Re: Product Spotlight: Rocking Chairs and Gliders
I have this glider/rocker in DD's nursery and like it! I have it in cream and it still looks brand new (with the help of a little folex here and there)! I will say it is best suited for shorter people and probably would not work if you're really tall (due to the height of the back and the arm rests). I like having the extra storage space in the ottoman (I keep spare sheets, blankets, and sleep sacks in there).
I guess if your positioning in the chair isn't ideal for nursing/feeding that's where a nursing pillow would come in handy?

@inthewoods23 I have one similar to what your posted (we got it as a hand-me-down and put it in the family room instead of his nursery). It was fine to nurse in but I still needed a pillow (and speaking of pillows, I got the boppy and hated it. I just used a regular pillow every time). We ended up buy this one from BBB. They had it front and center at the store and we both fell in love. It felt like it was hugging us lol. We had also decided to spend a little extra on the chair since we got the rest of his furniture second hand. Plus we wanted to be able to keep using it after we move it out of the nursery. I love it so much that I think we’re going to buy a second matching one. I’m not ready to move DS’s out of his room yet. We still use it multiple times a day for reading in, or somewhere for me to sit while he plays, or helping him get dressed. Really I can’t see us moving it out of his room any time soon.

We have this one and love it. I like the recliner part rather than a separate ottoman and it worked better for the space we used to have. the only thing i wish was different would be a power recliner so to have something a little more gradual and with more adjustment. so comfy, will use it for this next kiddo and then use in our bedroom or living room since overall goes with our decor style. i'ts more than we thought we would spend (although i did find it on sale) but we (especially me) sat in it sooooooooooo much that it's been worth it. if you can go sit in a ton of chairs and figure out what works for you
Edited to add - the chair above is now like twice as much as it was when i bought it but also looks like they have a power recliner option. in general - holy furniture prices these days!
Order ASAP everyone!
