- Great Rocker!!
- My 6 months old son loves this rocker! The adjustable reclining positions are great as well as attached musical toys. It's sturdy and well-made. Overall, it's a great rocker--I recommend it.

- Can be dangerous
- My son is 12 months old and this toy is supposed to grow with him but I put him in it since I am supposed to keep him immobile. So I sat him in this rocker, strapped in. He leaned over just a little bit to reach for a toy on the floor and he was on the ground with the rocker on his back like a turtle shell. Now there is a kickstand option where it won't rock and I can test it out to see that he doesn't flip in it but not now while he has the fracture! However... considering that this toy is supposed to grow with your child it surprised me that this happen. Maybe I am wrong and should have not left it in rocker mode but the product doesn't say anything that I should not put him in it the way I did. I thought it was safe. I think I have enough commen sense to judge something like this (I hope so ) but he did flip over in it. Just wanted to warn any of you that may have this toy. I was in the room with Marcelo when this happen. I didn't just leave him there but it happen so fast and unexpectedly. He was fine and nothing happen but I am supposed to keep him safe so he doesn't snap that little fracture into two. A fall like that could have done it. But he is just fine. I may test it out with the kick stands (maybe not) but if I do it will be in a couple months when he is fully healed. Actually I really don't make him sit in it at all.... since he is so mobile crawling around. I just put him in it because I'm supposed to keep him from standing up and falling.
Anyway, I am ranting now but I just wanted to warn all of you about this product. I did call fisher-price and documented a formal complaint as well. They were very gracious and offered to take the product back and refund me full price but for now I said "no thank you" because I really loved this product and the idea that my daughter can use it too. However... I could take up their offer at any time.
I recommend this toy WITH CAUTION. It is a cool toy but best for babies that are not moving much and for toddlers that can sit in it and get up from it independently. Any age in between use with caution. I have had 3 mommy friends confirm that the same has happened to them; one of them her daughter was 6 months old. Being on the floor I doubt major injury can occur but if using it for that in-between age use with the non-rocker option and pull the little legs out. - 2008-10-16, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Adjusts to baby's needs
- Easy to clean, easy to maneuver. This chair is sometimes the only place my 3 month old daughter wants to sleep, from the time she first came home until now. She still loves it and the vibration is great and toy bar are great. I only wish the music lasted longer and that the toy on the side didn't pop out so easily.

- Soothes even my crabby baby!
- I bought this for my son when he was about 3 weeks old, he was crabby or colicky most of the time and I hoped that a bouncy seat might help me to get him to calm down so I could do housework and such. It quickly became his favorite napping spot, being on an incline seemed to help him sleep soundly. As he got older he liked to watch the toys and the vibrating soothed him. He is now 8 months old and he does not sit in the chair much now because he likes to crawl and hates to sit in one place for any length of time, but I know he will use it as he gets older, though he does play with the toys that were on the toy bar, they are detachable. Another plus is that the seat is machine washable. I would definitely buy this again and I am very happy with it.

- Really fits newborns and toddlers!
- My husband put this thing together while I was pregnant with my second child. My first son, who was three at the time, enjoyed sitting and relaxing in this rocker. Then his baby brother came along, we added the toy bar, and voila - instant chair for baby! He has used this thing from newborn to now, at eight months old. He's still entertained by the toys and loves the chicken rattle. This is a lightweight chair and it doesn't take up much room. The baby likes to sit in it to drink his bottle, and when he's not using it, his other brother takes it over. Definitely worth the money!
