Frequently Asked Questions Bumbo Seats

1. When can my child start using the Bumbo?

The short answer is as soon as your baby can hold his or her head up without assistance. For some babies, this can be as young as 8 weeks, but it varies depending on the development of each individual baby.

2. Is there a weight limit on the Bumbo?

The Bumbo is recommended for children up to 22 pounds. In practical useage however, we have seen that there is not really a weight limit on the Bumbo, it is more of a size limit. We have seen special needs children comfortably using the Bumbo at 7 years old. Often it is a child's hips that become too wide for the Bumbo. Other times it is the child's thighs that outgrow the Bumbo. The bottom line is that as long as your child is comfortable in the Bumbo, they can use it. The Bumbo will not break. Of course, the larger and more developed your child is, the more likely it is they can get out of the Bumbo so remember to never leave your child unattended in the Bumbo Seat.

3. How secure is the Bumbo?

The Bumbo is as secure as the surface it sits on. It is very secure as long as it is used on a solid, level surface. The baby's weight actually helps hold it in the Bumbo. This is because of the Bumbo Seat's unique design that puts the baby's bottom slightly below the leg openings. Remember, the Bumbo is happiest on the floor.

4. Do you accept purchase orders?

Yes, we accept purchase orders from medical and school organizations. For more information see our purchase orders page.

5. Do you offer discount for multiples?

We offer free shipping (UPS Ground) when you order three or more Bumbos and have them all delivered to the same address. When you check out, just choose Free Shipping (3 or more Bumbos) as your shipping option. Many people ordering two Bumbo Seats find the third one an irresistible bargain. Depending on where you live, the free shipping could make the 3rd Bumbo Seat less than half price! Take note that you may need to click on the Recalculate button to make the Free Shipping (3 or more Bumbos) option appear in the shipping list.

9. Is the Bumbo Seat latex free?

10. Why doesn't the Bumbo need straps or fasteners?
