Manual bouncer vs automatic / battery powered

Hi mama&#;s!

Please visit our website for more information on this topic.

I&#;m torn between the baby bjorn bouncer than everyone seems to recommend vs the maxi cosi battery powered one that moves automatically and seems a little more versatile?

Anyone know from first hand what they love and recommend? Images below for reference!

Finding the best baby bouncer to suit your little one could actually change your life as a new mother - and I say that as one of them. Designed to soothe your child with rhythmic motions, a baby rocker or bouncer provides a safe place to put them down when you need your hands back.

My son Jasper is now seven months old. When I was pregnant, it never occurred to me to buy a bouncy chair along with the other essentials I needed (car seat, pram, high chair etc). But I must say the effect has been transformative. 

Of course, I had questions to ask before buying one. What&#;s the difference between a bouncer, rocker and swing? How long do they last? Does the Baby Bjorn bouncer live up to the hype? I turned to Baby Care Expert Millie Poppins. &#;Bouncers are useful from birth as they provide a safe (still supervised) place to put your baby,&#; she explains. &#;The rhythmic bouncing can help to settle a baby as they feel comforted by the motion. The upright position is also great for wind, reflux and general burping after feeding rather than putting your baby down flat.&#;

You can find Millie&#;s advice on the dos and don&#;ts of baby bouncers, the right age to use them and other frequently asked questions at the bottom of this article, beneath my full reviews of the best bouncers on the market. But if you&#;re in a hurry, here&#;s a quick look at my top five:

What should you look for when buying a baby bouncer?

A good rocker will have adjustable heights, be lightweight and easily stored and transported. Millie also recommends buying a bouncer with a removable cover, so that any leaking nappy explosions can be dealt with swiftly.

There are three main types, Millie explains: &#;A bouncer is usually manual. When an adult pushes it, or when a baby wriggles, it moves gently in response and begins to bounce. A rocker or a swing chair is usually electronically automated and has adjustable settings for creating movement.&#;

Our son Jasper suffered from reflux for many months. For that reason we were definitely looking for something to help keep him upright after feeds with washable fabric (given all the spit ups). We also travel quite a bit, so wanted something light that we could take around with us, along with our travel cot. Finally, since it&#;s quite an investment (most of the best known models retail for around £200), we were keen on a bouncer that could be repurposed as a toddler&#;s seat as Jasper grows.
