We have used this chair for nearly 2 years in the baby's nursery as we grew from a family of three to four. My wife can sit easily on this chair with our active 4 year old and 1.5 year old now and it is still going strong. The fabric cleans up well and it makes no noise. It is comfortable, the only thing lacking is adequate support for the head and neck, but a taller back would not look great on a chair this size. We feel we lucked out finding such a quality chair at a great price.
