Fisher Price makes a lot of toys. Maybe it's not surprising some of those toys and other products turn out to have problems ranging from minor to serious but many parents we hear from think the company could do a better job of dealing with the problems.

Besides the complaints in this section, be sure to check our Recalls Section for last-minute recalls.

I purchased the Tropical Rainforest Bounce not to long, maybe about a month ago and now the light or music will not play. My son eyes lights up with excitement, so I am very dissappointed that this item does not work anymore and I barely had it. Not really thinking because I expected this item to work I threw away the box and receipt and of course I am unable to return it.

My grandaughter, 5, was given the F-P Little Mommy all-in-one nursery center today, 11/7/09 by her great- grandmother. To my great dismay, the product is very difficult to put together, with very incomplete instructions, and with flimsy design and materials. I am shocked, as one who had collected F-P toys 20 years ago to find the quality of this set so poor. My grandaughter uses the F-P table and chairs that were bought for her mother 20 years ago. This is not going to be one of those toys that one will want to hold on to. I am thoroughly disapponted in F-P and the quality of this product.

I bought the fisher price bouncer green meadow. The metal legs stick out so bad that not only did I trip , all individuals on seperate occasions fell and tripped. I am surprised that there has not been a recall on this item. This is an accident waiting to be happened. I must say it is not one incident of tripping but multiple people tripped. My MOnther inlaw actually got her little tow brussed baddly as it got caught between the metal rod. My suggestion is please do not buy this item, we are stuck with it.

I returned all 4 side panels for my F-P recalled play yard to Fisher Price many months ago. In April they called me to inform me that they had received only 3 of the 4 panels. They asked for #4 panel which is obviously gone! I disagreed with them when they only offered me 75

When I called F-P today (8/18/09) they said that they had not mailed my refund as they were waiting for my OK! I still disagreed with their partial refund as even if I had only sent in 3 of the 4 panels, I had destroyed the play yard. They blamed the US government and said that they will send my check for 75 within 2 weeks now. I am unable to replace the play yard for the refund that they are sending me. It certainly does not seem fair to me.

I recently purchased a Fisher Price Rainforest Peek-a-boo Waterfall Soother. My baby really likes this item, unfortunatly I have found the batteries do not last longer than a week. After talking with others who have purchased this item I realized the soother I purchased is defective.

We have the fisher price chair the one that vibrates and rocks and can be used as a toddler chair also a chair your baby can hang out in when they are little! I have an 8 month boy at home and I brought him to the kitchen with me so i could get the dishes done! Within seconds of my son being in the chair, I see him flip the thing over and smash his face on the ceramic tile of our kitchen floor, leading to a very cranky baby and a bruise on his nose. I had a 100 people at my baby shower and almost everything i registered for was fisher price! I was very angry that this could happen when its not supposed too! I immediatly disasambled the product and put it in storage. I couldnt believ such a thing could happen to such a small baby! I purchased it from babys r us, and I am thinking twice about buing any more fisher price products! If there is anything you could do to help me deal with this would be greatly appreciated... Concerned MOM! The id number on the back of the chair is 00975-1013

The Fisher Price pretty purple bouncer has thin metal legs that stick out far in front and to the sides of the seat, Yesterday(05/10/09) I got my toes stuck in one of these legs while I was walking away from it and holding my 4 1/2 month old daughter and I fell and she fell out of my arms and cracked her head on the floor and now has a skull fracture.

I just wanted to share what Fisher Price told me. I have a Laugh and Learn Chair that was recalled. They say they have met Consumer Affairs requirements. The piece they sent to fix this chair is no more safr then what it was. The piece sets in front of chair which pinches my Grandaughter. Maybe she wont'get strangled but the part for repair is a joke and I just don't understand how it could have been approved to be fit.I have a picture showing the gap still in chair, that shows it is not safe at all.

Fisher Price says they met consumer affairs guidelines to fix it. BULL it is no good the way it is. They are sending me a refund but I have to pay shipping, since they are abidding by your okay to replacement part. I just don't believe it should have been approved. Problem fixed for strangling, but not being pinched or getting stuck by gap in chair. It is only about 1/2 but still unsafe. As a consumer I am not happy at all. I think it needs to be looked at again! She will be Three this August, I purchased it for her 1st Birthday, which would have been, 2006. Fisher Price said they were recalled in 2005. So why was Toys R Us even selling it. I still have receipt showing purchase.

My Grandaughter was pinched severely, caused a big blood blister. Hurt her, she is only two years old.
