Do you need a vibrating bouncer AND this chair? I will be getting a swing for sure, to keep downstairs. Should I get a vibrating bouncer for upstairs?

No i think they are doing the same job. This chair is a bouncer. It moves with the natural body move of the baby. My son figured out very soon how to make it move by moving his legs rhythmically and he was very happy. I tried vibrating bouncers before and he rejected them all. But then every baby is different..

I've returned this chair because we have a vibrating bouncer and my son likes that bouncer much better. this chair is just like simple bouncer with different angle options.so I keep a vibrating bouncer in our room and we don't have a swing but a rocking chair in the other room.so I'd say no if you have vibrating bouncer, you won't need this chair.

It's so easy to carry from room to room I personally wouldn't bother. I moved it from downstairs to the bathroom while I showered to near the kitchen table.

If you put it in the fully reclined position it should be ok, they will just be tiny in it. It will only rock once they are strong enough to kick their legs and rock it. You may want a swing for when they are younger now that I think about it. I would refer to their website to see what they say. We also had a Mamaroo that we put her in to nap, we used the Baby Bjorn more when were eating or showering. She's a year this week and I still put her in the Bjorn when she has her bottles.

I would think so. We have 8 foot ceilings and the bouncer does not touch the ceiling. Also note there is no roof to the bouncer.

Unfortunately, no. It would be too uncomfortable for the swings. Not too heavy.

The blower it comes with blows the bouncer up. It comes with everything it needs. You might need to purchase and extension cord separate depending on where you plan to set it up.

If your floors are carpeted, that would help. I also think it might depend on your particular apartment building and how much noise you hear from your neighbors. The rebounder isn't especially noisy.

They should be able to absorb some noise. I would recomend maybe putting the non slip mats underneath (mat you put under rug to keep from slipping) as added padding. I think any upstairs jumping would get noisy but these should be ok for kids. Unfortunately mine is stationed in garage so i can't really tell you from experience. Sorry.

Mine doesnt squeak! The springs provided with this swing are very high quality. My lack of squeak may be how it's hung -- I have heavy chain wrapped around an iron pipe, and the springs are hooked into this. Perhaps other methods of hanging will create more noise. I suggest trying it out and then evaluating your need for squeak suppression.

depending on how many kids you have and how aggressive they are with their bouncing you may not need anything. I know when we first set ours up outside we did not anchor it to the ground at all (although it is recommended) after a couple hours of bouncing we noticed it started to shift from the original position, but that was after the bigger kids got in on it, when it was just he littles (5 and under) they didn't seem to effect the position of the bounce house at all. If your kiddos are small and there are only a couple you could probably get away with no sandbags, if they are older, bigger and more aggressive then you will definitely need something to anchor it down.

I have only used the Bouncer out doors, because I purchased it in the spring. I do not plan on using it inside my home.

It's not as much a bouncer as a swing, but I hung it indoors. I hung this when my baby was 10 months. He still loves it at 15 months. It's very cute!

this particular item is for a newborn up till your child is 3. It rocks but also it can be used as a chair. My daughter didnt like the swing we had, it was a Graco swing. And we had a jumperoo for her, which she did like..but that is more for exercise and activity. This is good if your doing things around the house and you can strap your child in while he or she is drinking a bottle. Or if your in the bathroom and you want to keep an eye on your child you can bring this in the bathroom with you and strap your child in. Really there is not much you nessacarily NEED...its more of what will your child like and what will fit your lifestyle in your household. Your child can also sleep in this, there is a strap in the back that unclicks and it the back falls down a bit so your child is laying. I like this chair personally and my daughter likes it. Shes now 18 months. To answer your question this doesn't replace say a swing. but again its about what you want your child to have and think what he or she would like.

I wouldn't suggest it. Kids will be kids and fall all over the bouncer. Falling on the grass outside is a lot nicer than falling on furniture/wood flooring inside. Plus the fan is going to be pretty load. In this weather let them keep their shoes on and use it outside. Hope that helps.

We had to use a small air compressor. I would not recommend this bouncer. Read the reviews. Ours split at the seam and I read reviews after to see if anyone else had the same problem. I found that it is an issue with nearly everyone who purchased it.

I live in the basement, so I have no one under me. Its on carpet but the carpet in the a cement floor. The machine itselt isnt loud but not sure about the vibration it would make. Sorry cant help more. I do love the treadmill!!!!!!!

I think it depends on your preference and what you think your baby will like. I didnt have a swing this time around because it wasnt that useful with my first baby. This chair came in handy when I wanted to shower or do something. I would put the baby in it an turn on the vibration which soothed her. She also liked when I would bounce her in it. I must say that she didnt like too long in it. By 8 months, she was out of it but now at 14 months, she plays with it. It doesnt take up much space.

I haven't bought this chair yet. I have severe back issues, I am usually in my bedroom by 4 or 5 in the afternoon. I would love to enjoy my downstairs a lot more, I would love to have a softer chair to relax in and enjoy my family/ Any opinions will be appreciated and taken into cosideraton

yes, the springs will allow you to bounce and really cushion the swing. I would recommend them, you must however, be careful of the weight limit.
