I had such a hard time finding a nursery chair- I saw super expensive ones and cheap ones and this one was kind of in the middle and it is PERFECT. I love that it rocks AND it swivels- when my newborn is super fussy I rock back and forth while slowly swiveling around and he’s asleep within minutes.  Plus when he’s awake we can read- I can swivel from his bookshelf to the nightstand where I might have my water- it’s perfect. I didn’t want one that reclines because the reclining feature I was worried would be too jolting and wake the baby- so I complimented this by buying a cute lamb ottoman. But the chair is super comfy, functional, looks good- and it was really easy to assemble. If you spent as long as I did looking for chairs look no more- this one is perfect. I have a cat who scratches everything but you can’t really tell either the fabric hides it well. And I can balance my baby in one shoulder and cat on the other- so it’s baby and cat approved!
