We got this for our 4 month old because he wasn't as happy in his bouncy seat as he used to be, and he liked to stand. It worked pretty well for the purpose of getting him upright. Now at 5 1/2 months, we all still love it because it's a stationary, safe place for us to put him and he loves standing up. It's super easy to set up and fold up, and the carrying bag works great. We recently took it on a trip and it worked great - it traveled well, and it gave us a safe alternative to laying him on the floor. The only criticism I have is that the cup holders are pointless other than perhaps being playthings (our son liked putting his hands in them).
