We got the upholstered kind that looks like an armchair so we could keep it a long time...it is wide enough that I can still sit w/ 2 three year olds on my lap reading, and MH & I love sitting in it to surf the internet or read or whatever> I think we'll use it for a long time.
Our oldest is 2.5 and we still use it every night and during the day to read books. I think we'll end up keeping it in her room for a long while. She also likes to sit in it on her own when shes flipping through books by herself. Well worth the money!

We still use ours because it's where we read stories to DS every night before bed. We have an upholstered one that doesn't really look like a glider so whenever we're done using it for kids, it will likely transition into a living/family room piece.
We got ours as a baby shower gift from my ILs, and we love it! DS is 27 months old today and we still rock him to nap/sleep in it everyday. I would say buy it...you will get a lot of use out of it, especially if you have more children.

I never used mine since I broke my tailbone when I had DS. So I sold my unused glider on Craigslist after it sat in my house for a year.
