I found that the good ones, the really solid ones are in the 600 and up range. At least the upholstered ones are. We have a DeMare Glider and it's good but not GREAT and I think the brand is good but the one we have is their lower end model and we had a 250 pound + nurse and it was really not able to accommodate her. The chair never really recovered.

I LOVE if you can afford it and have the space the ones that are oversized so when the child is bigger he can sit next to you.

I also got a neutral color and kind of regret that too because it looks almost too grown up in his room. I would have gotten a red one in a better model if I could do it again. I just throw a colorful blanket over it to make it look more part of a child's room.

Good luck! So exciting!
