I purchased this chair after searching high and low for a nursery glider at a decent price. The little wooden gliders and ottomans are so expensive and I truly felt that I would get more use out of a reclining glider. This glider definitely fit the bill! It came in three days after placing my order-with free shipping!! It was very easy to put together, the back just clicks onto the chair. (preggy mamas beware, it is a LARGE chair that comes in a LARGE box! I was unable to move the box without help) It is easy to rock and recline, but you do have to use some force to get the footrest back down. The quality is amazing for the price and I can't wait for my little one to be here and rock her in our new glider!
