I wanted to love this chair ... I bought it to rock my baby to sleep, and that's what I've been doing for the past 6 months. But now it's making horrible creaking sounds that are getting louder, and it sounds and feels like the chair is going to fall apart any day. I'm so disappointed. I had searched high and low for a great chair, but this one has only lasted 8 months. I guess you get what you pay for.
