Nursery Glider recommendations?

Question

Which glider did you get? Do you like it? Are there any should I avoid? (We have quite a few gift cards for Babies R Us, so if you bought one from there, your comment would be especially helpful!) 😊

Answer

I bought a used wood frame glider for $30, retails like $170. I was ok with it being scuffed up cause I've trashed it even more. I like the upright back cause it is easy to get out of with baby

Answer

We didn't buy a glider for his room (mainly bc his room is tiny and it wouldn't fit). We bought a rocker-recliner from La-z-boy to put in our living room instead. My husband says all the time how that has been the best purchase bc it's so comfortable and we use it all the time.

Answer

We got a custom one from buybuybaby.  It was the same price as the others, but we got to choose the finish and fabric. Definitely go sit in them. We were offered a friends, but it was super narrow.  My husband is a big dude, not obese but literally big, and he was incredibly uncomfortable because of how narrow it was. I wanted to make sure he was comfortable since he'll have the baby a lot when I go back to work (9-5 vs his schedule that's all over the place).
I like the wooden ones that go back and forth vs the ones that look more like a recliner and swivel.  The swiveling actually made me nauseous, and I didn't feel like I'd feel secure holding the little one in it because it was kind of wild.

Answer

We have  metal frame glider recliner. Not bad for the price but if you're debating between two and cost is the issue remember you will be spending hours and hours in that chair.

Answer

We're getting a big, comfy swivel recliner so we can still rock him to sleep, but if he falls asleep we'll be as comfortable as possible.  I had a wooden glider with cushion seats that you see everywhere with my first and I couldn't even get comfortable sitting in it feeding him, let alone comfortable enough to just stay there, relax, and let him sleep.
