Hi ladies, my DH and I are expecting our first child this September. I am currently researching gliders to decide which one we'll get.
DH and I are pretty tall - I'm 6'0" and he's 6'2", so we need something that will definitely support our neck/head.
Fashion wise, I absolutely prefer one of those big comfy chair gliders that also swivel. However, I've yet to sit in one that I think competes with the XL typical gllders - for purposes of supporting our neck/head. I've sat in a few at BRU, ByeBye Baby, and USA Baby. We definitely have to pick comfort/function over fashion since we'll probably be spending several hours in the chair the next few years.
Are any of you ladies, or your DH/SO, tall and have a glider that you would recommend for tall people?
TIA!
Re: Any glider recommendations for tall parents?
my only rec is to not skimp on the comfort AT ALL. we went for the middle of the road glider (comfort and pricewise) and I curse that thing. I wish we would have gotten a la z boy type recliner instead of the glider.. then we could use it in our rec room once we were done with the baby use..
I actually hated it so much a few weeks back when DD wasn't sleeping that I put it on CL and said if it sold, I was getting a new one. no bites, so I am stuck with it for now..
GL, and don't settle like I did, we both wish we would have gotten something different!
sorry there's no specific chair I can recommend though! try a regular recliner/swivel la z boy-
