This baby mobile is perhaps the best thing I have ever invested in. As a freshmen at Princeton, I was pretty nervous about starting college. However, I knew one of the ways I could bring my childhood and home with me was by decorating my room with a piece that evokes not only the playful and carefree nature of childhood, but also serves as a deep and penetrating metaphor for the ironic and misogynistic philosophies of many modern house cats. Ever since I was a youngin, I have been tortured by the heartless attitude that house cats have toward me. I felt that I would be lost if I didn’t continue to harbor my hatred of these creatures while exploring my collegiate interests and broadening my world view. Hanging this mobile in my dorm room has helped me to become an active global citizen, in my opinion. I have garnered the respect of many of my professors as well as the other students on my floor. I highly suggest that an parent endeavoring to educate and enlighten their child, regardless of age, buy this mobile and hang it directly about their pillow. It is the will of the forest nymphs that all children become enlightened. That is why I have this mobile, and why my parents were willing to pay many dollars to give me a gift that I love. I encourage you to do the same for your own child! You will not regret giving them this one of a kind opportunity.

I received this product today. It was a bit tedious to assemble (took me about 20 minutes) and is too heavy for the location I had originally hoped to put it in. I was unable to attach it to the back rail on my crib and had to instead put it on a lower side rail, which is fine until my infant gets to be a little more mobile, and then I will either have to lower the mattress to keep it out of his reach or remove it.
I would have packed it up and returned it all together, but when I put the baby in the crib to “show it to him”, he cooed, watched the animals, and fell right asleep. Since it was such a pain to put together I will probably keep it and just sell it when he gets too big for it to work.

I gave this product one-star mostly to get your attention. This product is wonderful, but only if you modify it by taking out the large flapping leaves.
Our first Rainforest Mobile lasted about 3 months before it stopped spinning/flapping. The songs still played, so I knew the batteries were okay (even replaced the batteries and the status remained the same). I called Fisher Price and had it replaced by the warranty. Fisher Price customer service was very kind and helpful, and I received the replacement within the 6-8 weeks they said it would take.
However, upon receiving the new mobile, I installed it with flapping leaves in place, and noticed that after only a few weeks the flapping leaves were slowing down, and mobile seemed to be struggling.
I took out the flapping leaves, and left the smaller leaves with bird/monkey/frog intact and the mobile now runs with no problems. We’ve had the newer mobile for 13 months, and have not needed to replace the batteries or call for help in all this time. We use it daily to put our 18-month old boy to sleep at night.
We do recommend this mobile, but only if used without the large flapping leaves that drain the motor.

Overall, this is a very nice mobile; however, it stopped working properly after just a couple months. Because of that fact, I would not recommend it.
Pluses
- My son quite likes it — not as much as the Haba Flutterbys mobile, but well enough. He was about two months when we got it and is five months now.
- The animals are bright and engaging.
- The rainforest sound is very pleasant.
Minuses
- Stopped working properly after maybe two months. It gets stuck and makes a grinding sound until I give it a push (defeating the purpose of having the mobile – to entertain my son for a few minutes so I can do something else). It is not the batteries.
- The classical music setting are pretty tinny – but my son still seems to like them OK.
