing that allows me to have my hands free and calms my son when he's having a melt down. It has all the things I need in a bouncer and at the best price! It is a must have for me!

If you need a basic bouncer for occasional use, this one may fit the bill. It's attractive, has a mild vibration setting, and has a decent enough reclined position. However, my son is not a huge fan (maybe he'll grow into it), probably because it's a bit boring and not very soft. Also, it lacks a newborn insert so you'll need to use a rolled up blankie if that's how you plan to use the chair.
I wouldn't give it big thumbs up or down. It's kind of lackluster.

Works well on a D-Cell battery (you have to supply) and it was fairly easy
to construct. It is a little big for my daughter now, but I look forward
to her growing into it.

I'm still trying to figure out why this bouncer cost so much less than the other ones when it really is a wonderful product. It does the job and looks good while doing it. My twins love it, so I'm thinking of buying a second one. (Right now I rotate them in other activities.) The person who gave it four stars because it has a vibrating option and because they stubbed toes is really kind of silly. The first issue isn't a problem--no one is forcing you to use the vibration feature and the stubbing toe issue will likely happen with any bouncer. This is the least expensive bouncer I could find and it is really cute. Perhaps the decor is a bit on the autumnal side with the browns and oranges, but that is easily overlooked at such a great price.

We also have the Boppy bouncer but my son loves this one the best. The motion of the Boppy concentrates on the lower part of the body while this one focuses on the top half so I guess he prefers this one. The only drawback is that he's only 3 months old and it looks like he may grow out of it soon; some of the other Fisher Price bouncers are bigger. Overall, this goes to show that a more expensive bouncer does not mean better.
