Wal Mart glider
I finally got mine (well it was at my MILs house for a few weeks while we were painting).
OK Here is my quickie review after sitting in it for the bulk of last night:
When I sit in it it seems less cumbersome than the dutailier gliders to BF in. The Dutailier seemed like the arms were way to high for BF w/ the boppy comfortably. This is better proportioned.
The fabric is rough, but seems easy to clean. It feels like muslin. I will try to steam it before the baby comes home to soften it & to get any remnant dust out of it.
The cushions are a little harder than the Dutailier, but not uncomfortable. I do feel like I will get a small pillow to support my lower back though.
The arms are padded well.
The back is higher by about 6" than the Dutailier, which is good for me b/c the top of the Dutailier was in the middle of my back & this one cradles my head.
The rocking motion was nice & smooth & does not need a lot of room to get a good "rock" out of it. The ottoman also rocks.
OK I hope this helps someone. It was definitely worth the $79 plus $60 in delivery. It says you can get it delivered to a store for free, but it took longer to come in that way when we ordered.

Nice. I actually had looked at this one before but $79 is a great deal.

Re: Wal Mart glider
It really is, considering the Dutailier one I wanted was $600 + $150 for the ottoman

Re: Wal Mart glider
Oh, this is nice. Does it reach to your DH's head too? We really don't want one that doesn't cradle both of our heads, you know? He's just under 6-foot.

Yes, and my DH is 5'11"
He loved it & found it very comfy for him too & not too "girly"

Hmm, I may seriously have to consider this. You can't beat this price at all, even with shipping. Do you know what the return policy is though, in case we don't like it for some reason?
You should get commission!

Re: Wal Mart glider
I ordered it this morning!!! In tan. I thought about the blue one but then that would be hard to match later on if we move it to another room in the house.

Good for you! I'm still debating it, I showed DH last night (he was distracted by other things), showed him what a good deal was and the OP's review of it, and he liked it, but I tried to push him to make a decision and he didn't. I don't want to miss out though!
