When did you stop using the insert? We have one and can't decide when the stop, our girls are about 10 lbs. The vinyl seems much less comfortable...

I used it up until her head no longer fits inside the pillow. But that was around the time she started sitting up. Which is when you have to stop using it anyways.

Our son loved his mamaroo then one day hated it!!! Took the insert out a few days later and he loved it again, he was being smushed! Maybe 11-13lbs, she'll probably let you know.

Hi! I use bum genius organic all in one. These inserts are great. They seem big initially. U cant place it between the two inner linings but u can lay it on top and the diaper can contain it. Its pretty much the diameter of the entire diaper and is a touch longer but I prefer that because sometimes the snaps on the diaper roll in and pushes on babys belly so this is a nice cushion. I made it work and it keeps baby dry at night. A little bulk y for daytime use though.

When my son was just starting to learn to sit up, he slumped to the side too. He did better when I set the seat up straighter and attached the tray. I also grabbed our insert from our mama roo and it fit perfectly! Plus looked cute. But I'm sure the Britax insert would work too.

We have found a resent problem with this frame. It has bent on the side where my 110 pound boy and his friend sat to play vidieo games. I am looking st various solutions to shore up the frame and mske it stronger. I bought this frame because the trendle bed we already had would fit below.

It feels pretty sturdy however I only used it for a month but my daughter was 10lbs when I moved her from it to a crib, I would have been comfortable with her continuing to sleep in it had I not wanted her to get use to her crib.

It was very comfortable at first, but now Im waking up with my back hurting (but maybe thats just me). Im about 180lbs and within a week it developed an indent that hasn't gone away.

Hi .We have been using ours for 2 months now but it seems to be fine. I noticed that if you extend it too much then it is going to weaken in the middle. The tubes have to be inserted at least 2 inches. Oooo.....and no heavy clothes. It cannot hold the weight.

I've had this mattress for 13 months. I also bought one for my daughter at the same time. They've both held up beautifully. Just like any other mattress...might be sturdier even. I don't know if it would make a difference on size and weight...my teenage daughter and I are both 5'7" and 140 lbs.

My daughter is a little heavier, but we've had the same problem. It doesn't seem to be very firm. Need to purchase a crib mattress for our son and will not be getting this one again.

Got mine August 2012 and it's ... failing. I completely turn it every month, it's under a mattress pad, I weigh about 120, but it's developed "cracks" and where my hips are (yes, I know laying down your hips are the heaviest area), it's really kind of "crushed". I loved this SO much - fibro, herniated L4-5 with recurring sciatica, arthritis but now I have to think about trying to scrape up money to get a new topper and I'm not sure I want to get another of this one. Mine hasn't lasted a year and it's just me and occasionally my cat.

We used this with our 8 yr old, 50lb daughter this past summer. I think it is more of a weight issue. It is a bit of a drag behind you.

My wife and I together weigh 325 lbs, and it seemed just fine, in an initial 'tryout'. This is the third AeroBed I have owned over the years, and at one point in my life I weighed 270, and it was ok, but in time a slow leak developed in the 'pump' location. I prefer a firm feel, and I may have over-inflated the mattress! If you have any 'heft' at all, I think you made a good choice with Aerobed.

Yes, I used it for my newborn with the insert. Now at 8 months were still using. I think she'll be out of it by a year. I am very happy with my purchase.

I personally used both the duo wrap and diaper covers do not come with inserts, the cover has a smaller weight range than the duo wrap because the duo wrap has bottons (as well as the Velcro) to make it bigger as you need it

It looks like this thread died. Does anyone out there have suggestions on how to deflate and roll this? I'm a single female weighing about 130 pounds and I've had no success. I have sat on it, stood on it, lain on it, squeezed it, put cement blocks on the ends... nothing is working. Help!

Lol! I hadn't noticed but I feel like my baby was completely safe when she was smaller. She is 14 months now and I have been using it since she was 9 months about 3 days a week. She can climb out of it now and it tips so maybe that's why? Sorry I couldn't be more help.

God love you. Same thing happened to me. I bought the 11" memory foam. Only one person mentioned that the mattress was very firm and that was unfortunately after I purchased it. Damn thing kept getting harder, and I kept buying more foam toppers for comfort. Fortunately, my mom needed a new mattress and she has to have very firm. I gave her the hard 11" and ordered an 8" pressure relief memory foam and I love it. Feels so good to sleep on my side and not wake up hurting! So forget trying to "fix" that hard mattress and just get another one. You will quickly forget about the money you threw away! God love you. Same thing happened to me. I bought the 11" memory foam.
