Is it better than classic animal rocker? I bought a cute plush elephant rocker for my 11-month old twin sons and they both love it. They cry when it is brother's turn. I am thinking of buying another rocker. Is this zebra any better than the classic rocking animal? It does not look very attractive to me and I was not impressed by watching video.

My daughter LOVES it and has since she got it for Christmas when she was one and now she's almost 3. They can bounce and/or spin and she goes back to this toy more than any other. Hope this helps! Get one at walmart so you can take it back if they don't like it!

We own this (and LOVE it) and we also own a classic white wooden rocking horse as well. This toy has definitely gotten more use than the traditional rocker- my kids (boy & girl) definitely prefer it.

I'm looking into getting this one with the 2 wheels in the BACK instead of the 2 wheels in the front like the Radio Flyer. We had a Radio Flyer one and I threw it in the garbage. It was impossible to steer so since the scooter wouldn't steer my children would lean into a turn causing the stupid thing to turn over. Every time! I had a 7, 5 and 2 year old all get hurt on the Radio Flyer one. My older kids love the regular razor so looking into this one for my 2 year old

I agree with other posters--this version is very soft and fuzzy and washes very well. Also, my baby really liked the detachable rattle toy and had no issues with head malformations. I never actually used the plain RNP, but did see it in person at BRU. I did not like the material, colors or feel as much.

I'm not sure why it has the picture with the open front? The beds we purchased were the picture with the headboard/footboard/siderails.We bought two of these for our twins. They were 18months and now just turned two this week. Perfect to transition from crip to toddler bed. We like the side rails so they won't fall off. The boys love them.

In my personal opinion the original is better. The mini seems flimsy compared to the original and as the name suggests it is indeed mini. The original can be used longer because it is larger, the mini is best for smaller and much younger babies. Our original still fits our 7 month old who is 22lbs and in size 12 month clothing; she still has room to spare. That said however, if you have very limited space the small is the second best option. I feel the mini still offers a good option, I would have purchased the mini had the original not been available. The original is slightly smaller than a play pen, and can be used as such.

Can't say as I only ever had the one. I imagine the newer vibrating version just has that added feature to enchance it and whether or not that is useful depends on the baby - I had a vibrating bassinet and a vibrating bouncer but my infant didn't like either one - loved the angle of the rock n' play and didn't matter to him that it didn't vibrate. Aside from the portability and upright angle what I liked most about the snuggabunny version was the plush fabric - very snuggly.

I am sorry this is a very late response and I'm not familiar with that other brand, but I can say that a very active two year old has put that truck through its paces and it still looks practically new. And it's still his favorite toy. We are very satisfied.

Really no age limit. I bought the tiger last year for my 4 year old grandson and I bought the zebra this year for my 18 year old niece, she was decorating her room in a zebra pattern, she loved it. We all still love toys right?

The face is pretty much the same, think it depends on the angle it's taken at. The hair tends to mat a bit, like it needs a bit of oil to keep it down. I'm going to try some baby oil. The arms & legs are thinner than what I think they should be, more like preemie age. . The picture makes them look fatter. The head is not in keeping, agewise, with the arms & legs. This isn't a toy though, and Ashton Drake site makes that clear.

Not the same as a rocking horse in that it only moves forward. It also doesn't turn making one only able to go in one direction. Also to make it move the child has to push on it up and down. You can adjust how much effort it takes to make it move.

I am also wondering which one to buy for my 19 month old little girl.There's only a $10 price difference. I want to know which one she will enjoy the most and actually use.

We got this shortly after our daughter's 1 year birthday and although she was still too young to really make it rock on her own, she still enjoyed when we sat her on it and helped her rock a bit. She also loved pointing out the horse's features like the large, glossy eyes and the leathery ears at first! Now, at 19 months, she climbs onto it by herself like its nothing and can rock wildly. :) I very much recommend getting it, even if your son is too young right now to fully use it by himself. He will get familiar with it and before you know it, he will be riding the rocking horse by himself.

I will have to ask my husband regarding the "facts" question. However, I must admit that I'm not sure I would buy this toy for my 4 year old son again. It's difficult for it to transform. My husband has to do it ever time. And it doesn't really move on it's own. Just says things every now and then. And they are somewhat difficult to turn off. If you have any of the other Switch N Go Dinos - in comparison, this one fails. It's much more flimsy, etc. I know it's a spendy purchase. My son wanted Jagger too, but I convinced him to go a different route. He just doesn't play with it all that often. I will have to ask my husband regarding the "facts" question.

I had both with my first child, and decided to get rid of the cosleeper the second time around. I liked the look better, but it was MUCH LESS useful. My first child used the pack n play until he was 2 years old when he moved onto a floor futon. This time around I'm also going to use the Phil and Teds travel bed. It only weighs 6 lbs (vs. 30) and it has a zipper on one side so the child can get in out of bed unassisted.

I think the only difference is design colors and characters - they both have same interactive content. I have the musical table and it's the best toy I've ever bought for my son who is now 1 year old. Great for them to balance on when they first get vertical and tons of music buttons to play with - highly recommend.

Personally my now 20month old likes sitting beside his brothers, who are 4 and 8years old, and trying to put these together. It is a very open ended toy. It doesn't matter what they build with them. I think they are well worth the $. They are well made and I believe even parents get a kick of seeing what they can made - no exposed magnets (it is all enclosed). The magnets don't repel each other either. I envision Magformers being a life long toy for my boys. You won't be sorry on your purchase - we now have several sets so check which set is best for the number of pieces. Boys or girls it doesn't matter and any age group too.

I've used the old version and it can definitely tip over if kids are playing inside. When we used them for the first time, my kids were so excited that they kept tipping them over, but they quickly accepted they were for sleeping and didn't have any problems while sleeping. I thinking it depends on your kids' temperaments whether or not this is a good purchase for you. I think they're much more convenient than pack n plays.
