This chair arrived fully assembled - it couldnt have been easier! The gray is a pewter color that brushes dark one way and light the other way. It actually leaves a butt crack mark in the seat when you get up, so you have to brush your hand across the seat to make it disappear. The arms need brushing as well to look decent when you are not sitting in it. Maybe in other fabrics this is not the case? Worth the brushing! The metal circular ring at the floor protrudes a bit and is visible more than it seems in the photo. Comfort-wise - this chair is wonderful - you cannot sit in it without (unconsciously) rocking - even the men who tried it found themselves rocking and liked the feel of it. Very stable and comfortable.
I really wanted a nice upholstered glider for my babys nursery but I couldnt stomach the $1,000+ prices of most modern trendy ones. I ended up registering for this and buying it right before my baby was born with my 10% off coupon code, so it came out to under $200.
I LOVE it! Sure, its not quite as big and roomy as some other ones, but for the price this really cant be beat. It is a bit small, so the pillow I bought for it actually doesnt leave enough room for me, but thats a small price to pay for an otherwise very comfortable swivel/rocker/glider.
I was a bit worried from other reviews about the back being too low, as Im 6 tall and I like to be comfortable, but I dont find the back height to be an issue at all. Again, I might be slightly more comfortable with a giant square glider that I can actually lay back in, but a) my nursery is not big enough for one of those, and b) for the price its just not worth it.
I do wish would make a coordinating ottoman for this, though, as I would have bought it for sure (supposing it cost less than the glider...I cant get over how much companies are charging for ottomans these days!).
If you have a small nursery and a small budget but you still like nice-looking items, take my advice and go for it!
Update (2019) We still love this chair 5.5 years later. We have used it through 2 kids and now have it in the younger ones room to read books. Its easy to clean and still looks and feels as nice as when we got it. Highly recommend!
We have a small nursery and wanted to get a recliner but just couldnt fit one. This chair works great! Its super comfortable for sitting and reading a book, nursing or giving a bottle. My husband and I both enjoy it. We bought a small nursing stool to go with it. I was worried at first about not having a headrest, but I dont want to fall asleep when Im nursing anyways! The price is great (especially if you use your registry discount) and the grey color is nice and neutral.
We love these chairs. Fast delivery and smooth glide. We felt we got a demo chair because one chair came wrapped up and extremely smooth to swivel and rock, the other one wasnt wrapped on the bottom and had a slight catch on the swivel. However, both are great and we love them, and so do the grand babies.
I bought this because I never put my feet up, even when nursing, and I didnt want one of the traditional gliders for my daughters room. This is much more stylish looking, and I can use it in other parts of the house since it actually looks nice. I love that it can swivel all around. We read books in it too. I use a small pillow at the base of my back to make it a little more comfortable.
Labored over this decision for several weeks, and finally went for it. We love it! I nurse the baby on it every 2 hours (newborn) and my husband bottle feeds sometimes too. Our 2 year old loves it too. My newborn daughter had a few spit up accidents already...a little Castile soap and water on a soft cloth- you cannot even see the stain!!! The ecru color is perfect for hiding milk stains. Micro fiber wears really well.
Only thing is, my husband and I are short- Im 52 and hes 58 so its a good height. If youre very tall, might not be the chair for you.
Great chair! Exactly as described! Quick shipping. Using in the corner of a small room and it fits perfectly. Good quality material and looks fantastic!
the chair is great. very compact and comfortable.
the gliding action is very smooth. my wife loves to nurse our newborn in it and is very happy with its quality.
i reserved a star only because of the way it was shipped. it came in a very flimsy box with awkward dimensions. it was very difficult to carry. they also include Styrofoam panels that break apart into a million little pieces and require a thorough clean up afterwards.

Perfect for a small nursery- still going strong 5.5 years later!

Great for babys room

So beautiful, loved it
Just what I needed, My baby room wasnt that big,so this fit perfect, it actually a little lighter gray than what it looks in the pic. LOVED IT
Home run!
