Fisher-Price Precious Planet 2-in-1 Projection Mobile, Multicolor

I bought this as a replacement for an old mobile to which we lost the parts after my older child took it apart. I've been extremely impressed with it in the past month. I've turned it on (with the lights) at least once or twice every night, and the batteries are still going strong. The remote is extremely handy; although you need to have line of sight between it and the player. Our baby's crib is still in our bedroom, so that's not a problem. I find it extremely convenient that when she wakes up fussing, I can just turn this on without leaving bed, and wait a few minutes to see if she'll go back to sleep, or if she needs to be fed. Sometimes, I get to enjoy listening to her giggle at it! The volume on the music is also very loud in a good way (it has two settings, but we use the louder one to provide more cover of our own noises). A few drawbacks (and they're minor): There's no easy way to turn it off from the actual mobile. Pressing the button again just resets the timer. The remote does have this option, though. It's only been an issue when I've laid her down and she makes it clear she's not ready for bed, then I have to turn the switch off and back on. The mobile goes into a sleep mode (I'm not sure of the timeframe) and the remote won't work. If I don't plan on turning it on when I put the baby to sleep, I still manually turn it on real quick while I'm getting her changed and use the remote to turn it off again, otherwise I won't be able to use the remote in the middle of the night. The mobile itself is very tall, so just check the clearance for where you plan to install it. We didn't have any problems, but it's probably a good 1.5' above the crib, and the install system doesn't let you move it any lower. It's beneficial to us, because it makes it easier to slide the baby underneath it without a problem. I haven't used it yet without the mobile, but the picture display is very bright on the mobile itself, so I'm pretty confident it will work well on the ceiling above the baby as well. I bought this as an early Christmas present for the baby, but it's really been more of a Christmas present to myself!

I love this mobile!. The music lasts 20 minutes and then you have a handy remote to start it up again if you want it to go longer without having to go in and disturb the baby. My baby got boared really easy so we tried this one because it has a light show and she loves lights. It was a hit! I also like that in addition to the music options there is a heartbeat option which really helps my baby go to sleep. So for play I put it on the music and then for bedtime I put it on the heartbeat. Its also great that there is the option to have just the sound on and hte mobile and lights off which is great for bedtime. What I didnt like is the characters dont hang down very far to keep the babies interest. We ended up swapping them out with the characters from the old mobile that we didnt like that had longer strings. The nice thing is the way this mobile holds them in you could pretty much use characters from any mobile. The other problem we had is the plastic part that is the adjustor to make it tight to the crib broke and I was annoyed to find out that it isnt a replacement part. When I called fisherprice about it they sent me a return label to return it to them for full refund no receipt or box needed! So we got a brand new one. Fisherprice customer service was great to deal with. They didnt give me any hassle at all.

i got this projection mobile as I wanted something that would help my son get entertained in the crib as he would hate to get into the crib during day time for his naps but also help him fall asleep without me. This was the perfect mobile as he likes to look at the lights and the projection of the animals. Also my son loves to talk to the animals and the fall asleep by himself. He has started taking afternoon naps in his crib which helps as he able to sleep longer. 1/21/11 I have used this mobile for 3 months and still love it. My son loves to talk to his animals, coos and laughs when he wakes up instead of crying. He falls asleep in his crib listening to the music and watching the animals. I wish I had got this mobile earlier when he was born. Pros 1. Good and relaxing music for baby. 2. Projection feature very unique 3. Has the option to have the music, heartbeat or 3 different nature sounds. 4. Has a remote so you don't have to disturb the baby if it stops. 5. Has option for music only, music and rotation and music, rotation and light. Cons 1. Remote does not work if its not in direct line of sight. 2. Could have off switch to turn off the music rather than using the remote or turn off the entire mobile. 3. Requires 4D batteries and if used for 2 times a day for 20 min it lasts for one and half month.

