I purchased this glider because our previous glider had been damaged during a military move. I received the glider by the delivery date and was pleasantly surprised by the size of the glider. Its short and stout, but I fit (511, 200lbs) comfortably with a little room to spare. I have an 8 month old and rocking him while nursing or bottle feeding is easy, which is great! Being taller, there really isnt anywhere to rest your head unless, like other reviewers have stated, you use a pillow. I did notice, upon placing the glider in my sons room, that this glider sits crooked, but after turning the base 90 degrees, realized half the base is lower, the other, higher. If you have the lower end toward the front of the glider, it leans forward a little. Placing the lower end at the back of the glider, leans the glider up and back a little. However, no matter the bases position, while gliding, it feels like when youre going backward, you also go ever/so/slightly to one side or the other. Im not sure if there is a screw I could tighten or a bar I could straighten out, like someone else had mentioned. This glider is also a bit noisy. I dont mind a slight click while gliding, because it often helps my little guy doze off, but this glider has a click and a grinding noise.
If I could do without a glider for even a few days, I would send this one back and buy a totally different one. Its cute, comfy and stylish, but for the price, I need something that doesnt come with a hitch or a figure/out/how/to/maneuver/the/base/so/it/rocks/smoothly plan. Im keeping this glider, but Im not 100 satisfied. Id say Im about 50 satisfied with this purchase. My advice; pick something else
I am 52 and this is the perfect size chair for me to rock my new grand baby to sleep! It is super comfy yet still looks stylish in my living room. Its probably not the best for someone tall but I couldnt be more pleased.
The only con is that the back of the chair isnt high so you cant fall asleep and if you do, youll have a neck ache. Other than that, is rocks, swivels like its supposed to and its comfy. My baby fell right to sleep.
We received the swivel glider two days ago and its perfect. Attractive, quiet, fits perfectly into a small nursery, and meets all of our expectations. While the UPS carrier misfired and didnt deliver the glider as promised, the glider arrived assembled and ready to sooth our preemie. Well worth the money and already indispensable.
I was a little nervous to buy this sight unseen, but Im so thrilled with how it looks and feels! It fits it a very small space in front of a radiator and under a dormer, where no other glider would have fit, allowing us to have one in the babys room. I havent had to spot clean the microsuede yet, but it is so soft and comfortable. I hope it is as easy to clean as advertised because Id definitely like to use it for a long time.
I had been searching for an affordable glider for our nursery for months. After some back and forth on whether to get this one without being able to test it out in person we decided to go for it and are glad we did. Fits great in our sons smaller room and is very comfortable. Glides and swivels very smoothly and we have gotten many compliments on it. Would definitely recommend it to friends since many other gliders out there are 2/3x the price!
I dont know why baby gliders are so expensive. This was a good price and the chair is not hideous like the other rocking chair with cushions tied to them looking ones. It is pretty and comfortable.
The chair arrived yesterday, much to my surprise, as I wasnt expecting it for another week! From the look of the box I thought there must be some assembly needed because it seemed a bit short. Upon openeing the box it was actually all intact and though short and small, I was happy with its size since our nursery is small and lets face it Im short so it works perfectly and is very comfortable. So far, I would highly recommend this chair!
I love this chair. It is incredibly comfortable to sit it. The cushion is great, it never slides or moves around. It also hasnt flatted over the last year at all. It rocks well, but if the screws are at all loose it is noisy and gets noisier and noiser if you dont address the loose screws. One actually fell off and rolled across the floor. ugh! Not too difficult to tighten them though, so still worth it

Comfy, but noisy and slightly crooked

Just right!

Comfy

Wish we had bought it sooner!

okay for what its worth
Its okay for what its worth. Nice fabric and modern look. the chair can be wobbly and makes noises as you rock.
Perfectly Petit

Super Comfy, but screws fall out
