This chair is amazing! I almost paid double the price to have an old chair reupholstered buti am so glad I didn't. It is perfect for our daughter's nursery. The rocki g and swivel motions is so nice when trying to get her to sleep. I don't often use the recliner but might find it useful when she gets a bit bigger for a snuggle and a story! It was very quick and easy to assemble at 8 months pregnant too! I would purchase again in an instant. I would warn new parents though to toss a blanket over it if you are feeding your little one, we've had some close calls with spit up!
