Customer reviews for Safety 1st Bob-and-Twist Activity Center, Choose Color forGood activity center with lots to explore
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Safety 1st Bob-and-Twist Activity Center was very easy to put together in under 30 minutes. It has a variety of different toys that my 6 month old enjoyed looking at and playing with, especially the spinning rattle. It takes up a pretty big footprint in the room but with the multitude of things to play with, it kept the attention of the baby for the entire time he was in the center. Once he figured out he could jump, it made the activity center even more appealing to him. One of my favorite features is the removable/washable seat, making it a breeze to clean, as well as the soft color palette. One complaint I have is that the buttons to make the music play are somewhat difficult to press. The baby can't do it on his own but he stares at the blue lights once I press them. It also seems like the recommended height with toes on the floor but not a flat foot does put some strain on baby's hips so we limit time spent in the activity center to 15-20 minutes per session. Overall, this is a good activity center option to keep baby entertained with independent play for a while. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this activity center for my little one to test and review!

Safety 1st Bob and Twist for the win
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This safety 1st Bob And Twist activity center overall has become my son’s favorite play time accessory. The overall design of this activity center appeals to me not only because it is very sturdy and I feel my son is very safe in it but it provides much more height than others we have used. My son is very tall for his age and we have used other similar systems that were unable to provide him the length needed to really stand and get a good fun jump session in. I love the toy variety because I feel that is age appropriate for kids as young as 4 months until they outgrow it. There are both simple reach and feel items as well as fine motor practice and a Musical easy to activate piano piece. Currently my son’s favorite is the bead slide where he can move the objects from side to side on both a straight path option and one that has waves. He is also equally enthralled with the spinning dome with beads inside that are noise making and encourage problem solving. This activity center is set up in our living room where it stays and is used multiple times throughout the day. He can not only play by himself in it but it allows for us to engage and play with him while in it. The one con that I could say about this center is that it is a wider base than some of the other similar styles so if you are very limited on space it may feel “too big” however we have found that the added stability and height to grow out weighs the drawback of it taking up a tad bit more room. Overall I highly recommend this as a parent but also from my son who finds it to be his favorite daily. I was given this activity center to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Safety First Bob and Twist Activity Center
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We received this product through the Stellar Product Testing Panel. We had high hopes for this bouncer but found it fell short in a few key areas. The weight limit of 25 pounds seemed low, especially since babies likely won’t use it until they have full head control. This means there’s a pretty narrow window for use. Additionally, the springs don’t offer much bounce. It’s more of a subtle movement than a true bouncer or jumper, which was disappointing for our active baby. The toy selection also left a bit to be desired. Our little one enjoyed the spinning clear cylinder with beads but lost interest fairly quickly. While the piano looked fun, its clear design made it less obvious that pressing the buttons would create sound. He loves his other piano but didn’t interact with this one the same way. Other toys, like the spinning animals and the wheel, weren’t intuitive enough for him to engage with, so they didn’t hold his attention. We placed the activity center in the middle of our main living space, hoping it would become a central play station. Unfortunately, our baby often crawled around it to get to his other toys instead. The feature we appreciated most was that the activity center allowed him to move himself around. For a very active baby, this mobility was appealing, but the limited bounce and lack of engaging toys meant it wasn’t as exciting as we had hoped. Overall, while this bouncer has some nice features, it didn’t quite meet our expectations. It might work better for less active babies, but for ours, it just wasn’t engaging enough to compete with his other toys and activity stations.

My son has the best giggles in this
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WOW! This activity center is a new favorite thing to do for my 9-month-old son. He has a doorway jumper at the grandparents house but this Safety 1st Bob-and-Twist™ Activity Center is far superior! He realized quickly that he can jump and turn in this Safety 1st and has a grand time. It is well-engineered to grow with your baby (up to 25 lbs). The seat part is high quality with a lot of depth. He loves to look up at the two plush toys when he jumps. He engages with each toy at the tray level, especially moving the beads across their track. The makers of this really put a lot of thought into the toys being engaging for little ones and are right for the age. It has a good color palette for all tastes. The one thing I will note that is not spectacular is the music, the tune is short and has a somber tone vs. being upbeat like jumping is. Really, didn't need to put batteries into that - the two figurines around the piano are fun enough. This is the now go-to place to put him when I am making dinner or carrying laundry upstairs, I know he is safe in it and always very happy. We have it right in the center of our house. It is super easy to move somewhere with two hands and it does collapse down easily like it says, just three legs to pop out. I think we will take it with us when we travel by car for the holidays so that I know he will have a place to go that is baby safe. Highly recommend. Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this activity center.

