 Doesn't work properlyJul 04, 2010
By Elisabeth S

Well our baby likes it. He likes looking at it and listening to it. The problem is that it isn't reliable (and we have changed the batteries several times just to make sure).
The sound activation only works once, then we have to turn it off and on to get it started again.
It doesn't run for the set amount of minutes. Sometimes it runs for 5, sometimes for 40 minutes. And once in a while tha machine completely stops, starts and stops again whilst making clicking noises.
Overall it is quite cheaply made and very annoying that you need a screwdriver to change batteries and to put it on the floor as a toy.
And finally the sound of the machine itself is loud and annoying to us adults.
 My son Loves itMay 16, 2012
By Casey
When i first set it on the crib I didnt think it was going to be a hit. But there were feature I didnt know about. There is a setting that you can set to where it automatically turns on if the baby fusses or begins to cry which is nice. My baby 5mo LOVES it. he like to grab the little crinkly creatures and watch it. I do however think it is very loud(the turning/spinning mechanism), is almost louder than the music when it is turned down, but my son doesnt seem to mind so...
 Pro's outweigh the Con'sJun 17, 2011

- Strap to attach is brilliant, no matter the size of the crib this thing fits. I even attached it to the front of the headrest during a long road trip. We have a crib with thick molding and found it almost impossible to attach a traditional mobile or the Vtech - Soothe & Surprise Nature Light that someone bought us.
- My daughter LOVES it. She loves the continuous mode and the spin and play mode. It also helped her learn to reach and grab (she is developmentally behind physically)
- The back can be removed to turn it into a toy. This is a great toy to use during her physical therapy. She loves to grab the fish and spin it around.
Con's
- the motor is a little noisy, but we, including my daughter, don't mind it
- batteries die pretty quick(we have found this to be true for most all her batteries operated toys), especially when you use it every night. Now that we use it only 1-2 times per week, we don't change the batteries that often.
- The timer and sensor worked great at first, now not so much.
Honestly the most annoying thing is the battery life, but hey I think that batteries are just a part of raising a kid these days. Batteries are now our #1 shower gift. Duracell even sells a pack of batteries that comes with a mini screw driver. We keep the screwdriver in my daughter's room with her first aid/medical stuff and grandma sends batteries with any care package :)
Cry Activation Feature Doesn't Work & Batteries Die FastFeb 18, 2011
By NoBoysAllowed
I was so excited when I ordered this for my baby. It plays 40 minutes of music and it is supposed to be cry activated. When my baby cries, you CAN'T miss it! My baby has a seriously strong set of lungs. With that said, even on the most sensitive setting, this thing will NOT turn on to crying! I even tried "crying" like my baby would, right next to the thing, and nothing! I am so disappointed. I called Lamaze/Learning Curve customer service about this issue and they really could not help unless I paid to have the item shipped back to them for a replacement (which I won't because it's fairly heavy and shipping is expensive - going to avoid buying Lamaze products from now on). If you're buying this product for this feature, don't rely on it working! It also has a pretty loud motor, though that doesn't bother me as much, personally. Batteries last roughly five 40-minute plays, we went through one set of batteries in 36 hours. Overall, not the best purchase I've made.
UPDATE: Characters stopped spinning completely after two weeks of use. Since I'd just changed the batteries the previous day (the unit required daily battery changes) I thought they may have died again and put in fresh batteries. This did not fix the problem. Luckily Amazon took this item back for a refund, it was so horrible I don't want a replacement.
Great item...would only change one thing...Jan 11, 2011

My 5 month old loves this crib carousel! She watches the fish go round and round and loves the music on the sleep setting. The play setting is great too when I just want her to be occupied for a few minutes. LOVE that I can set the music on the sleep setting for 40 minutes! Only drawback is I wish I could turn the light off at night. The light stays on with the music and it's kinda bright for her. The motor sound that other people talked about, I noticed, but it doesn't bother us at all.
