Wonderful Glider/Ottoman! July 24, 2010 TDP I really prefer the gliders with a rounded back (vs. a square back), but Amazon had this on a spectacular sale and I couldn't pass it up, especially since most of the reviews were positive. I'd prefer to sit in the chair before a purchase, but I took the risk, and I'm glad I did!
The chair was VERY easy to put together - I was almost 6 months pregnant at the time and I carried the pieces upstairs and put it all together myself (I was too impatient to wait for DH to get home and help!). The ottoman comes already assembled (fabric and all), and so does the (rocking) bottom of the chair. You have to put on the back, arms, and then put all the glider fabric into place. It can be kind of difficult to wrap the armrest fabric around the arms (especially if you're pregnant!) but a little tugging and stretching was pretty much all I needed. In hindsight, I probably shouldn't have carried the ottoman and rocker bottom upstairs, just for pregnancy safety reasons (I have no idea how much they weigh), but in the end I had no problems other than getting a little winded. But of course, going up the stairs empty-handed leaves me winded at times!!
I'm thrilled with the colors. We have a (Babies R Us) europa baby Palisades convertible crib in cherry, and the finish on the glider/ottoman matches perfectly with the rest of the furniture!! It is super comfortable, too! It glides easily and smoothly, no squeaks or creaks. The back is nice and high (to lean your head on), and there seems to be plenty of bottom support. Baby isn't here yet so I'm just going to take a guess, based on just sitting in the chair to read and relax, that it will be just as comfortable for nursing.
It is microfiber so it's supposed to be good for spills, but because it's microfiber you can't wash the fabric parts (which does sort of seem a little counter-intuitive). There was a little dirt stain from shipping on the ottoman, but a little carpet cleaner got it out without a problem, leaving no marks or discolorations.
Some reviews say the chair is too small, but I think that all depends on your individual size. I'm 5'5" and pre-pregnancy weight was 135 (I wore a size 4-6). I'm now 7 months along and luckily my weight gain has pretty much been all in front. I have no problems sitting in the chair, and there's plenty of room on either side of my (slowly expanding) hips. DH is 5'10" and 175 and also fits easily in the chair.
I'm very pleased with this purchase, and I love just sitting and relaxing in this chair! Great for reading!
Great glider... GREAT deal! July 20, 2010 Diane - Wisconsin (West Bend Wisconsin) It's smooth.... it's Quiet... it's comfortable... and its beautiful. What more can be said!
Squeaky July 18, 2010 Bea This glider works fine. We bought it for use with our newborn. However, after our baby doesn't need to be rocked, it is not a piece of furniture worth keeping. It squeaks and stains. This is throw away furniture, but ok for the time being. Don't buy this with long term plans in mind.
Pretty good, but production quality missing on one side July 14, 2010 Shirley (Seattle, WA) This arrived pretty quickly, no complaints on delivery time. My husband got it put together in about 30 minutes, no complaints on assembly. However, the production quality is a bit lacking, at least on one side! The left arm is missing the holes to put in the screws. You can see where they holes *should* be, but they weren't drilled in the factory.
We've left it as is for now, because it isn't worth putting it back in the absolutely gigantic box that the glider arrives in and bothering with a return - the box is seriously huge. Also we don't have a power drill and I'm afraid that if we drill our own holes the wood might crack. I'm a bit disappointed from the production quality side, but I guess defects happen. Also, the price was right, and it was really convenient having it delivered rather than toting it home from Babies R Us or some other store.
Otherwise it's pretty comfortable with an extra little pillow in the back for my lower back and time will tell how our baby likes it!
reduce squeaking by wiggling side to side July 5, 2010 Ms. Mica (CA - San Francisco & Goleta) Great chair - very comfortable, but mine started squeaking loudly when I rocked by its 2nd day. I'm glad I don't need to soothe a crying baby in it. I find I can temporarily reduce the squeaking by wiggling side-to-side on the chair. That seems to reduce, especially, the most annoying squeaks that sound like metal-on-metal. Overall I'm quite pleased with my purchase. I suppose the squeaky glider-rockers are more likely to be sold online than in the stores.
