This looked really nice when we pulled it out of the box and assembled.  I had read the reviews that stated a squeaking noise but thought we'd take our chances since it didn't seem consistent and the price was right.  Now after using the chair for 6 months it has a terrible squeaking anytime you try and sit in it let alone rock.  It completely works against me when I'm trying to put a baby to sleep and want to give my legs a rest from rocking. We are going to purchase a new glider of better quality since this has become just a decorative chair in the nursery and serves no purpose.  At least it looks nice.
