I received the rocker before my son was born and since he was born, we've used it for him to take naps in, read to him in it before bed, and play in...it's great! Now that he's 5 mths old, we make sure he's belted in so he doesn't slide out as he's more mobile now. It's a great product, easy to watch and you can attach so many other toys to the bar overhead...it's GREAT!!!!
