The weight limit says 25lbs; my 5mo son is there already. People say they use this for over a year, so is the weight limit being ignored? Is it safe?

I believe they recommend use for older babies because it is designed to work for toddlers after they are walking, the activities are all accessible from the sides of the walker. As my great-grandson hasn't hit that weight yet, I don't know how much the seat can support. As it's very well constructed, I'm sure we'll be using it beyond the 25 lb range.

My 23#er isn't putting any stress on it. I think the problem that you would have is that at some point he will either be too snug in the seat or too tall to be contained in the seat (there are straps which will raise his butt up higher if his legs get long). It seems sturdy enough that 30# would not tear the seat out or cause the seat to break off of the grooves. If I'm wrong, you have a broken toy but probably a safe baby as he will only be at standing height. That said, my attorney advises that you decide for yourself what to do with your child. For me, this is a reliable 30 minutes of parental freedom and I intend to keep putting my kid in it so long as he fits and continues to enjoy it. My 23#er isn't putting any stress on it.

Your son most likely will be supporting the bulk of his weight with his legs so I don't see any problem using it well over a year plus the seat part comes off and once your son is standing on his own it can be used as a play station. Hope my answer is helpful

I believe they say you can use it for over a year because the seat is removable. I do have thus item and a friends toddler who is about 45 pounds like to jokingly get in the seat and play around and it holds her just fine. I would say it's safe, especially if your child can hold most of their own weight.

I don't think they publish a weight limit. This is a smaller chair scaled to kids. Given that it reclines back, I'm guessing that the mechanics involved would break under too much weight, unlike a basic wooden chair that can hold kids and adults, despite a small size. I haven't dared to sit on it and I'm 5'5"/125 lbs. My son is almost 3 and has had it since he was 1.5. I expect it to last through 5 and then perhaps it will start getting to be too small. I hope this helps.

Notwithstanding whatever the manufacturer or amazon says (I'm answering from out experience) the weight limit is no where near 250. It's certainly a bit more than 105, but not that much more. I have four kids and they love the slide. They go down it together and jump on it all the time. It is very durable for children, but I weigh 190 and it would buckle and give weigh if I tried to use it. I have seen some that recommend a support bean made of wood and that would likely increase he weight capacity to 250, but it is for children (12 and I under is my guess) unless it is supported with some undergirding (which is silly).

Not sure what the weight limits are, but it may be a bit heavy. My son is 70# and its perfect for him. My other son is 46#, and not heavy enough to really use it properly

It is absolutely safe for baby's weight. Just make sure you install the upper part correctly. I'm assuming that it should be safe for baby until they can pull themselves up, in that case you would then lower it to the bottom part so the baby can't pull themselves out and over. But I've seen this one used at least until 22 pounds. There may be a weight limit in the paperwork.

There is a total weight limit but we have had 4-5. It also depends in the coordination and age of the toddlers. I would think 3 would be very comfortable with and occasional extra.

I am not sure what the weight limit is exactly. I bought it for my 2 year old a year ago and she still loves it. I do have a 6 and 9 year old who do get it on it occasionally. It seems to hold them fine.

When I bought this item it didn't say any weight limit ,however I saw on line that a customer wrote 49 lbs. The recommended age is 18 mos thru 5 yrs. My grandson is 2 1/2 an weighs 31ibs, my grand daughter is 5 an weighs 35 lbs. It looks like it will hold 50 lbs or more

Hi, my son only used this for maybe 2 1/2 weeks. I'm not sure how long you plan on using it for, but please keep in mind that it didn't feel very sturdy. With my son now at 8 weeks, I know for sure that he would be too big. I ended up giving it away when my two year tipped it over..thank goodness I was able to catch it.

It's hard for me to know how small your son is, since mine has always looked about two years BIGGER than he is lol. But, even if he is on the small side I am sure he would still absolutely love it and it's something I think most 4 year olds can handle! Plus, it is something he can use for years to come and it poses no real safety risk, which was important to me. It's so low to the ground you don't have to worry about falling and moves at a easy pace. He may need a bit of help to simply "start rolling" until he gets a bit bigger, but it's easy to keep going once you get started. I hope I could be of some help!

I'm not sure what the said anymore. But I would recommend no more than 150 lbs. my son is 80 lbs. so for him it's fine for now.

Not sure why, but the weight max is 77lbs :) did 5 months research on this before I bought it, I'm certain this is the true weight limit.

My son is 11 months and his 23lbs,.he been using that since he was 5 months,.

I believe it's a combined weight limit of 100lbs. So you should be good for a bit! We love ours. Our daughter is over 50lbs and it's really easy pulling her.

Hi my toddler is 20 months and about half the weight you are inquiring about however he is very active (since he was 5 months) and the playard has held up well. If you need a more accurate update in a couple months when he is heavier ask again and we will see how it is holding up.

I did not see that and don't know why it would only be 25 lbs. I have a 32 pound tot that sleeps great on it. It is very firm!! I would think any child that fit in a pack n play would be fine on this mattress!
