Our verdict
Simplicity against spectacle, and both are excellent at what they do. The Bright Starts Oball costs next to nothing, has 32 finger holes that tiny hands can actually grip, is BPA-free, and holds a brilliant 4.8 rating across 44,069 reviews, about as beloved as baby toys get. The Baby Einstein 4-in-1 gym, roughly eleven times dearer, covers laying, sitting, tummy time and travel with a kick piano, seven detachable toys, 70-plus sounds and phrases in four languages, rated 4.5 by 27,588. Honestly, they are not rivals: the gym is the main event, the Oball the essential extra. Budget for the gym, then add the Oball anyway.
