1. Do you need a basic or versatile baby rocking chair?
The most common types of baby rocking chairs on the market are basic and versatile. The basic rocking chair has a very simple structure consisting of a frame made of iron, steel, metal,... and a fabric cover made of thin mesh. It only has a mechanical rocking function, which means it rocks when there is force applied to it, for example: when the baby moves, swings arms and legs, or when the mother pushes the chair.
On the other hand, the versatile rocking chair is equipped with more rocking modes, adjustable inclination, a toy bar with cute and adorable toys, the ability to play sounds, melodies, lullabies, customizable night light mode, and many other features.
