I was looking for a chair that would hit of my needs in one - glide, swivel and recline and this one fits the bill and then some! I really did not want a glider with an ottoman because our baby room is small and all I can picture is myself half awake tripping over a stupid ottoman while holding a tiny baby (which is exactly what my sister did a few months ago!). It was really easy for my husband and I to set up this morning and it looks so perfect in the baby room. The chevron stripes are stunning and I was thinking it would even go perfect in our living room one day.  And the price is really good compared to other chairs in the same category. Definitely a must buy!
