Can't wait to see how it looks in the nursery. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-991664 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 20:47:35 +0000 ShootingStar 991664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-991557 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 20:00:24 +0000 Ash 991557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Well I'm done chair shopping! Bought this beauty - it's by Best chairs for $429 bucks! Thanks everyone! </p> [attach=2798/13/mr344o.300x300.GetPhoto.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-991541 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 19:56:02 +0000 matador84 991541@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I seriously love, love, love our LC glider. It was super expensive, but I have spent an insane amount of time in it. In fact, I can barely sit in it without DS like huffing and puffing for some boob! I got the cording and have the matching ottoman. I literally can't imagine life without it. I actually live 6 hours from a BBB. My mom rented an SUV and drove it up here to deliver it to me. It is pretty big with the ottoman and barely fit in the suv...I think they have a ford escape maybe. Anyhow, it has been the best baby purchase to date!</p> <p>ETA: OH...and-BBB is so kick ass they literally encouraged me to use 2 20% off coupons, one I had in my hand and she had me sign up for text 20% off and I used both! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-991509 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 19:47:13 +0000 JamieLee 991509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I really like mine (posted the link on your other thread) but baby isn't here yet, so I hope I don't change my mind once I'm actually rocking baby in it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-990352 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 12:52:00 +0000 PointeShoesTutus 990352@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom actually bought an LC glider (hers is a "Cottage") for her family room because she couldn't get over how comfortable it is. It rocks and fully reclines and I want to steal it for my childless self every time I'm at their house. </p> <p>She got hers on Amazon for a significant discount because she wasn't picky about the color. I think it was about $400 versus the $800 the baby store in the mall wanted for it. </p> <p>I totally plan to get one for any baby room I may have. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-990000 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 11:13:27 +0000 Ash 990000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsCB: I'm a huge klutz... Oh boy! I'm gonna talk to DH when he gets home in a bit and see what he says! Thanks so much for your advice! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989972 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 11:05:51 +0000 ShootingStar 989972@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: Looks the same! I will say though, go try it out. I had trouble reaching the recliner thingy on some of them, and I was worried with holding a baby it would be bad news (I'm kind of a klutz). I also have a dog that likes to lay under recliners so you have to be really careful when closing it. The ones that all of a sudden pop closed kind of scare me, lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989962 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 11:02:26 +0000 Ash 989962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cara M. 17: That's what I was thinking too! But then I thought, we would wear it out too so I was pretty cautious which is why we left without a chair. :(</p> <p>@MrsCB: I think I saw that chair on the website I'm on - or something similar. DH really wants a recliner.<br /> ( <a href="http://www.nfm.com/DetailsPage.aspx?productid=29148673&#038;cm_vc=pdpz1" rel="nofollow">http://www.nfm.com/DetailsPage.aspx?productid=29148673&#038;cm_vc=pdpz1</a> ) Love how comfy you make it sound!!! </p> <p>@scg00387: Everytime I see them online, they are outrageous (as in more than I wanted to spend) but this one is very reasonable. I'm gonna show dh - and you're to thank since you directed me to the nfm site! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989908 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:50:58 +0000 immabeetoo 989908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: LOVE it too they definitely didn't have that one when I went!! Grey is my fav neutral. Best chairs were the ones I wanted to order from BBB if it hadn't taken so dang long to receive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989905 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:50:38 +0000 ShootingStar 989905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I liked the Little Castle chairs at BBB, but I really loved the Best Chairs one. We almost got this one at BBB - <a href="http://www.besthf.com/best/Furniture/Recliners/Medium/IRVINGTON1" rel="nofollow">http://www.besthf.com/best/Furniture/Recliners/Medium/IRVINGTON1</a>. I loved that I could get up without needing the arms, it was super comfy, and wide enough for the boppy. The only reason we didn't get that one was because we discovered Best Chairs' power recliner feature and they don't have it on that one, so we had to pick a different one. I think it was pretty reasonably priced without the ottoman, plus 20% off, of course. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989899 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:48:30 +0000 Cara M. 17 989899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: Just under $500 with a 20% off coupon. I wonder if their floor models are just worn out? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989890 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:45:20 +0000 Ash 989890@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@scg00387: kind of loving this chair!<br /> <a href="http://www.nfm.co/DetailsPage.aspx?productid=37345758#Tabs" rel="nofollow">http://www.nfm.co/DetailsPage.aspx?productid=37345758#Tabs</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989867 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:38:01 +0000 immabeetoo 989867@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: yeah their sales people are annoying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989857 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:35:03 +0000 Ash 989857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Cara M. 17: Do you remember how much it cost?? I wonder why the ones we sat it were so... yucky?