We are expecting our 3rd child and received this glider as a gift from our family. The wood matches our existing crib and dresser, which is what I was after. The fabric is nice, not great, but nice for now. It is also lighter than the photo depicts it's off-white. Between the color & the quality of the fabric, I worry that it will show wearstains quickly once baby arrives, but so far a damp cloth has kept it clean. I believe it will do the job just fine...it may just look a little worn sooner than I would like. But, it's a good chair for the price.
