Fisher Price Ocean Wonders Aquarium Bouncer — 

We bought this bouncer for my son just before he was born.  All the reviews said it was wonderful, and could keep a baby happy for hours on end.  He did seem happy when we had to put him in it for a bit, but he was just as happy in any bouncy seat we put him in.  We had a different one for upstairs, and he liked it just as well (and it cost a LOT less).

It runs through batteries pretty quickly.  We replaced them probably about every other week, and he only spent maybe an hour a day in it.  He did like the vibrate part, and that's probably what killed the batteries.  He wasn't at all interested in the fish or the music and bubbles.  He didn't seem to like the toys because they were hard.  He did like the toys on our other bouncy seat, and they were plush ones that I could take off for him to play with.

It was definitely a good bouncy seat, and well-constructed.  However, for the price, there are definitely better options.  You're paying for pretty lights and music.
