Gliders...

Where did you get yours and around how much was it? We looked at Bellini yesterday (where we bought the crib and dresser) but thought $1k was a little much for a glider. Thoughts?

We got the shermag cherry glider from BRU. It reclines and is sooo comfy! We were very lucky that my grandmother bought it for us. It's $350 normally but she got it on sale for I think 275. You can look for a 20% off coupon which would make it about the same price.

What? Which Bellini? We ordered ours about 2 weeks ago and they said they had a "special" and it was 399 with the ottoman... We went to Manhasset one.

Ah, no way! We were at the one in Melville this weekend!! I was looking at the plusher ones, the ones without the wood. Honestly, the lady was not being very helpful with the chairs in general - maybe she didn't make commission on them or something, LOL. She didn't tell us anything about a special. Maybe we should go back and look again!!!

Oh well maybe because they were non- wood... Maybe call Manhasset and tell them you purchased furniture and wanted to know their price. Worth a shot Chat Icon

Re: Gliders...

Craig's list for $40. It's a wooden glider with padding and I had an ottoman that my friend recovered for me. I didn't really use it all that much when DD was born, but it was also up in her room and she slept in our room for the first 9 months. I spent most of my time on the couch with her. We've never really rocked her to sleep or anything so for us it worked out. I do know people who have beautiful gliders in their nursery's and live in them, though! Ours is covered in a ton of clothing right now because I keep putting off switching DD's closet from winter to spring clothes... I've really gotta do that because the mess is driving me bonkers.

Re: Gliders...

Our glider was pricey, but it was by far the most comfortable one that we looked at in the store. We checked out quite a few gliders at BRU and maybe 1 or 2 other stores. We bought a Dutailier glider. I used it a lot, especially at the beginning with nursing and also just to rock DS to sleep. For us, it was worth spending the extra money.

Hi Bellini buddy Chat Icon

We registered for ours at Buy Buy Baby, it was actually a big pricier than the ones we found at Bellini BUT the one we registered for at Buy Buy Baby reclines, which was a necessity for us.

I think the total including the ottoman was $599.

Re: Gliders...

We got our Shermag from Target. Its the standard one but its perfect bc my 6'4 290lb hubby fits in it. I think we paid around 150 and with our Target card got 5% off and free shipping.

Re: Gliders...

I got my glider and ottoman on sale on black friday at BRU for $150. I wouldn't have spent too more than that, it does the same job as all the others but doesn't recline (that wasn't a necessity for me).
