We absolutely love the glider. It's so comfortable, very sturdy and clearly well constructed. It fits perfectly for me at 5'8", but my wife at 5'4" needs a small pillow behind her back to help her feet reach the floor when she isn't reclined. Our baby is only two weeks old, so having a place to take her from the bassinet outside of the bedroom for feedings is critical, and this chair is perfect for it. 

My only warning would be to be aware that if reclined or if the footrest is up, the gliding function goes away completely (can only glide in straight chair position). We'll probably get a gliding ottoman for the times when we want to rock her and put our feet up.
