Rockit Vibration Levels

The Rockit was tested by an Acoustic Consultancy to compare the vibration acceleration level produced by the Rockit, by hand rocking side to side, by hand rocking fore and aft, and by pushing the pushchair along paving stones.

We found that the Rockit produced comparable or lower levels of vibration than hand rocking and both hand rocking and the Rockit were significantly lower levels than pushing the pushchair over paving stones.
