I have a concrete backyard patio... is it soft enough for my 10 month old to sit in if it's on concrete?

Unfortunately it isn't. It is very thin on the bottom and even when filled with the air it allows, the padding/bottom of the pool is insufficient to protect your baby from feeling the concrete straight through.

The sides are not entirely soft or rigid... For me are a little bit rigid but flexible too. I have it for my 1 year old and havent had any problems, but kids can fall on it, just have to be carefull...

Ours is in a well covered patio. Can't give much help..While it is outside, it isn't hit by the rain or much sun.

Place on concrete patio? Sure. Don't foresee a problem unless you intend to plant items that grow really deep roots. On a wood patio? Probably would need a base as dirt will fall/wash away through wood slats.Not sure if you are aware, but the wood is just the 'outline'; frame is seemingly flimsy until dirt is poured in to stabilize the unit.

I would say it definitely needs to be placed on concrete (not turf or dirt), and I think once put together it would be difficult to take apart. I love the flooring- I use it in a section in my garage to make a nice transition into finished space, but I don't think it would come apart easily once put together.

When we lay in ours it sinks down and supports everything. So I would say soft

We live in California and put our tub on a concrete patio. We bought a sheet of hard foam that was about an inch thick and then put the pad that came with the tub on top of that. It pads it nicely and insulates a bit. Very comfy, just expensive to keep it heated to 100 degrees.

It would sit there fine, but if you want it to rock that would probably not work. I have mine on my slate patio outside, and even when it hits an uneven spot I kind of feel it, and it doesn't want to rock very well. For me, that's the nice thing about this chair is that it's relaxing to rock in it. But even without rocking, it's very comfy.

We haven't had any issues with it, and we haven't put sand or anything in it, but it does sit under our table on a patio that doesn't get too windy! It's very cute. The edges are a little sharp. We like ours, especially for the price!

I am still using mine and she is 5 months. I would probably use it until she can sit up. However, just like the other comments, it's great for other uses such as if you need to lay the child down for anything...it's super soft and spongy!

I live in a condo and since moving in I bought two Shih Tzu's. Not having a yard, I wanted a place where we could spend some quality time outdoors without a lease. The turf has worked great for us on the patio. It covers the concrete so we can all roll and tumble together in our little "yard". We simply roll it up when rain is expected. With it and some plastic trees and bushes, our patio was transformed from baron concrete to our own little play ground. I appreciate the transformation each and every day.

Yes. It is soft enought for any age. My 3 yr old uses it & it's squishy. Not bad if they fall. Highly recommend. My 7 yr old likes it too.

Hmmm, bumpy as in broken concrete, or bumpy as in a textured sidewalk? I would say no if it's broken concrete but yes to a textured sidewalk. Mine rides nice on walks down our dirt/gravel road. The stroller is made to take the rougher terrain, but my daughter definitely bobbles around in it (which I had hoped would not happen). She's 6 months old. I would not feel comfortable getting up to any speed when walking on our road due to the rough ride. I'm not sure of any stroller that would take that kind of beating (meaning the kiddo would be in for a smooth ride) unless it had some pretty serious suspension system under it:)

I think so! Surely it's personal preference too. It is lower to the ground than the common bassinets that come with a stand. It does vibrate and can rock but doesn't rock on its own like a cradle swing would. Our baby is currently six months and often sits in there to play and occasionally naps in there. When he was a newborn it was the perfect place to lay him down. We liked the size as it was very portable around the house. The middle position ended up being very useful as he had reflux. Overall I think it's a great option as it costs less than most bassinets and we are still using it in the upright positions. I think so! Surely it's personal preference too.

My son sits comfortably in it for an hour...very slow eater. It's not squishy but isn't hard like plastic. It'll probably be fine.

You definately want to anchor this to the ground. It comes with 4 long U shaped spikes and straps that secure it to the ground. If the child swings to hard it will come up on the pavement. We built ours on the concrete patio and I tried it for sturdiness before moving it onto the mulch of the playground, it definately slides and the small end (without the house) will rock back and forth. Even now when I swing next to my son (he's one, and in the baby swing and I'm about 115 pounds) it moves a little bit and it's anchored in really good. This wouldn't deter me from buying it again since it isn't made for bigger kids (or me...) You definately want to anchor this to the ground.

Hello Lora,3 month!? I think is more confortable for 10 months/1 year old, because the seat is more upright. But for the wheight (14 lbs) shoud be no problem.Regards,José Gomes