This is a pretty good mobile with unique features and some minor annoyances. Overall, the build quality is good. The hanging toys are cute, fairly well made and are comparable to the Kaloo wooden mobile that we used as well. The music/sounds are typical of other plastic battery powered toys, which means annoying. The very best thing about this mobile is the remote control, meaning no need to get up to turn it on or off if your child is sleeping in the same room. Another bonus is that the top section can be removed once the child is older, and you are still left with a music box & projector. Speaking of which, the projector is great idea, but I wish that speed on it could be controlled. When operating with new batteries, the image spins quite fast, to the point of being uncomftorable to look at. With regular use, we needed to change batteries every 2-3 months. Attaching and detaching the mobile is easy, but due to the design, might be a challange if the crib's rails are not straight.

Bought this item after reading online reviews that it is one of the best cot mobiles. However, after assembly of the cot mobile (which was not an easy task) the sound was so muffled and low that it made no impact on my 4 month old twin baby girls. I filed a claim for refund and pronto I got another piece of the same got mobile within a day or two. This is despite the fact that I specifically asked for a refund and return of the product. I once again assembled the product in the hope that may be the first piece was defective but there was only a marginal improvement in terms of the quality of the sound. The motor of the cot mobile is louder than the music. Further the other two sounds options of nature and heartbeat are not audible at all. I have since filed another claim for refund and return and have not heard from either the Amazon team or the seller. This has been a complete rip off and I have been forced to write this review so as to make my complaint be heard at the customer care of Amazon, iBhejo and Fisher Price ... please return my money and take this product back!!!!!

Auch wenn alles aus Plastik ist, kommt es bei unserer Kleinen bestens an. Die Tierchen sind zwar aus Textil aber auch eben alles aus Kunststofffasern. In den Mund nehmen sollte das Kind deshalb die Tiere nicht, die sind am Mobile besser aufgehoben. Ansonsten finde ich die Musikauswahl gelungen. Herzschlag, Meeresrauschen oder Klassik. Unsere Kleine liegt immer "am Strand" denn das Meeresrauschen ist eingach nur genial. Ist sie mal wacher kommt die Projektion zum Einsatz und dann liegt sie einfach nur staunend in ihrem Bettchen und ist ganz ergriffen vom "Babykino". Die Fernbedienung ist bei uns nie im Einsatz von daher etwas sinnlos in meinen Augen. Es mag Situationen bei Eltern geben wo dies bedingt zum Einsatz kommen mag. Die Geräuschentwicklung der drehenden Teile geht voll ind Ordnung. Manch aufziehbares Spieluhrwerk knattert lauter daher. Die Batterien halten beim nur abendlichen Einsatz ca. einen Monat. Man sollte auch darauf achten, dass man das Gerät bei Nichtgebrauch auch ganz abschaltet sonst sind die Batterien im Standbymodus entsprechend schnell erschöpft. Da der Kosten-Nutzen-Faktor in unserem Fall stimmt gebe ich die vollen 5 Punkte.

My baby loves it! Nice calming light. The music has two volume options but both are low. We never use the lower volume option because then it is so low, it can hardly be heard. We like the fact that the volume is low as it is more calming for the baby and doesn't disturb other people around. When my baby needs to sleep, I use the option of music only without the light or moving toys. Because when the lights and movements are on my baby is too curious and has to keep his eyes open, so can't fall asleep. There is also the option for the sound to be a nature sound, which has a calming effect and helps the baby fall asleep. A third option is the sound of the heartbeat as it is heard at prenatal checkups. It is cute that it has this option although my baby prefers the music or nature sound.

This is a must buy for a new baby! Main three functions are: - music: two sound level settings. Three types of music: heart beat (like mums heart beat), nature (either waterfall or tropical rainforest), music (mozart, bach etc) -light show; rotating images of animals on a dome. Dome can be removed and the projector projects on to other surfaces - rotating mobile - includes 4 animals of high quality - crocodile, bear, whale and lion Very good faulty, 5 minutes to set-up. Includes remote as well with a single button which you press and it starts up from where it left off. The mobile has auto-tut off after 20 minutes which is good to save battery. Takes 4 x D side batteries and 2 x AA for the remote. The mobile is a bit expensive and cheaper from abroad but not many places sell this anymore and if you can get your hands on it, I would. And get it from birth - the lights are amazing when the room lights are off!
