Rocker Glider Reviews

Expensive chair, but $300 less than the store here that said they'd have to special order it since nobody was buying it due to price. Reclines and rocks WHILE reclined, will lock into any reclined position if desired. Hardwood construction, super easy to put together, comfortable and stain resistant microfiber. Use with or without the ottoman (which makes it SUPER COMFORTABLE). When you're done using it for your baby it is small enough it can be incorporated into any room (unlike the giant rocker/swivel/recliners). This chair does not swivel, but the trade off to be able to recline and rock simultaneously is a choice that you'll be glad you made whether its 3am feeding or kicking back with a good book.

We bought this glider (in the Buckwheat) and the matching ottoman to use in our soon-to-be daughter's room. I was hesitant to purchase it without being able to see it in person, but decided to take a gamble because I found it at a significant discount (elsewhere than Amazon, and it was a limited time offer).I'll tackle the color first, since it was my biggest "disappointment" with the chair. There's really only one or two pictures of this chair (at least in the Buckwheat color) that I could find anywhere online. And when compared to the picture of the ottoman, it looked quite different (much lighter/more pale). I was hoping for something in a really light cream. When the chair and ottoman arrived, I was slightly disappointed to find that the picture of the chair is not very accurate in terms of color, and is definitely over exposed/washed out, or something. If you search for a photo of the matching glider, the color in those photos is closer to what you'll actually receive -- which is a light beige, not a light cream. It's still a nice color, and I'll be able to incorporate it into our nursery just fine.The chair and ottoman both came fully assembled. We just had to unpack them from their boxes. The underside of the chair and ottoman has an unobtrusive black metal frame that supports and allows for the motion of the pieces. Under the chair, the frame is basically a tube circle. You can see it a bit when you're standing and looking at the chair, but it isn't ugly and…

Item Reviewed: The Rockabye Glider Square Back Glider With Sherpa, Micro Beige/Ivory (purchased from Amazon)with matching ottoman (purchased directly from Stacks and Stacks)Reviewed By: Skip Steller, Alex, VADate Purchased: 4 April 2012Newco manufactures this Glider/Rocker/Swivel Chair (chair) and the matching ottoman. Stacks and Stacks sells both, but only offers the chair through Amazon.The chair is advertised everywhere as "It rocks, swivels, and glides". Never-the-less, it does NOT Glide. (The ottoman, however, DOES glide.) Read on....On 4 Apr 2012, I had this chair and ottoman sent to my daughter Lisa and new granddaughter Reese in Tampa; the chair from Amazon and the ottaman from Stacks and Stacks. Lisa got both on the same day; four or five days after the order. The ottoman was find, but the chair, "flopping around in a big cardboard box" as Lisa put it, was damaged. The back frame was loose and the cloth on the back of the chair was pulled away from the frame (loose staples). Not so bad it couldn't be used short term, but bad enough to need a replacement.Lisa's initial reaction was "the chair is great, I love it, it's just the right size and it's nice and cumfy, but it's stuck in the rock mode and I can't figure out how to change it to glide mode. Must have something to do with the damage, and, no, there is no button, lever, or pull to change it to glide mode."Lisa called Newco and Stacks and Stacks immediately to get a replacement chair…

When I ordered this my little one was already 6 weeks old and I wanted something in a hurry without breaking the bank. This definitely fit the bill, especially with Prime shipping (I believe it was also a sale price when I bought it). It is extremely easy to assemble, just 4 screws on the chair and 4 on the ottoman. It is very comfortable for nursing and I highly recommend the recline feature (the models that say Multiposition only DO NOT recline, it has to say Recline). It is a very nice looking piece of furniture and matches the rest of my espresso nursery furniture well. It is definitely dark brown (what I wanted), and not quite as black as the pictures suggest. This is in middle of the range for the Dutailier gliders and I think the extra cost offers more durability than the lower end. The only thing I wish in hindsight was that I had decided to order the glider long before I delivered, that way I could have gotten a special order (normally 10 weeks) with some more unique upholstery. It's a very light beige and neutral enough to move into another room down the road though.

I'm 5'11 and I needed a chair with a high back so that my head could relax during late night feedings. The color is beautiful, size is perfect. Very comfortable. Couldn't be happier! Shipped through CEVA, and the delivery lady unpackaged it, brought it in the house and straight to the nursery! Great Service!!

We just received our glider today- it came in about 1 week. The delivery guys helped get it into our 2nd floor condo which was great considering the size! The chair has a higher back that allows me to sit with my head resting back (I'm about 5ft 8) and though the arms have a more formed style, they are actually pretty soft and definitely will be okay for resting my arms while feeding/rocking our baby. The gliding motion seems to work well- no sound at all. The color is true to how it looked online and the microsuede is very soft to the touch.I looked at TONS of gliders before ordering this one. I was quite nervous to order it online without seeing it first but am overall very happy with the purchase. I think we will go ahead and order the ottoman as well!

My expectations for this glider weren't all that high, considering we purchased it for a fairly low price, but I was still disappointed. The main issue is that the construction of the bottom where the swivel/glider mechanism attaches is very poor, so when you sit in the chair it leans forward and to the left (even if you make a point to lean back and right as you sit). It also is so low to the ground that it doesn't let you glide very far. The chair also seems to be made with a cheap foam filling that probably won't hold up to heavy usage, though we are returning it so I won't be testing that out. It looks nice, but if you are actually planning to sit in it regularly I wouldn't recommend this chair.

This glider is so worth the money, it glides so smooth and also swivels (which, when you are nursing, it's such a bonus to be able to connect all around you). It is beautiful, so can be used for years to come, instead of those really ugly spindle wood ones that have to go as soon as you are done nursing. I am expecting #2 in May and decided to do it right this time. Less gear and better quality. And it was $300 less than ordering it direct from Dwell (they were charging $204 for shipping alone). I was told 6-8 weeks from Dwell, but Amazon delivered in one week!

About the company...Pokkadots is a very responsible company. They contacted me immediately and actively worked to try to resolve the issues I identified. I like them a lot, actually. They are reasonable, hard working folks.About the chair...The storytime rocker is perfect for short, fat people living in large homes with lots of space. It is very low to the ground, has no back support and is very wide. I had hoped to receive the sleepytime rocker which has a higher seat, is narrower, has back support and is better for an apartment dweller. A glitch with the internet order landed me with the wrong chair. Nurserytime (the manufacturer) does not refund the $150 that it costs to ship the item to you and it would cost another $150 to ship the chair back to them...So, I would have to pay $300 to return this chair and then I would have NO CHAIR.For the next purchaser, once you make your decision on the perfect rocker, pick one up at the store or if you must, PHONE IN your order. Remember, if anything is wrong with the item, it will cost you $300 to fix it. Hope this is helpful.

This is an amazingly comfortable chair, but don't buy SAGE expecting a green color. This looks beige. No time to return, we just kept it because we NEEDED a chair badly - and who wants to figure out how to get this massively heavy box back to UPS? So just a warning. if you are expecting greenish Sage, this is not it.

I really wanted a glider and ottoman that reclined. The reclining ones are very expensive. I did lots of research and shopping and found this glider! It is perfect! The cushions are very soft and comfortable. The wood on the chair is sturdy. It came to our house very fast and it was easy to assemble. Ordering the same chair from certain baby stores required a 6-10 week wait for ordering purposes. I didn't want to wait that long because our baby would be here way before that. Needless to say, I am very happy with this chair! The reclining mechanisim on it is a must have!
