BabyBjorn Bouncer Bliss vs Maxi-Cosi Dove Pro Bouncer
Both seats bounce when your baby kicks. The Bliss folds to 11 cm thick. The Dove Pro adds a vibration setting that works even when your baby is still.
Specifications verified against manufacturer sources. Not hands-on testing.
Choose the Bliss for a slim fold or the Dove Pro for vibration
If you expect to carry the seat between rooms or pack it for visits, our pick is the Bliss. If you want to switch vibration on and off, pick the Dove Pro.
BabyBjörn Bliss for carrying and storage
The empty seat weighs 2.1 kg. Folded, it is 89 cm long, 39 cm wide and 11 cm thick. Those measurements make it easy to check the fit under a sofa or in a packed trunk.
Your baby’s movements provide the bounce. Pick the Bliss if that is all the motion you want.

Before you buy
Check the infant limit on your seat
Both manufacturers say to end bouncer use when your baby starts trying to sit up or reaches the infant weight limit, whichever comes first. BabyBjörn lists 20 lb (9 kg). Maxi-Cosi’s Canadian listing and manual give different pound limits. Check the label and instructions supplied with your Dove Pro. If they disagree, confirm with Maxi-Cosi before further use. [1][2][3]
Count toddler use separately
Keep the chair for later if your child outgrows the infant setting. For both models, chair mode begins once your child can walk and sit down independently. Reverse the fabric as directed. The Dove Pro guide also specifies the highest recline position for chair mode. [1][3]
