 Wonderful mobile!! September 27, 2008
I didn't have a mobile with my first two girls, but when my son was born I was given a gift certificate and decided to buy this with it -- I'm SO happy I did!! He loves it!! The light show is spectacular, the music is soothing, and the fish are adorable. I can turn this on if my son wakes in the middle of the night and he'll usually quiet right down and fall back asleep -- now that alone is priceless!! He also likes to push on the soft "bubble" thing that has a fish inside -- I'm glad that doesn't activate the music and lights or we'd be kept up at night!! I've never had a problem with the music/lights not staying on long enough -- it seems to be the perfect length to settle him down.
My only minor complaints is that it does go through batteries fast (investing in a battery charger and re-chargeable batteries isn't such a bad idea) -- but honestly I have owned this for 3 months and changed batteries twice. So, it's just a minor annoyance, nothing terrible. Secondly, I really haven't used the remote much because the sensor on the mobile has to be in plain sight for the remote to work and I don't like the way it looks on my crib turned that direction, so I pretty much don't use it at all. Not a big deal -- I'm not constantly turning it back on, so I really don't need the remote.
Overall, I'm extremely happy with this product and I highly recommend it!
Best one on the market September 26, 2008
Love the music, very soothing. My son has loved it since the day it was purchased when he was 2 months. He is now 25 months and it sits on the nightstand next to his bed. He listens to the music every night when he goes to sleep and will get up and turn it back on if it stops before he has fallen asleep. Also being battery operated it stays playing for a lot longer than traditional mobiles and the batteries last for a long time. I would recommend this to everyone, my child loves it and the tunes are very soothing and not bothersome at all like some other mobiles and toys.
The perfect mobile! September 15, 2008
No words make justice to this FABULOUS mobile.
It reflects little fish in the ceiling, in a very soothing motion. It has a wonderful selection of music.
We bought it when I was pregnant with my son, and he is 2 years and 5 months and it still works!!
I don't think going to bed would be sooo easy without this mobile.
Don't trust the bad reviews, just because one unit leaked doesn't mean anything, just the one in a million defective. Mine works just fine still.
We are buying a second one.
 Pretty good September 3, 2008
My son wasn't very into this mobile until he was big enough to pull off all the fish. At that point we took it out of his crib because he could also pull down the whole mobile. However, my one month old daughter seems to love watching the fish, and the music puts her right to sleep. My husband and I find the music relaxing as well. It's plastic and therefore not as cute as some mobiles out there. It also seems to overwhelm the crib a bit, but we have a pretty basic crib from Ikea. We rewired it to plug into the wall, so I can't comment on battery life. Overall, it functions well, so I am pleased.
 Designed for babies... by babies July 27, 2008
We bought this mobile due to some of the same misconceptions expressed by other reviewers. Namely, we assumed that the little fish in the bubble would either light up or activate the mobile. It does neither and is utterly useless. By far the biggest gripe is the mounting bracket. It's seemed to be designed to only work on a prison-issue steel bar crib. Our crib is wood and the top rail is very modest in thickness (2.25"), but this mobile refuses to fit it and we had to resort to using bungee cords. A simple $15 mobile has the ability to adjust to fit different rail thicknesses. How can this mobile pass safety standards?! It's a huge project whenever we need to change the batteries. And who in their right mind designs a mobile where you have to take the whole thing down to replace batteries?!! It would make (slight) sense if the batteries can last the mobile for a month or more. But ours last maybe a week, tops. I really wanted to return it but my wife likes the "light show" feature. I have to admit that's pretty neat but a real battery hog. Another problem is the lack of a user-controlled timer or a "constant on" switch. Our child takes a while to fall asleep and we find ourselves constantly having to re-activate the mobile using the remote (when it worked). Which brings us to yet another complaint: the remote doesn't always work, even if you point it straight at the "sensor dome" one foot away. Sometimes it's easier to just reach over and hit the actual button. An interesting side note is that the remote for our compact stereo actually works on this mobile better than its own remote. I doubt we'll keep this mobile past the point where it will be used on a dresser top. But even if we do, I doubt it would work well anyway. The arm of the mobile is simply too short to make it work. It would not reach into the crib far enough to be useful. I had tried this configuration when we found that it won't attach to the crib rail. The spinning fishes don't venture far enough into the crib's airspace to make them useful. Once again, the light show would be its only saving grace. There are far better mobiles out there for the price. I just wish we'd found them before this one. Shame on Fisher-Price on such a crappy product. It's got great ideas but the execution is juvenile at best.
