Has anyone bought a glider from Land of Nod? How's the quality? Anything I should know before throwing my money at them? 
They're having a 15% off all upholstery sale, and I've been eyeing up the Toby swivel glider in particular.

I have one! I love it. I have the dylan and it has lasted us nearly 3 years/2 babies thus far with no signs of wear. When you get something on it, it wipes right off. They are pricey though so I still don't know if I'd do it again
-
I love how they look but I would say to go test them out if possible......I was about to get one and I found them to be narrow and shallow and not as comfy as they look. I guess it depends on what you're looking for! For reference I'm petite, 5"3 and 125lbs when not pregnant and I felt like it was too small for my liking. There's no way DH would be able to fit comfortably in one!
ETA: we ordered this one from PBK and it's much more comfortable! http://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/chareleston-convetible-rocker-warehouse-sale/?pkey=cfurniture-clearance-event&

@Amelieisme: Thanks! I'm hoping to get a neutral enough color that I can just move it to the living room/sun room when we're done having kids, because if I'm paying $800, I want to use it forever!
@Ginabean3: Good to know... there aren't any Land of Nod stores around here, but maybe Crate and Barrel would have some? Part of the reason we're looking at them is because they're so small... our nursery is teeny tiny!
-
One of the HB bloggers, Mrs. Hopscotch I think, raved about the Toby. It is a good looking glider.
-
@raspberries: we also have a teeny nursery and that's why I've held off. Especially since I wasn't sure where I'd be nursing him. Turns out I nurse him in the living room, bed, and in his nursery, but I spend enough time sitting on the rocking chair we have in the nursery that I still think we should get one! I just want to find a tall one that I can rest my head on, with a small foot print to avoid filling the room, and a decent price. Not too much to ask right?
-
@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: Oooh, thanks - I always forget that when I search the boards, it doesn't also search the blog posts. I'll go check out her post!
@junebugsmama: YES, preach it sister! I feel like trying to find a small, comfy, not-super-expensive glider = trying to find a unicorn!
-
@raspberries: Yes, mine is a light gray color so I could definitely use it elsewhere (which was my plan as well). Mine is plush and comfy. It isn't huge but I can fit in it with my nearly 3yo sitting next to me for story time. I didn't use mine a lot for breastfeeding just because of logistics (mostly didn't want to sit in the nursery to nurse) but we get a lot of use out of it for rocking/story time!
-
@raspberries: oh, well if you have a small nursery then you could probably make it work!
-
Yes! Love it. The Attractive American rocker. Has seen me through nursing two babies for 20 months each
-
@Ginabean3: @Amelieisme: @ohapostrophe: @junebugsmama: Thanks ladies! I ordered it, so here's hoping!
-
I have the Milo, it was definitely a splurge, but I have spent SO SO SO many hours in that chair it was totally worth it. Still comfy after 10 months.
-
@raspberries: When does your glider come? I am trying to decide if I should get it still and have to hurry up before the sale ends! I really wonder about how high the back is. I want a nice glider SO badly and now I feel like I am more willing to spend more $$ since Ive spent a lot of time at night in the rocking chair. I have a ridiculous amount of pillows and blankets on that thing to make it more comfortable! But if I splurge on some Ive seen, they take like 3-4 mo!!! By that point my baby will be 7-8 mo old! Thats crazy to me. I know I should have got my sh** together sooner on this whole thing...
-
@junebugsmama: I got it this past weekend, actually! You can schedule shipping on their website when you check out, and there was open availability starting about 4 days later. Two guys with a furniture truck delivered it and took it upstairs to the our nursery, unpackaged it, and had me check for scratches/imperfections. Overall a great experience... it's so comfy!
-
Awesome! @raspberries: can you rest your head on the back? How tall are you?
-
@junebugsmama: yes, I can, but I'm 5'2" - how tall are you?
-
5'7''. Darn I am so torn! I want a comfy glider so badly. @raspberries
-
@junebugsmama: The seat of the glider is actually pretty long, so if you were relaxing in it, it might work for you? I took a picture of DH testing it out and he was kind of slouching in it, and his head rested against the back (and he's 5'9"). I can send you the picture if you wall me your email address.
Wouldn't it be nice if there were just Land of Nod retail stores everywhere so you could try them out in person?!
