My brother was home at Christmas with his 6 month old girl and got this one: argos.co.uk/beta/static/Pro...

She absolutely loved it, lots to grab and spin, noises and it bounces. He said it was the best thing they got for her!

Most baby bouncers aren't for after the baby can sit up hence the 6 month age limit.

I got a door hanging bouncer which Niamh loved when she was little and once she outgrew that, I got a space saver jumperoo. Which she absolutely loves. It says for baby's up to wells, and Niamhy isn't that heavy at 8.5 months so we've got a bit longer to use it yet. ☺ she finds it hilarious when she bounces and it lights up and makes noises. Best thing I've bought to entrtain her. Xx

Fisher price actually do a bouncer that will last until they reach 18kg, so lasts a while! I bought a bouncer, but can't really say I used it much- but I did get a door bouncer & my little girl loved it! Still bounces everywhere at 2 years old 😂

I did find this bouncer, and order one actually! You can use till 18kgs as it becomes a toddler chair. I kinda took my time and she's already 2 months, and were abroad for 6weeks so we would have used it for 2months or so if it was till 6months. Will let you guys know if it's any good!

My son absolutely loved the baby bjorn baby bouncer, I cannot recommend it enough, and he used it until he was around 10 months I think. It's much more expensive than others, but it was his preferred toy/equipment for a long time, and he used it every day. It also saved me many times: he was a velcro baby (wanted to be held all the time) and the bouncer was the only place he would like to be for a few minutes on his own, so I used to bring him and the chair in the bathroom with me to take a shower everyday when he was between ~1-7 months.
