my preemie is 5 months now and 21" (or about 53cm) she loves to bear weight on her little legs and I know she would love it- but her feet need to touch the floor! Any idea minimum height for use?

It adjusts quite low and her body weight will take it even lower. I couldn't give you an exact measurement. You could always order one and have her grow into it if you feel she's still too little.

there is an adjustable chain that allows you to get the seat at the right height for your baby to touch the floor. it works for ours and he's the same height as yours

That wouldn't be a problem for her. We bought this same one and the adjustable chain can go down quite low.

21 inches I think would be just right. It is adjustable so you can find the perfect medium between her hight and weight.

I have a tall two year old and her feet don't even reach that middle platform. The seats sit so far back that the leg room hasn't been a problem for me yet!

Our daughter started at 2.5 months. She's very tall 90%. We had to make sure her arms were out in front of her so she wouldn't slide into the seat. Within two days she was bouncing gently and having a grand time.

Depends on mattress height I guess. You may not be able to see the baby, but would be able to reach in and pat him/ her. If this helps you, the bassinet is about 11 inches from the floor and the side of the bassinet is about 7 inches. So you need to reach 18 inches up and go down 7 inches :)

Well can't say for sure but, I can say this our daughter is already 13 month's and she is above average in height and she seems to have room and works well, I would stop at babies r us and try one similar and put baby in and if fits order it...

I just measure mine...the legs are ajustable to about 19 to 22 inches...however the seat sits lower then the legs...i first need towels to prop up the babies...but not for long...as for the weight...my guess is like most everything for babies...30 lbs...but i think most babies will need more well before they reach 30 lbs...my twin gandbabies spent lots of time in them...from about 4 months till just this past month..at 8 months...they needed more stimulation then they were getting in the stationary play station...so we just got walkers for them...but both my husband and i feel they were well worth the investment because of all the time it offered us to do something else beside hold them...not to mention how much they both loved sitting in them...hope this helps...

Our son used it until he was almost a year old (even though he was walking). He was 30+ inches at that point and was on the highest setting. Our daughter is your son's height and is on the lowest setting still, but she'll likely be moving up soon.

My son is 4 months/ 18lbs and 25 inches. His feet hang off the end and we have to use it on 6 (the highest setting). It still moves smoothly but it's MUCH slower than it was when he was small.

If your baby turns into a tall toddler, his/her feet will be able to extend past the two-sided pad. The head and feet sides might be uncomfortable at that point.

Depending on the angle, I would guess 1-3 inches on the sides. A newborn might be slightly contained on the floor. I would get a crib if I and be concerned about rolling ... or a play pen.

Hi , it's recommended for babies from preemie up to six months of age, 25 pounds or to when the baby can sit up or crawl; whatever comes first. However , we used up until 8 months with our child .

Weight wise she's ok. I'm 185 and got on it for grins. My daughter is only 5yo and 43 inches. I think it's a great size for her. I think your daughter may find the foot board short and cramped. A bigger one may be more stable and she'll have some room to grow with it.

She can fit but will need some support ( we used a towel ) behind her. Also, at first, her feet probably will not reach the floor so we put a couple of folded towels under her feet. She loves it. We do limit it to 10-15 minutes until she gets long enough to firmly touch the floor. It is possible that it could get painful putting all her weight on her thighs and hips.

that is a great question Emily. My daughter turns 5 months this week and is using it however I don't know how long she can use it.she is rather tall for her age and I have not yet used the height adjustments available so I imagine she will be able to use this so she is at least 9 to 10 months at a minimum. If not longer!hope this helps!

We didn't even start on the highest level. We don't use the infant insert and we dropped down right away because the thigh space was ridiculously small and the tray at her navel. If she sits unsupported I would try either dropping down a level or removing the infant insert. Hope this helps!

Just keep on an oversized flat surface--floor! -----I bought for 6 week old grandchild and her parents loved it & took it back home with them. 8 months may be too big for it unless small child size.

It would be a little big -- as in she would have to hoist her backside up into it rather than sit straight down on it -- but once on the seat she would be comfortable and fit the table. I do not think her legs would touch the floor. **Keep in mind, she will fit into it quickly and have time to grow with it. If you buy something that fits a 20 month old exactly, she will be out of it in just a few months. I have another (more expensive) Crayola table that I bought for my daughter around 24 months. She fit it perfectly at the time, but grew out of it so fast it now is an end table bc the chairs are too small. I definitely, even at 20 months, would opt for this Dora set.
