Wonderful mobile, with a twist. Dec 16, 2007
By Thomas Pierce
"Tom Pierce"
I got this mobile for my 5 month old daughter. She loves it!
So do I. The balance of the two rods is easily adjusted by sliding the orange balls, the height of each rod can be adjusted by sliding them up and down on the strings, and the height of the "sun" on the top string can also be adjusted.
Two of the birds have squeakers in them (press to squeak) and all five are magnetically attached. This allows for them to be placed on any of the mobile's five strings, right-side-up or up-side-down, and even allows them to be stacked together.
The birds aren't small enough to be a chocking hazard, though, so they're safe for my girl to play with.
And... made in Germany (with stringent child-safety laws), not China.
All in all, well worth the price. I'm going to get her the Flutterflies mobile from Haba, next.

Surprisingly entertaining Nov 25, 2007
By LW

At 8 wks. my baby began noticing this mobile which I hung over the changing table. He is entranced by it and always smiles when I give the birds a little push to make them "fly" and twirl. They have a nice random movement instead of the predictable, boring spinning pattern that most mobiles have. The colors are bright and eye-catching and the birds are soft and detachable which he can hold and should work great at keeping him occupied while I change his diaper as he gets older. I don't miss the fact that it doesn't play music because he likes it so much! I highly recommend this and other Haba products.

Wonderful Mobile Feb 26, 2009
By J. Zimmerman

This is a wonderful mobile. I have had it up over my son's changing table from when he was born to now (five months). He absolutely loves it. It was probably a few weeks before he really noticed it, but he gets very excited when he sees it. Now that he is a little older, he also likes to hold a bird during diaper changes - which helps distract him from "helping" change his diaper.
Pluses
- easy to install and adjust
- birds come on and off very easily with the magnet attachments -- they seem safe for baby to hold and chew on
- you can put the birds on so their faces face the baby (a lot of mobiles don't allow this - the characters face up - nice for the parents, but boring for the baby
- both engaging for baby and aesthetically pleasing for parents
- seems well made
Minuses
- unless you have a drafty room, it doesn't move much on it's own -- it is fine above the changing table, because I can twitter it for my baby, but it wouldn't be that great to use where you wanted your baby to be able to entertain himself. I got a motorized mobile for above his crib.
- it is actually made in China, not Germany (just designed in Germany).
Highly recommended!

Excellent Mobile Jun 10, 2008
By K. Glaser

We received this mobile as a shower gift, and it is one of the most beautiful and interesting items we got! Our daughter is almost four months old and is intrigued by the random patterns of the colorful birds. Right now it is in our living room, and the other day she was sitting in her bouncy chair with the mobile behind her. She tried to look at the mobile by craning her head backwards to get a peek at it. If that doesn't demonstrate serious interest, I don't know what does.
My husband and I find ourselves fascinated by the mobile as well, especially when a fan is blown on it. On the one hand, it might be a result of the sleep deprivation, but I do think a lot of it has to do with the mobile just being that interesting to look at.

Wonderful product Oct 08, 2008
By Jenny Morber
This mobile is wonderful. It is made with high quality materials, and will never cost you batteries. My son has loved it since he was 2 months old. Every time he looks up at it he smiles one of his huge grins.
He likes it so much that we sometimes have to take the birds down so that he can nap, but it is very easy to take them down and put them back up again because they are magnetic. You can't go wrong buying this mobile.
