Got this instead of a traditional glider to use in our nursery to rock our baby (with the intention of then having a nice recliner to relax in once we no longer have use for a glider). It's very comfortable! My only wish is that the back was a little taller. If I'm sitting up straight, my head rests above the chair (I'm about 5'7"). My husband (who is 6'5") isn't able to find a comfortable position for his head.
