I purchased this glider for my daughter who is redoing her bedroom in soft grays.  She lives in a small space and adores rockers.  This glider rocker has a small footprint and fits perfectly into her bedroom.  She can even curl up in it. It was so easy to assemble and the rocking mechanism is soundless.  We love it and would recommend it to anyone needing a glider/rocker for a small space!  She wishes it had an ottoman.
