Product Description
Color: Blue/Green
From the Manufacturer
The Infant-to-Toddler Rocker is an infant seat that converts to a toddler rocker. In the infant mode baby is soothed with calming vibrations or mom's gentle rocking of the seat. There is a kickstand to lockout rocking for sleep or feeding. As the child grows, the seatback adjusts to a more upright position for a toddler up to 40lbs. The toys incorporate the adorable farm characters. In stage one, the toys are mounted to the toy bar and face downward towards baby for visual stimulation with bright colors and patterns. In stage two, the toys are unlinked from the toy bar and re-linked to the right and left of baby's grasp in addition to on the crotch strap for teething and to develop baby's sense of touch. In the third stage, the toys mount back to the toy bar and the seatback adjusts for baby to bat at the toys. Toy bar and three toys are removable.
Product Description
Fisher-Price Infant to Toddler Rocker Encourage your child's full potential with the Fisher-Price Infant to Toddler Rocker. Beginning as an infant seat, your baby will be surrounded in comfort and stimulation. Calming vibrations and gentle rocking motions help to soothe a sleepy baby, while the hanging toys and playful music are designed to enhance the developmental stages of an infant. When it's time for feeding, foldout the kickstand for a two-position reclining seat. Convert the seat into a toddler rocker when your little one gets more independent. It can hold up to 40 pounds.

(I have the previous version of this rocker, the mechanics seem unchanged).
Our son loved this rocker as a newborn (1-2 months). We pulled out the "kickstand" and that allowed him to be in a flat position and he was very comfortable. Most bouncers are too upright fro newborns. Also, the rocker has two recline positions for you baby's comfort.
As he got older (3-4 months), we would push in the "kickstand" in so we could use the rocking feature. He liked being more upright than flat at this age. He liked to look around and play with the toy bar. Also, we could rock him to sleep.
But, once (around 5-6 months) when he was trying to sit up and lean forward he fell over (the reason for 3 stars only). He was strapped in, so the chair fell over with him. I was in the same room as he was and he is fine - he was just a bit startled.
(Think about sitting in a rocking chair and leaning forward - if you cannot lean back then you would fall forward.)
I put it away for now and will try it when he can climb in and out of the rocker on his own.

Color Name:Blue/Red
First off, I have last years model. From what I can tell, the difference is the color scheme. I bought this for my daughter when she was about 4 months old. She's 11 months now. At first, she didn't like the vibrating, as it made her itchy and she'd rub her face. Now that she's older, she's OK with the vibrating mode. It's nice and portable and is good for keeping her put for a short while. She does get bored in it if stuck there for too long...but not much more than others things that are confining. At her current age, the activity center does the job a little better, but a bit bulkier, so this is great for hauling into the bathroom and keeping her safe and in view while I shower. Oh, so now that's she older she is able to yank off the toys that can be velcroed to the top bar. Not a big deal. Try the linkadoos and attach your kid's toy du jour to the links...attached in turn to the waist strap. DD is fond of throwing toys overboard these days, so with the links, they don't go far, and she can then reach over and retrieve them herself.
NOW, I MUST MENTION TWO things I don't like about this item. FIRST, my daughter isn't yet tall enough to reach her feet to the floor and rock herself, and she gets a bit frustrated at staying still in the non-rocking position for too long. I know that in time, she'll grow and that issue will be resolved.
But, the MOST IMPORTANT thing to note, is not to assume your child is safe and secure if you dash out of site for a moment. My daughter leans so far forward in the chair now (but is unable to reach the floor with her feet), that the entire cloth back just comes forward with her, since she's strapped in. No big deal I thought, until...I left the room for a moment, and when I returned, she was crawling on the floor! I have NO idea how my little houdini did it, but I had her buckled in...and the waist strap was still buckled! The chair wasn't even overturned! There she was nearby examining our heat register in the floor. We were VERY lucky since there were other non-baby-safe items within her reach and the door to the room was open...and the house not yet completely baby-proofed. My husband and I were in utter amazement and the only thing we could come up with is that she leaned so far forward to reach something on the ground in front of her, that her body just folded over itself and she simnply somersaulted out of the chair...her legs sliding out of the belt (and it's on the tightest setting...but still doesn't fit as snug as I think it should...but I never thought THAT would happen). The chair must have just rocked back into it's upright position...and there she was crawling around happy-go-lucky; unscathed by the event.
I still think the chair is a good thing...will last longer than a bouncer. However, NOW, if I have to dash out of site for a moment, I make sure the rocker is in the non-rocking position so that it doesn't lean with her if she tries to reach forward too far.
This just seems to be an awkard stage to get it's best use.
If they could improve upon the fit of the harness belt, and make the cloth back somehow not move so much with the baby as he/she leans forward while belted in...I would give it five stars.

Color Name:Blue/Red
I've been reading the reviews about people putting their babies in this in the rocking position, and that's entirely too early for this feature to be used. The rocker part is for when the child is old enough to reach the floor with his/her own legs. You wouldn't put a child in an adult rocking chair and you shouldn't use the rocking feature of this chair for babies either. It's for the toddler stage. I've had this rocker for 6+ years and none of my 3 children have ever fallen out because they've never been put in by themselves in the rocker mode.

Great infant seat, but not a great toddler seat
We bought this for our four month old as an additional seat. She loved pulling the toys and listening to the music. She liked the vibrations. Read more

As hard as plywood can be
Junk junk junk. I don't know why so many good reviews. It looks so comfy on the picture, but it is just a piece of plywood covered with nylon, no cushion at all. Read more

We bought this rocker for my son when he was just an infant. I inadvertently thought it was a bouncer and would work just the same. Boy, was I surprised when I put it together! Read more