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989847 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:32:30 +0000 Cara M. 17 989847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: Ours hasn't come in yet, but we ordered the little castle treasure recliner from BBB. We sat in it in the store and it was soooo comfortable. It takes forever to come in though -- 8-12 weeks! It's been 9 so far and still waiting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989812 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:19:55 +0000 Ash 989812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: Oh crap! I forgot about that. Hmmmmmmm! We would probably have to take a trailer down. I wish I had a personal shopper to do this for me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989805 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 10:17:06 +0000 mrskc 989805@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: well since you're crib is there, you might as well go back! And crib boxes are huge! So was the box that the glider came in. We managed to get both home in our Ford Ranger. Oh and it took 12 weeks for our glider to get in so keep that in mind too. </p> <p>@MrsH: thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989731 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:59:45 +0000 Ash 989731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsH: stalk away, mama! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989725 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:57:24 +0000 MrsH 989725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: I'm stalking this thread because I think I want to get one of these :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989724 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:56:43 +0000 MrsH 989724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: that chair is so cute!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989719 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:55:55 +0000 Ash 989719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: That's the way I look at it too. Our crib is being held there because it wouldn't fit in my car (doh!) and my sil was going to bring it back but maybe I could talk dh into just going back. Hahaha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989714 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:54:35 +0000 Ash 989714@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. bird: I agree! I'm so torn! I love the price of the ones you linked me to on my diy thread but I can't sit in them which scares me a little!</p> <p>@scg00387: We went to Homemakers after going to BBB and the saleman really irked me (pretty much told me I'm too picky and I'll never find anything I like - I want what I want if I'm spending 600 bucks on something) so I left! But after looking on the nfm site, they have some incredible deals! Holy smokes!! Thanks!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989703 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:52:18 +0000 mrskc 989703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: oh yikes. 3 hours is a ways. We drove 2 hours to get ours. I know even then DH wasn't too thrilled about it. but he agrees now that the chair was worth the hassle. I also looked at the ones sold on Walmart online. The enchanted brand I think is made by Little Castle. I just went with LC at BBB since you could pick custom fabric at no extra charge and with the 20% off it was not much more than the ones I was looking at online. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989682 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:43:34 +0000 immabeetoo 989682@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Ash: I was so so bummed that we couldn't order one from BBB - we lived in Kansas while I was pregnant but didn't know where we'd be moving once baby was born. </p> <p>I have read great things about this one <a href="http://www.nfm.com/DetailsPage.aspx?productid=35556810" rel="nofollow">http://www.nfm.com/DetailsPage.aspx?productid=35556810</a> that you can order off amazon, it was backordered when I needed one and we got this one <a href="http://www.nfm.com/DetailsPage.aspx?productid=35097955" rel="nofollow">http://www.nfm.com/DetailsPage.aspx?productid=35097955</a> and it's worked out really well so far (8 months) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989673 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:40:34 +0000 Ash 989673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@pelikila: Thanks - I like that yours reclines... that was a feature dh wanted! I wonder why the ones in the store were so crappy!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989672 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:40:34 +0000 mrs. bird 989672@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have one at work, it's been used for a minimum of 45mins/day for 8 years and it's still goin strong (it does have a bit of a creek sound now &amp; be careful in blue jeans because the blue will rub off on the arms). I prefer a small pillow for my lower back when rocking for extended periods and a nursing stool is perfect to rock with. I like it very much, but def find best chairs to be more comfortable when I've sat in them at stores but that is probably just a personal preference. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989666 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:39:06 +0000 Ash 989666@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrskc: Thanks! I love that chair! I wonder if DH would take me back to BBB - it's a 3hr drive :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/little-castle-glider#post-989663 Mon, 05 Aug 2013 09:38:08 +0000 pelikila 989663@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have the Little Castle Cottage glider/recliner in green toile. It was the right size for me (not too wide) and the arms come up high enough once I sit that they felt supported during breastfeeding rather than too low or high. We also bought the ottoman but that was a waste as it just sits in the closet since we the cottage is also a recliner. <a href="http://www.littlecastleinc.com/gallery/product/10" rel="nofollow">http://www.littlecastleinc.com/gallery/product/10</a></p> <p>ETA: we've had ours for 2.5 years and I plan to just reupholster it should be have baby #2 - it is that comfortable. </p>
