Idk if the elephant would be different, but I'd e hesitant to pay that much for it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1274039 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 13:49:43 +0000 Bookish 1274039@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@rattles: Oh haha thanks!! I'm so glad you like it! I ended up not getting her one this year, but it's on the agenda for next! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1273845 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 12:38:16 +0000 rattles 1273845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bookish: I know this is an old thread, but we got LO a Rockabye for her birthday and it does seem really well made. The music is super annoying (you can hear samples on their site), but she loves it and it's not horribly loud. It's much smaller than I expected, but it fits her perfectly and is wide enough for her to sit and rock without support. I saw them on gilt today and was reminded that I meant to come back to you with the review! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1129233 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 14:05:49 +0000 kiddosc 1129233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For anyone's who's interested, woot has animal rockers right now. @Adira: They don't have a grey elephant (boo), but I thought others might want to take advantage. </p> <p><a href="http://kids.woot.com/plus/happy-trails-rocking-animals-6" rel="nofollow">http://kids.woot.com/plus/happy-trails-rocking-animals-6</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1129214 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 14:02:21 +0000 Adira 1129214@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ShootingStar: Yes! Your nursery is the reason I started looking at getting it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128934 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:57:08 +0000 ShootingStar 1128934@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: As you know we have that rocker :). I bought it partially for decoration to go in his elephant themed nursery. We kinda went a little crazy on the PBK elephant stuff, lol. If he uses it for a while, great. We didn't personalize it, so the next baby can use it too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128834 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:36:38 +0000 Adira 1128834@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bookish: And there are so many different options! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128827 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:35:03 +0000 Bookish 1128827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Yep, I looked them up on amazon but I figure HB is always good for help! :) They are just SO cute!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128824 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:33:52 +0000 Adira 1128824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bookish: They seemed to have gotten okay reviews on Amazon. If you don't get any responses here, check there for some reviews? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128805 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 12:30:27 +0000 Bookish 1128805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@DillonLion: Thanks for mentioning this! I think I'm going to pick up the Dino one for LO for Xmas! Woo!</p> <p>@Adira: I'm going to threadjack for a min to ask- has anyone bought one of these Rockabye rockers? Are they good quality? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128632 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:41:36 +0000 Adira 1128632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: OMG, so funny!!! And that's a good point about grandparents! If the rocker from @mrs. wagon: doesn't work out, maybe I'll put the PBK one on the list for grandparents and see what happens, haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128627 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:39:45 +0000 deactivated_account 1128627@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: Yes, they are the same price. But they are my favortie! Although, I couldn't pass up a gently used one for $10! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128625 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:39:22 +0000 chopsuey 1128625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: here's a visual. :) we have lots of pbk furniture, but they were all gifted to us by grandparents and aunts/uncles. :P :) </p> [attach=45/13/mu3q9m.542x389.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128620 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:38:13 +0000 Adira 1128620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMcD: I just found an elephant on Restoration Hardware!

It's great quality and I'm sure we'll use ours for years to come. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128616 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:36:55 +0000 Adira 1128616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@DillonLion: Some of those rockers on Zulily are sooooo cute! But I really want a grey elephant (I know, I'm being way too picky) and it looks like they just have pink and blue! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128610 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:32:40 +0000 Adira 1128610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: That's a good point about not having it personalized so it can be passed down! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128609 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:32:32 +0000 DillonLion 1128609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They have a bunch of these on Zulily right now </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128608 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:32:00 +0000 Adira 1128608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaJ: @mediagirl: I agree - PBK is too expensive! But we have bedding and a cute piggy bank (okay, it's an elephant bank) from there, so I like the idea of matching things. But the price!!! Gahhh!!</p> <p>@MrsMcD: I have never even heard of that! I'll have to check it out! Though I think @mrs. wagon: has come up with the perfect solution for me! She's going to sell me her elephant rocker!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128603 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:30:15 +0000 chopsuey 1128603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: dd has a pbk lamb rocker. She still rides it at 2.5 yo. She got it when she was 9 months old.<br /> DS will use it too. I would get it without personlization if you really like it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128600 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:29:47 +0000 Adira 1128600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: Thanks!! The videos actually make it look softer/fuzzier than that picture, so now I feel even more excited about it!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128599 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:29:46 +0000 deactivated_account 1128599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I love love love that rocker! At that price, have you checked out Restoration Hardware's rockers? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128594 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:28:44 +0000 mediagirl 1128594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: DING. Pottery Barn things are always too expensive!!! :) These things are used for such a short period of time, I bet you could find a really nice used one at a yard sale or on CL!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128593 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:28:42 +0000 Mrsbells 1128593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is so cute but I dont think I would spend that much </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128591 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:27:06 +0000 MamaJ 1128591@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: that is cute! We have an elephant themed nursery too. But I wouldn't spend that much! Maybe I'll buy the amazon for DS for Christmas though!! :) PBK is redic. I was looking at Halloween costumes and they were like $80. For a child that will wear it once.... No thanks haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128587 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:25:24 +0000 mrs. wagon 1128587@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: here is the exact one we have.. you can search "kidkraft elephant musical rocker" on youtube and there are a bunch of videos!</p> <p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5p3YksS4DM" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5p3YksS4DM</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128583 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:23:41 +0000 Adira 1128583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@loveisstrange: I wonder if it's the one that @photojane: linked? But it definitely sounds like PBK's is probably TOO pricey, which is sad, because it's so dang cute! Oh well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128576 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:21:16 +0000 mrs. wagon 1128576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: huzzah! win win :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-this-rocker-worth-the-money#post-1128571 Thu, 03 Oct 2013 11:20:23 +0000 loveisstrange 1128571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope.
