I am writing this review while sitting comfortably in the glider nursing my baby girl. I ordered late in my pregnancy, hoping that it would arrive before the baby. Two days later, it was here! Assembly was very easy. I was impressed by the quality of the frame, although the cushions could look better. But hey, it cost $100! I was hoping it would be comfortable enough for night feedings, but found it to be comfortable in general. The big surprise was that my husband loves it! He even came all the way upstairs with the baby today so he could chill in it. For reference, I am 5'7, 105 lbs (pre baby, that is). Hubby is 5'11", kind of on the thin side but muscular (don't know exact weigh).

I bought this chair back in 2010 to prepare for my son's room. Two + years later and I now in the market for another chair. The chair matched perfectly with his crib, but I have had to tighten the screens in the arms twice, and now the back and the arms of the chair are falling apart. For the price, its a great bargain. But for longevity, I recommend something else because I won't be able to rock baby #2 in it.

I would recommend this product for the budget conscious person, however there are a few draw backs. The arm cushions do not stay in place as they snap into the seat of the chair. It seems that they are not long enough. Also, the chair is not that roomy, kind of a tight fit. Finally, the cushion back slides downwards towards the seat itself when you sit down. Other than what I've listed it seems to be a decent product.

glider is really for a smaller person than I am. It does glide well, but is not sturdy enough for a 240 pound person. Is a godd value.

i love this glider. I only had about 33" of space between our crib and the window and I was convinced I couldn't have a glider for my dream nursery. Not only does this fit really well, but it looks like it was made to go with our set and it's comfortable. The cushions are a little thin, but they're definitely nice cushions IMO. I was expecting a much cheaper product for the price, and I'm over the moon excited that it's so nice.

Great glider for the price

If you are like me and are looking for a glider on a budget this is it! This is the one nursery item I did not have with my first child, so it was a must have the second time around. I bought this with some reservations, because it is a lot less than other gliders, but I'm glad I did. I am 5'4 and I can easily reach the floor and rock the chair which makes the ottoman pointless in my opinion. The cushions are not the softest in the world, but I can easily see myself dosing off for a 45 minute to an hour feeding. I am 9 months pregnant and it took me 15 minutes to put together after my husband removed it from the box.

Espresso Dorel Glider

This is not as wide as I thought it would be and it is not the best construction (it kind of sways side to side) but for the price you can't beat it! I bought this a long with the espresso nursing stool and it matches perfectly with the Espresso BSF Baby Crib combo set. (Which I must point out is a great set!)
I previously bought the Storkcraft Glider Rocker and Ottoman and had to return twice to to faulty parts (same issue on both products) so for the same price got this Glider and like I said the nursing stool (which I like way better than a rocking Ottoman!)
I hope this helps! Enjoy and Good Luck!

We have only had this glider for a short time, but it compares to the more expensive ones in the other baby stores. We did not want to pay $500 for a glider. This is not a 'top of the line' model by any means but you definately get your $$ worth. smooth operation and sturdy, many of the same design were wobbly. Very comfortable and since I am 5'4" it is short enough that I can put my feet on the floor during those middle of the night feedings. My husband who is over 6' even loves it and is his place of choice to sit with our little one. I would recommend this glider to a friend, or if you are going to spend $500 just get a recliner because you will spend many hours in this chair!

Nice piece of furniture for my extra bedroom, which also serves as a part-time nursery. The glider is a must if you have a young one to rock to sleep, replaces the old fashioned uncomfortable rocking chair.

I bought this for my mother (88) who sits and reads everyday. The padding on the arms certainly help keep arms comfortable. The seat padding could be a little thicker though.

This chair is super easy to assemble and fits perfect in our small cozy nursery. I was looking on craigslist for a rocker and everyone wanted at least $100 for their old used rocker. Why not buy new and get exactly what you want for under $100.

I bought this chair for my mom to use in the nursery she has set up for my son when he stays with her. It is a great chair for the price. My mom has arthritis and she finds this chair to be very comfortable when rocking my son to sleep. She was very excited to received it for Christmas.

I ordered this because my old rocker was creaking very loudly. At first this product was working great but after about a week it started...clicking. When I go back a certain distance it feels like the rocker is adjusting by clicking into place. It's not too loud so it doesn't bother my son when I rock him to sleep but I would not buy this product again.

I bought this chair thinking "what a great value" and boy do you get what you pay for. I've had the chair about 3 weeks and 2 of the springs on the seat have broken. I've had to order a different chair from a different manufacturer. This chair got heavy daily use and just couldn't stand up to my 120 lbs plus the additional 11 lbs of my 3 month old daughter.

I urge caution

I am not a big fellow but I have had an issue with this chair after only a few weeks. I bought this chair because of the ptice and I figured the wooden construction would be more durable. My issue is that the gliding motion is already squeaking and requiring lubrication. The seat has springs that are cheaply sunk directly into the wood with no additional bracing. I have already had one of the springs pop out of the hole sunk into the wood. I had to put the spring back into the hole and then construct a brace to keep in in place. I like the look of the chair and I use it every day so we will see how well it lasts. That has been my issue with Walmart chairs before.
