Chandra from Seattle, WA  July 3rd, 2008 Our 6-month old makes great use of this item. She's just starting with solids and not fully sitting up on her own yet so being able to attach this tray to the bumbo is a huge help. We've avoided crowding our kitchen with a huge high chair for a few more months.
We actually have no problem putting her in the bumbo and then popping the tray right on. It literally takes two seconds. I would suggest to the previous reviewer that maybe they try using it on the carpet instead of the floor as it makes sliding the bottom part of the tray under the bumbo really easy. They are correct that you really can't put baby in or take out after tray is attached but we and our nanny have not problems getting the tray on and off in a flash.
Then again, if your baby doesn't like the bumbo, they won't like the bumbo with the tray. Our baby is fine as long as she has something to do (watch us doing "interesting" things or toys to play with). The tray keeps her from constantly bending forward to look for things on the ground during meal-time and she likes to pound on it with her hand.
Two notes, 1) follow assembly instructions, push hard and make sure the two pieces of the tray snap together, there are two little notches that pop into place 2) I have no idea if this is BPA free, been meaning to email the manufacturer. Realized after the fact that it would be relevant. Maybe BabyEarth knows?
