You'll want the chair back to be high enough that your neck isn't strained and your head flopping around as you doze with your baby in your arms. We had the upholstered set from babies r us and it was great for sitting but not napping. I think they now have a very similar chair with a higher back.

My husband was a bit dubious about the Sleepytime rocker but agreed to it because I wanted it, however, he was pleasantly surprised by how well made it was when it arrived. You have to attach the runners/rockers, so when it's upside down, you can see the construction. I was impressed enough with it that we went with their Loom crib when it came time. Attractive modern design, green construction, and not ridiculously priced. We haven't put it together yet as Aurora is still in her bassinet. Which, I don't know if you're planning on a bassinet at first, but I found having a rocking bassinet invaluable. There have been many times that we've been able to rock her back to sleep without picking her up (which then wakes our baby completely.) We have the Nature's Purest bassinet, it's one of the few inexpensive ones that rocks. BTW, Nurseryworks furniture is well made.

I have a gorgeous little pillow on it and just throw a blanket on and I have no complaints at all for nursing my now 11 month old. The Eames rocker will also easily transition to our living room when the nursery days are over too!

Without being a mom or even pregnant, I would still consider this for myself. And it does seem to be a nice hybrid of the Eames and the TRU.
