## Questions

**Which baby bouncer is easy to assemble?**

Baby Delight Highland Organic Portable Bouncer has the best record (12 of 12), followed by Bright Starts Jungle Vines Comfy Baby Bouncer (8 of 8). Ingenuity SmartBounce Automatic Bouncer (11 of 12) and Bright Starts Playful Paradise Vibrating Bouncer (11 of 12) each had one miss. These records rest on small groups of parents, so the order is a close call.

**Is the Ingenuity InLighten Baby Bouncer hard to put together?**

Some parents said so. Ingenuity InLighten Baby Bouncer has the weakest record here at 13 of 19, and 26% of its reviews mention hard setup. The most reviewers weighed in on it (19), so that is a bigger group than for the others.

**Is the Ingenuity SmartBounce easy to put together?**

Mostly, by the numbers: 11 of 12 parents who stated an outcome said it went together easily, though that is a small group.

**What if my baby falls asleep in the bouncer?**

A bouncer is not a sleep product. If your baby falls asleep in it, move them to a flat, firm crib or bassinet. Always use the harness, keep the bouncer on the floor (never on a table, counter, bed or sofa), stay close while your baby is in it, and follow the weight limit in the manual.
