Toys and Games Reviews of Boppy 5-in-1 FunCustomer Review: BOPPY GOOD, BUT 5-IN-1 BOPPY A DISASTER !!! Summary: 1 Stars
I got this after having a simple Boppy pillow for me to use for my son when I fed him. The original simple boppy was great. I used it all the time to feed him since he ate for the first few months almost hourly (you moms know what I am talking about)... and my poor arms and back would get tired and sore from holding him, plus sometimes I was sooo tired during those 3, 4, or 6 a.m. feedings it was great to have something to support his weight for me.
Anyways, I then got this Boppy 5-in-1 Gym for him to play with. It was a disaster as every time he played with it the little loops and hooks that held it together would come undone and the whole "gym"/toy bars would come crashing down on him. He would get hit in the head or face Every Time! After several attempts to try to get them to stay and make them safer, I gave up. The boppy part worked great (after I took the bars off and used it as a second boppy for feeding) and the toys definitely caught his attention but it kept falling apart and hurting him so the use of it as a 5-in-1 toy/play-thing made it's purchase a waste. Also, whenever I would use the boppy to prop my baby up (like the 5-in-1 suggests) he would just either slide down it with his neck bent in a bad way, roll completely off it, or would get wedged into it wrong. It did not support him as it should of and the scariest thing was when he slid on his stomach (laying across the boppy propped up) face down into it and couldn't breathe!
Since I had such a good experience with the original boppy I thought I'd be loyal and take this "bad unit" back to the store and get it exchanged for a new 5-in-1 (after all I was still under my 30 days purchased time for store return)... perhaps the one I had gotten was defective. I was Soooo wrong. The second Boppy 5-in-1 I bought did the same exact thing. Do your baby a favor and go and get another toy for a play mat and an original boppy for you (it'll save you arms and back from the strain during feeding time). I got rid of my Boppy 5-in-1 for my baby's safety... and I did watch him all the time in it. Imagine what could of happened if I had ever left for even just a momment. It looks very cute (comes in sooo many patterns), and is very inexpensive, but it is not quality safety planning on the company's part.
Incidentaly, I did find a play mat (very nice cloth one my son loves - - - still and he's now 3 1/2) that has bright colors, baby safe mirror, and toys on it that is very safe that is made by fischer-price for just around $20, and they still sell it. It is a simple looking cloth play mat that baby either sits on or lays on but it is very entertaining and several kids I introduced to it for play over the years still like it deespite getting to be up to 2 or 3 years old. It is also easy to clean... just throw in the washing machine and hang it up to dry. It is great and I will be using it with the baby I am currently expecting... and an original, simple boppy for feeding.
Description of Boppy 5-in-1 FunThis deluxe Boppy is better for playtime than ever, because an activity arch stocked with award-winning Sassy development toys has been added. Boppy 5-in-1 Fun keeps baby entertained as she works on important motor skills. So baby can play, lie down, and sit, all with the comfort and support of America's favorite nursing pillow. The bold contrasts of the black, white, and red fabrics help stimulate baby's visual development. Six Boppy toy links allow you to transfer toys, making it constantly new and interesting for baby. The gym's soft quilt features a conversion feature with attachment points so toys can be rearranged for laying and tummy-time play. When baby begins to crawl, the gym converts to a crawl-through play space. In crawl-through mode, your infant can play peek-a-boo through the soft mesh sides and parents can attach more toys for added fun. No ordinary Boppy (which is already quite extraordinary), this five-in-one version of the popular nursing pillow comes with its own activity arch that hooks on to four clips on the base of the pillow. The pillow itself is made of hypoallergenic, 100 percent cotton and can be used just like a standard Boppy pillow--for nursing, helping baby sit up during playtime, and as a cozy pillow for lying on. With nine fabric loops, detachable plastic clips, and room for up to six Sassy development toys, the black-and-white activity arch adds an additional level of visual stimulation for little ones. The Boppy comes with three colorful Sassy toys, but you can easily add additional toys to the arch or change their positions to keep baby interested. The Boppy 5-in-1 Fun pillow is machine washable. --Chris Burns
