I got this as a gift with my first child. It was a LIFESAVER. My daughter absolutely loved it. She would sit in it before she was mobile, entertained by the toys, she'd run laps around it when she was old enough to move and played with the table once she outgrew the seat. It's one of those rare toys that truly grows with the child. I held on to it, and my 2 boys also loved it. It became my kids happy place. They kept themselves entertained, and I could get other things done. It's very sturdy, l asted through 3 very active kids. Every baby that came over to visit would use it and LOVED it. I'd say that the value of this toy is incredible. For moms out there that know how valuable it is to find something that truly keeps your kids entertained and distracted enough to get your things done...this is it! I recommend this to all my friends with new babies. I can't say enough good things about this!

We used this at our day care center, and every one of those 15 babies were crazy about it. Solid and endless fun. Great for coordination, leg strength [...]

The Around We Go is fantastic! Easy to assmeble and so many toys for my daughter to play with! I also love the fact that the chair detaches so she can use it even after she is walking on her own!

No doubt--I am still sane because of this toy.My son adored it. He played with it from 4 months, when he couldn't even move the little seat around, until about 11 months when he started walking. The toys on the table kept him entertained through all of those changing months--at first he loved to chew on the butterflies, then discovered how to make the bugs spin, then how to mash the frog, then how to play the piano. He was enthralled, often for over an hour. When I needed to get ready in the mo rning, or make dinner, it was the only place I could put him where he would stay happy and active. He learned how to spin around to get to a toy he wanted, then how to crawl his little feet forward, until he was finally spinning around at breakneck speed and giggling the whole time. It's an original design, with the chair that spins around the table--so many other toys like this put the baby in the middle of a table, able to bounce but not walk. He LOVED being able to run around, and I'm absolutely sure it made him a more confidant walker. At the beginning, we used the "snack tray" to hold extra favorite toys for him to grasp, but then we switched to Cheerios, which he loved even more. Instead of putting him in a playpen, he was MUCH more engaged in his little table. Yes, it's big. But all of these toys are. Yes, it's a big hunk of plastic. Again, you find me something similar that isn't. I would have lost my mind without this toy, no doubt. Best toy purchase we've made yet!

My daughter loves this activity station! We got it for her when she was about 6months old, at the time she couldn't touch the floor but could still play in it. I ended up putting it away for a few months cause she would hit her read on the toys. When we brought it back out she was soo excited. She can touch now and loves running around in circles! It does move a bit when she slams her back but I am always right there and have not had any problems. TOTALLY worth the money. Once she is walking we ll and doesn't need the seat we will use just the table part.

This is a great product for baby when in the seat ONLY! We purchased a few months ago. Now that my daughter is 8 months old and very active pulling herself up and trying to walk I thought I would take the seat off to let her pull herself up and play with the toys. Once the seat was taken off the product is very unsturdy. As soon as she went to pull herself up, then entrie thing started to tip over. Great product with seat only!

I bought this a couple months when my daughter was about 5 months old. She is now 7 1/2 months and is still very much enjoying this product. She's just now getting tall enough to effectively push the seat around the table and finds that highly amusing. I agree with other reviews that say the tray part seems like a waste of space, but I just threw some teething rings and a pacifier on the tray and she actually enjoys getting to that section and having something she can remove from the table and take with her. When she's done playing the rings and pacifier go back to the tray for the next time. I debated between many products but ended up going with this one because it can become a stand alone table later, and I can't wait for the day that she has a little sibling to chase her around the table!!! Definitely happy with my decision and so is my daughter. :-)