Hours of fun
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am so thankful that I was able to test the Safety 1st Bob-and-Twist™ Activity Center thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel. My son is 8 months old and has been having the time of his life playing in the activity center. I love the extra straps that were added to the connectors that allows additional toys to be added for the baby to play with. The seat feels very sturdy and I have zero safety concerns. It was very easy to assemble, and I had it up and running within five minutes. The ability for my son to spin his seat and play with different toys when he wanted kept him entertained. His favorite toy was the singing piano and he would often dance and bounce to the music. I keep this in our living room and it’s used daily but he never gets bored. I would recommend this activity center to anyone with a baby. It’s safe and fun all in one. I also give it bonus points for the ease of cleaning! My son has horrible reflux and we have been able to clean this up with no problem. 10/10 stars!!

Baby is Happy and Occupied
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, this Activity Center was a big hit with my 8 month old. Here are the pros and cons: Pros - This thing has many toys that kept her attention on them instead of being anxious that she wasn’t at my hip — amazing! Her favorite toys so far are the spinner noisemaker and the wheel. - The way that it allows her to bounce and she feels like she’s airborne is different than any bouncer I’ve had so far. I’d been afraid to get her the kind of bouncer that suspends from a doorway due to safety concerns but I feel this one does the job and keeps her safe. - The colors are nice neutrals while still having colors that catch her eye. - Relatively easy to wipe down and clean. Cons - We have the space so it wasn’t an issue for us but keep in mind the the footprint of this Activity Center. (See pics in front of standard doorway). We have it in our kitchen where most of the action is during the day and evening. My favorite thing about it is that it’s way more comfortable in this one than the other bouncer we had reused from my son’s younger years. Note that even my son was intrigued by this Activity Center! I received the product as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel in exchange for my fully honest review.

Lots of fun jumping
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter has a little activity table that she can stand in, but she constantly trying to jump in it as well, so I thought this would be a big hit and I was not disappointed. The first time I put her down in it, she was confused and then within 30 seconds, she had figured out how to bounce and now she would easily stay in there for an hour if I let her. She still likes to see me, but it means I can go do something on the other side of the room or in the kitchen while she bounces around. The toys around the edge are fun — she especially likes the little discs that move along the wire — but the best and most unique part of this is the jumping. It was mostly pretty easy to put it together. I needed an extra set of hands at one point to hold the seat while I attached everything. I was a little nervous about it at first, that something would snap and my daughter would fall, but the design seems very well thought out and very safe. I was totally comfortable once I saw how it fit together. I was given this activity center to try as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel.

Baby enjoys her Bob and Twist Activity Center
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thanks to the Stellar Product Testing Panel for providing me with this activity center! Our baby thoroughly enjoyed herself in it! We love how gender neutral the colors are! We have an 8 month old girl who is using it now, and a little boy on the way in a few months! It's a little big but this is common for bouncers like this. It isn't heavy and can be folded up for storage! Some of the toys are awesome, and kept our baby fully engaged! The bear and the mouse are a little pointless in my opinion. I wish they were able to spin easily or just do something more engaging. My daughter struggles to move them but they won't budge for her, lol. I also wish the piano was easier to engage. It looks like there are 3 sections to push, but it is only one and it is difficult to press, even for me. She enjoys moving the little trinkets on the white bar and trying to spin the yellow wheel but it doesn't move too easily unfortunately. My baby really loves the spinning clear plastic oval portion, that keeps her the most occupied. We keep the activity center in our living room, which is the perfect place for us to see her when we need to be busy in the kitchen. I love how the seat is more cushioned than our old bouncer and her walker. I also love that this bouncer is great for taller babies and that it is adjustable, affordable, and fun for our baby! It really keeps her engaged and entertained and I would highly recommend it to others!

Baby Approved
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Safety 1st Bob-and-Twist™ Activity Center is a nice product for parents looking for a safe place to put baby while we get some housework done. The color is really nice. I like that it has some colorful elements while still being tasteful so it's not a horrible eye sore in the house. It does not fit through doorways while fully assembled so just an FYI if you are wanting something that will go from room to room. The toys on the activity center are nice, but could use some small improvements. I like that the piano is not super loud and obnoxious, but I wish it had separate interactive piano keys. I also really like the bead maze thing, but it's a bit too close to the seat and my baby had a hard time pushing the beads aroundon the bottom section. I think the table saw looking toy could be fully replaced with something else. My baby wasn't interested in it and it could be a hazard if baby throws their head forward on it. The spinning toy with beads was her favorite and worked as intended! She REALLY wanted to pull the animals off and play with them so having them be removable would be nice. We mostly used the activity center in the living room so I could get some dishes done or work on dinner. My baby loved being able to bounce and turn around and see everything. She also kept falling asleep in it and I had to transfer her to her bed, so I'm going to say it is probably comfortable! Overall it's a pretty good activity center! My baby was happy being in it for a good amount of time so that's a win for me. *I received this product free as part of the Stellar Product Testing Panel
