Buy the Best Jumperoo for Baby
My baby boy has just turned 4 1/2 months old and we have just bought him a top jumperoo, after researching lots of jumperoos including makes by Fisher Price and Baby Einstein. Jumperoos aren't cheap and this article gives the findings on my research as to which is the best jumperoo for you and your baby taking into account their features, price and quality.
When choosing your jumperoo take into account the following features and considerations:
Price: Jumperoos can range from about 65 to 100 dollars if they are brand new. It may be worth considering a 2nd hand jumperoo and this can considerably reduce the cost. Ebay is a great place to start. Jumperoos are expensive but they have a good resell value so you can recuperate a lot of the cost after you've finished using it.
Space: Jumperoos can take up a huge amount of space. If you are short on space there are designs which fold up so it may be worth considering these if space is an issue.
Lights, music and toys: From my research most jumperoos offer high quality toys for babies to play with. The toys vary dependent on the theme of the jumperoo you purchase. However, most keep babies well occupied and entertained. Most jumperoos also reward jumping with lights and music.
Take a look an individual features and reviews of the best jumperoos in 2012 below.

Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo
The Fisher Price rainforest jumperoo is perhaps the most popular jumperoo available in 2012.
Price: It's recommended retail price is $95.99, although you can often find it much cheaper than this. At the time of writing amazon are currently offering the Fisher Price rainforest jumperoo at $65. You can usually recuperate at least half of this outlay in reselling the jumperoo when you have finished using it too.
Toys: There are toys at five locations on the platform to entertain babies and a 360 degrees rotating seat so baby can turn and reach all the toys. There's music and lights which are activated by play too.
Space: It folds down into a nested position so it doesn't take up as much room when it's not in use which is a big plus factor in my opinion.

Bright Starts Activity Jumper
This is called a jumper rather than a jumperoo but it is essentially a similar category of toy.
Space: The advantage that this jumper has is that it completely folds away. It is also slightly smaller than the rainforest jumperoo (although only slightly) so is a good buy if you don't have as much space.
Toys: The jumper includes a music station which features melodies, piano, and silly sounds that are activated by baby's jumping. The toys include a plush critter character, bead chaser, and mirror to keep baby entertained.
Price: It's recommended retail price is $74.99 but you can currently buy it on amazon.com for $69.50.
Other features: This jumper has different height settings which is great so it grows with your baby. Also this is good if you have a smaller or larger baby.

Which Jumperoo Did I Buy?
Actually I didn't buy any of the jumperoos or jumpers featured. I bough an older make of Fisher Price jumperoo from ebay which was the Fisher Price Ocean Wonders Jumperoo. The reason I bought this jumperoo is that I got a good price for a brand new version on ebay and I kept getting outbid for what was my then first choice of the Fisher Price Rainforest Jumperoo. My 4 month old baby loves the Ocean Wonders jumperoo and all its features and toys. However, if I were to buy it again I would definitely consider a model that becomes nested or folds away as the jumperoo we purchased doesn't do that and it does take up a lot of room.
