Stork Craft Hoop Glider and Ottoman Set, Espresso/Beige
Posted on: May 19, 2012
we have had this glider for 6 months now. for the first four months it was great! glided well and was very comfortable. but then we started to experience the notorious squeak that everyone here is talking about. it is loud and impossible to get rid of for long term. I tried the spray silicone, grease, WD-40, wax, tightening the joints, etc. nothing fixed it. Then the back part started to pop really loud with each rock back and forth. I felt that maybe part of the issue is I am a big man, 240 lbs. so I stopped sitting in it and only had my wife sit in it (120 lbs).I called Stork and they informed me that the limited warranty will only cover a maximum of 50% of the parts of the chair so I had to choose to either replace the back or replace the rocking base. I chose to fix the rocking base and it took about 5 weeks to arrive (they told me it would take that long so I won't hold it against them even though it was a long time to wait). I got the new base and only had my 120 lbs wife sit in it and it worked like a charm...for one week. then the squeaking came back again. once again I tried all the lubes you can imagine to stop the squeaking but it only subsided for a few days. I called stock and they told me I had already used the full coverage of my warranty and that was the end of my extended service.I'm disappointed in this glider and I am in the hunt for a better one to rock our little one to sleep. I recommend that you look somewhere else besides Stork Craft for your glider needs.

I bought this glider and ottoman to match the furniture for my babies nursery. It looks great and was very easy to put together. The only problem I have is the seat cushion is not very comfortable. The cushion on the back of the glider is very comfortable and I am hoping with use that the seat cushion will soften up a bit. Other than that, I love it.
It was a nice purchase online. I saw this product by stork craft at a local store first and liked the make. For my online purchase, I was looking for better quality upholstery then the one it came with. It has a cordierite feel, I wanted more of comfortable cotton feel as at a local store. Returning big purchases like this could be pain in the neck. However, I liked the overall make and color of it, fits in nicely with my living and bedroom color styles and nice for lulling my two babies to sleep. I like the product and recommend it to anyone looking for one.
This rocker looks so much nicer than it actually is. Very easy to assemble, and the cherry wood is nice. But the cushions are terrible. The seat cushion, after one day, already feels flat. On day two, it's developed a squeak. I am not happy with purchase at all.
