We Bought This Chair In The Gingham Blue Check Pattern For Our Grandsons 1St Birthday! The Chair Is Sturdy Enough To Steady Him As He Pulls Himself Up To Sit In The Chair. We Took The Rockers Off Until He Gets A Little Bigger And More Steady On His Feet And It Is Perfect For Him! Would Recommend This Chair, For The Price It Is A Little Nicer Than The Hard Wood Rocking Chairs. Pros: I Like The Material, But Would Recommend Spraying Is With Scotch Guard.Cons: A Little Unsteady With The Rockers On For 1 Year Olds, But Just Take Them Off Until The Child Is Steady On Their Feet.
