Has anyone used this chair in a baby nursery?

I purchased this for our grandsons nursery. The nursery was decorated in mint green and chocolate brown. The chair was a perfect addition. I use it every time I visit.

Well, I find it a little awkward, but certainly not unsafe. I call it a 'commitment'. That is, you don't use it like an ordinary chair; plan to settle in and stay awhile. We love ours.

I have had the chair for a while now and can honestly say i have not. I am still in love with my chair since i put it together.

I did not try using the chair when my son was two months old. We didn't get this chair until he was almost 1. However, I have a different chair that reclines just the same as this Graco Slim and I have put my infant daughter in the chair at 3.5 months old. It's a bit big so I put blankets on each side of her. I only did this a few times when i needed to be in the kitchen. I wasn't the most comfortable with doing this but i was very close to her. Now I use her bassinet instead. Hope this helps.

No! Overall I would not suggest buying this chair. It is cheaply made poorly designed, not even comfortable.If I had to purchase another one, I'd spend a little more money.

I agree with Rebecca - We have a fancy high chair that I have used once in 9 months. I started putting my baby in this chair on the playroom floor at 3 months to let him play with toys on the tray. By 5 months I had him at the table eating with us (with the tray attached). I attached it to a bar stool so he'd be eye level with us. He's 9 months, average size and there is still room for him to grow.

At the time I bought it for my daughter and her new baby, I weighed close to 200 lbs. I sat in it many times with the new family addition and it was totally fine. Baby weighed around 10 pounds at birth. My daughter uses the chair several times per day for breast feeding. She is close to 6 feet and weighs around 160. Still hasn't lost her new mother weight. The chair is extremely comfortable and seems to be quite sturdy. I would definitely endorse it.

I think it would work. I haven't tried it though. My granddaughter is just 5 months. We love the chair!

My desk is in my kids' playroom. My kids are 9, 6, and 3, and I babysit for an infant, a 2 year old, an 8 year old and a 10 year old.Seven children play on and around this chair.I haven't had to clean it once.I think it's magic.

I really just went based on whether or not my daughter fit in it anymore. She was in her chair from 3 or 4 months old until about 7 months old. She is really big though. She has remained in the 97th-100th percentile since she she was born. So even as big as she is she was still getting at least 4 months of use out of it. I could have had her in it sooner because she was controling her head and neck within a month from birth and trying to sit up at 2 months, but I was slow at figuring out it was time for an infant chair. It really was a great little chair and we got so much use out of it during that time frame she could fit in it. I don't actually know what the weight limit is; I think I looked for it before but did not find one. She just turned one so it was a while ago. I will also add that she has very chunky thighs along with being very tall and in general larger than most her age and she fit in it rather well. I would imagine that the chair would last even longer for infants that follow the normal growth curve. I was not even diabetic and she came out weighing 9lbs, 8oz.

This chair is very comfortable. It is a recliner. We needed a recliner since we have limited room in our nursery. An ottoman would have been too much for us. But I like it without.

NO!! My 4 and 6 year old children sit on these chairs at our counter. The wood cross pieces have split from their weight. Mind you, my children are no more than 60 lbs. I cannot get the company to respond to me about replacing the cross pieces. The buttons on our loosened after very little use. I do not recommend these chairs at all!

This chair is for a child that is already sitting up on their own and preferably walking. It is not designed for an infant, it is made to use for a toddler and ages up. A child should be able to climb in to the chair on their own in order to use. It tips over easily so do not put an infant in this chair.

Yes, I would most definitely recommend this over the bumbo. I work at a daycare and we love it here! I feel like the kids are more secure in this chair making it all around more safe. Highly would recommend it :)

We only used it once, and it was ok for an 11 month old. It is wider at the base than the top of the chair, that gives stability. Also, the baby is snugged right into that seat, which doesn't allow for much movement. Consider how your own weight feels in one of these folding chairs, although I realize that the baby chair is a bit higher off the ground. I am a safety nut with kids(retired teacher) and this seems like a safe chair.

I personally did not have any trouble, although I can see how this may be an issue. We honestly love this high chair! Wish we would have had it with our first daughter.

Yes. I have a boy and use this same chair. It doesn't have a "girly" pattern and I love it.
