No batteries are necessary to make the Ergobaby Evolve Bouncer do its thing; a baby’s natural movement bounces the unit, but adults can manually bounce it for newborns, too. We love the slim profile and modern, high-end look of the Cybex Lemo Bouncer. It's ideal for small spaces, measuring 24 x 17.3 x 21.7 inches, and doesn't plug into an electrical outlet or require batteries—babies can bounce naturally by moving their bodies, or adults can lend a hand with manual bouncing. However, we need to note that the tag on the bouncer states babies can sleep in the bouncer, but the AAP and our experts advise against that. The company's warning manual also states the bouncer "is not intended for prolonged periods of sleeping." We, our experts, and the AAP do not recommend babies fall asleep in a bouncer due to the risk of suffocation and potential death. Baby Delight Alpine Wave Deluxe Bouncer: Our favorite feature of the Baby Delight Alpine Wave Deluxe is its portability. The bouncer folds flat, which is seamless, and stores under a couch with room to spare. Unfortunately, the seat cover is not removable, so you must spot clean messes. And the bouncer feels more flimsy than sturdy—we thought the bouncing feature needed to be more moderate. One of our editors used this bouncer when her child was a baby and said her little one fell out of the bouncer despite being strapped in properly.

The Ingenuity automatic bouncer is a sleek and straightforward to operate solution for keeping your baby safe and comfortable, with a patented technology, the bouncer can be stonishes organic baby matter with ease.

Best Ingenuity Baby Bouncer 2023

One of the standout features is the portability of this bouncer. It's lightweight and easy to move around the house, allowing me to keep an eye on my baby while getting things done. The compact design also means it doesn't take up much space, which is a major plus in our cozy living area. If you want a baby bouncer that blends with your nursery or home decor, the Childhome Evolux Bouncer is great. Its simplicity and wooden detail set it apart from other bouncers we tested. Our least favorite part of the bouncer is its assembly: It arrives in more than five pieces and they all require some assembly. For example, the frame pieces installed into the feet and the seat cover needed to be put on, which was the most complicated step. It took us several tries to get the cover on without looking at the manual first. Once we looked at the instructions (which are super straightforward), the step became much easier, with the secret being you need to angle the bouncer. Once fully assembled, the bouncer is solid and sturdy and doesn't wobble from side to side with or without its sandbag weight. Unfortunately, the Cybex Lemo does not fold for compact storage, but its slim design makes up for it. We carried the bouncer and a sandbag (one in each hand), and it always felt manageable. While not ideal for travel, it's a solid option for its simplicity and adaptability that grows with your child, allowing you to use it as long as possible at home or grandma and grandpa's house.

Following the incline test, we removed the sandbags from the bouncers and folded the units when possible. We looked for ease of use or difficulty, folded sizes, and if the bouncer was effortless to carry from one end of the lab to the other. Bright Starts Portable Baby Bouncer: Playful and interactive, this Bright Starts baby bouncer is full of fun, from its adorable designs to its removable toy bar. Sadly, the toy bar flew off during the stability test, and its large footprint isn’t ideal for small spaces. Moreover, we thought the bouncer moved too much across the floor (when bouncing) with and without the sandbag.I’ve had a few bouncers between my two babies and this one is by far the best. I got my current baby another more expensive one but she is way too small for it. I loved how this one accommodated her small size better in the other she fell over to the side.
