Storkcraft Tuscany Custom Glider and Ottoman with Free Lumbar Pillow (Espresso/Slate Gray Swirl) - Cleanable Upholstered Comfort Rocking Nursery Chair with Ottoman

This chair is beautiful and was VERY easy to put together. Nothing was damaged. It arrived in perfect condition and all parts were accounted for including all hardware and an allen wrench. It literally took us less than 20 minutes to complete it. I can see how the holes in the arm rests would be difficult to match up to the bottom of the chair if you don't follow the directions carefully. The directions tell you not to tighten ANYTHING until you have the bolts all lined up, so align everything and get them started and then tighten them down.The fabric is beautiful. We chose the gray and white and it seems like this fabric would be very easy to clean. The cushions are soft and comfortable. I'm not sure where the reviews are coming from that state the cushions are hard. I mean, they aren't memory foam/ gel / etc, but they definitely match, if not surpass the price. The arm cushions are a big plus and are very comfy. I especially like the pockets in the side of the arm rests. The pockets aren't large, but could hold a couple TV remotes if needed.The back may be a bit short for taller people. I'm 5'2 and my head fits comfortably on the back with a couple inches to spare. My chair is silent while rocking. I do also find it odd that the ottoman has two seams. They may or may not be durable. If not, I still believe that this set is worth the price and I will happily just recover it.Update 2021: We have had this chair for 5 years now and it’s still going strong. It turns out the ottoman is really durable. Ours has lasted this long with shoes on it. Some mild creaks while rocking at times, but I bet we could fix that with some WD40. It’s not bad enough to really worry about it. It’s a very good chair and I’m still so happy we bought it.

I'm the wife of Caleb, but I'd like to write the review myself, as I use a rocker more often then my husband does.Durability: GoodRocking: Smooth and quietComfort: GreatPrice: GreatOverall: Definitely a wonderful product! (Read below for full review)We bought this rocker to take place of the old family rocker that we've had in the family for 3 generations. We weren't looking for something too expensive, or made of solid wood that would last a lifetime, but something that would allow us to preserve the rocker we don't want to lose.Long story short, we have a 2 and a half year old, and very soon (I'm 38 weeks pregnant) an infant. My son that's 2 has a hard time falling asleep on his own, so he generally has one of us put him to sleep at night, or during his naps. It's hard to put him to sleep sitting in an old rocker that's falling apart and creaks badly due to the wood splitting, and I like gliding rocking chairs more for the fact that I've got relatively short legs that can't always reach the floor when rocking in a traditional rocking chair. I'm 5'3" and 170lbs to give you an idea of the weight being used on this rocking chair. We had received this rocking chair Tuesday 1/15/19 (I will be writing an updated review after a month, then a few months after purchase about how it's holding up) and got it together before my son's first morning nap. I got my son to sleep in less than 5 minutes rocking lightly in this chair, and was amazed it didn't creak or make any noise while rocking (or at least not audible for a tired little one to hear). The cushions are comfortable, and the material is very soft and I think durable. We did follow the other reviews to inspect every piece of wood before assembling (as we do nearly every product we order online), and test it with different people to check for wood splitting, or other broken pieces to make sure it was in good shape. The rocker came in quickly (less than 6 days), came in the color we wanted (white paint, dark grey cushions), and every piece was there and not broken in any way.After testing it for a couple days to see if the result was the same with my son (every nap, and right before bed), I could not imagine having anything else! My son every time for his naps, and going to bed at night, would fall asleep in less than 15 minutes! It was definitely more of a miracle for us as it usually takes us 30 minutes to an hour to get him to sleep.For those looking for a solid wood and extra durability on the chair, I would recommend looking at finding a carpenter to make you one, or find a local store that sells them, but I know for a fact that rocking chairs do not come cheap when they are made with more durable products. If you're looking for a rocking chair that will last you maybe a year or two, this one is perfect for the price. I've sat here and read review after reviews, both good and bad, old and new on this product and I understand the concerns people have about it, but mistakes can happen, especially with furniture. Not to be judgemental, but this rocking chair is definitely not made for those who are on the heavier end, I'd recommend a swivle rocking chair or a solid wood traditional rocking chair for those that are.Don't let these negative reviews fool you, this is a great product for the price, and so far have had no complaints about it, the ottoman, or the lumbar pillow (which these two were a huge plus for the price!) After about a month I'll post another review with how this product is holding up, and if it's still as I mentioned before.Update after 2 months of use:Even after using this rocker about 3 times a day with my 2 year old and my infant the rocker is amazing quality. Still rocks just as smooth as day one, still just as comfortable, and still just as sturdy. I would still buy this product again! Love it still!

1/26/24 edit: the armrest covers have snaps that hold them to the frame. They are annoyingly weak. My son kicks them off the snaps every night which causes the cushion to rotate and not cushion my arms. Minor draw back, but I hate it.In our house, the rocking chair is a staple in our sleep, reading, and relaxation routines for our son. So getting the right product is important! You want something safe, solid, and functional. This is overall a good chair. Below is everything I considered before purchasing, also including what I like and dislike about the chair.First, the pattern. 2/5 😵‍💫 I am not a fan. I didn’t realize there were white dots all over the chair. Normally I read reviews pretty heavily before purchasing, but I wasn’t very concerned about the pattern. It’s okay, not great. Just zoom in super close to figure out what pattern you’re getting. There is a solid gray as an option. The fabric also quite rough, almost like outdoor fabric. It’s a bit itchy on my skin. 2/5 for the one I picked but I’m sure other ones are nice.Material. 0/5 The fabric on the chair is polyester aka plastic derived from petroleum aka a byproduct of crude oil. I couldn’t find the chair material description anywhere (besides that it has a wood frame) on amazon. It wasn’t until the chair delivered that I read the tags. I really like the frame so at some point I will probably replace the cushions with an organic fabric and batting. Because polyester is synthetically made with chemicals, when it heats up, it can transfer those chemicals. For that reason, I’ll be keeping the chair out of the sun to avoid this until the cushions can be replaced. On a positive note, the chair is NOT flame retardant so you are avoiding those unnecessary chemicals!!The cushions (3/5) are also not great in terms of comfort, but it’s not the most uncomfortable chair. I can sit in it for contact naps and be okay. I was just hoping for higher quality cushions. The bottom is firm, which is nice. But the back portion is literally fabric stuffed with polyurethane (also plastic derived) stuffing/batting. I was expected more of like a couch cushion. The seat and back cushion both tie to the back of the chair, unlike what is shown in the product picture. Just a small thing, but nothing to note.Rocking chair frame 5/5 🤩. I LOVE the frame. It’s sturdy, glides silently, and is a beautiful design. It’s painted with non-toxic paint. I couldn’t find if it’s greenguard, or non-voc paint so not positive on the purity.Overall 4/5 stars because of those few drawbacks. For the price, it’s excellent. You won’t find a chair any cheaper with organic fabric and stuffing. We’ve had it only a few days now, but if anything changes, I’ll be updating the review.
