The idea for this seat is ingenious! How often do baby products prove useful through the toddler years? This item does. Colorful and sturdy--more substantial when used as a bouncy chair when comparing thickness and structure of bottom rails to typical bouncy chairs. We use the vibrate feature often for our little man and it is still running on the same battery. One thing that could be improved: the adjustable height feature for the back of the seat some times doesn't "lock" into place the first time, so be mindful of this if your baby is in the seat when you adjust it. Overall, many great features, multipositional, and a product well worth the money because of it's potential for long term use.
