Wonderful Chair

Pros: nice cushions
Cons: velcro arm rests
Model Number: Item # 479472
"The seat cushions keep its shape which is great because I love sitting in the chair. I'm not a fan of the arm rests because the arm rest have velcro holding them to the chiar and it always turns upright. The fabric is corduroy but it doesnt look anything like it."

Good value, needs correct screws

Pros: value, comfortable, quiet
Cons: screws in ottoman too short, doesn't recline, not very wide
"We just assembled this chair. I am pleased that it is comfortable, quiet and nice for the price as compared to the baby stores where you paid $250 for the ottoman alone. I do wish it could recline and lock, but I guess I'd rather not spend another $500 for these features (or get cheaper quality). The chair came very quickly and should be very easy to assemble with only 8 screws. Well.. the screws for the ottoman are not long enough and we will need to go to lowes in the morning. I read a review for a different Dutailier chair that had the same problem. They truly shipped us the wrong length of screws.. my husband was complaining about it and I went to check and if you put the screw in, it falls all the way down and does not stop. It will screw in if you don't have the wood in between though. It is frustrating but not a deal breaker. The chair also is not very wide.. definitely not very much wiggle room. We are still happy with our decision."

Design Flaw Falls Apart

Cons: poor design, falls apart
"We went through two of these chairs in the span of four months. Never again!! The design doesn't make sense - the chair arms and back are held together to the base by 3 small screws. The back detaches and peels up. We thought that our first one might have had a defect but the same thing happened with the replacement. I am a size 6, so this isn't a weight problem, it's clearly a bad design. DO NOT BUY THIS CHAIR!! You can do better at a baby store for the same price."

Biggest bang for your buck!

"My husband and I were so happy we purchased this glider! we were going to buy one from a babies store, but the ottoman by itself was $250, it was the same brand and quality as this glider from costco. It was in our house within 2-3 days of purchase. Its really comfy and great for use with baby!"

As expected

Pros: no surprises
Cons: being able to lock the glider position.
"I purchased this after reading the reviews. As mentioned in the reviews the product is easy to assemble and is good. It lacks one basic feature, being able to lock the position which is very common to most products in the market at the price range."

Poor quality

Cons: very poor quality and a major design flaw.
"For the price I paid, this product is of very poor quality. The thread inserts which joins the back rest and the seat just popped out. This is not wood but its actually board particles. The thread inserts actually help you to fix your screw. I was really shocked to see that all the three thread inserts just came out of the wood. I didnt even sit on it. While fixing the screw, I just tried to remove the screw and was really surprised to see that the thread inserts also came out along with the screw. The other parts of the chair look real good and are comfortable as well but this is a major design flaw in this chair. I dont understand how Dutailier made a very poor design. If these thread inserts could hold strongly onto the wood, then there is absolutely no problem. Really disappointed."

Didn't Like It, Would Not Recommend.

Pros: glides well
Cons: needs more cushion, footrest tips over easily, not locking mechanism on footrest
"I did some research on gliders before I bought this from Costco.com. Dutailier is a good brand and in general has positive reviews for their gliders so I bought this chair without being able to try it out first.
Overall, the chair just seems to be a bit "cheap" to me an it's not very sturdy. I not a big person, I weigh about 115 pounds and when I adjust myself in the chair there have been times when it starts to tip over. The chair was very easy to put together, my husband was able to put it together in about 10 minutes. The fabric is soft and looks okay. It looks like corduroy rather than microfiber. The cushion needs a bit of work, it could definitely use some more padding to make it more comfortable.
The footrest doesn't have a lock on it so it's constantly gliding. I've seen some footrests at stores that have a lock so that you have the option of having it not glide when you don't want it to glide. The footrest also tips over very easily which seems like a safety issue to me.
I'll be returning this product to the neighborhood Costco."

Nice Chair

"I was pleasantly surprised with this chair when we received it the other day. It was very easy to assemble and the quality seems to be very nice. The colors may be a little different than the picture, the wood a little darker and the fabric a little lighter, but it looks nice. The size is great, I'm 5'3" and was concerned about being able to touch the floor while sitting back in the chair but it fits me great. The fabric is soft and I like the design, it's cordoury but the lines are a little wavy, not totally straight. We did notice a chemical smell when we received it, but I haven't noticed it since we've gotten it set up in the baby room. I thought it was supposed to come with a locking mechanism, but ours didn't - maybe that was a different chair we were looking at and it actually doesn't matter all that much to me. All in all I'm very happy with our purchase."

Solid Chair but Has Chemical Smell

Pros: solid chair for the price
Cons: strong chemical smell
Model Number: 479472
"We received this glider and were very excited. Easy to put together and very sturdy. This glider is definitely for folks on the lean side. My husband is 6'1'' and weighs 190 and fits him comfortably but if you are above 225, you might want to opt for a larger chair.
We are returning this chair due to the intense chemical smell of the cushion which according to the manufacture needs to air out. We've waited 5 days and it still has the same intense smell. We even tried to cover it with a sheet, towel and blank (all at once) and you can still smell it when sitting in it. I bought it for my newborn and I don't want him to inhale chemicals unncessarily. The manufacture says it's related to the foam and if they ship it immediately after receiving it from the manufacturer, then it tends to have the smell. They did say the smell will go away in a week, but I'd rather find another glider with no strong chemicals in the first place. The chemicals are related to the foam and not the cover.
Other than the chemical smell, it's worth the price.
Last bit...the color of the fabric is actually lighter than the picture."

Awesome!

"Received this as a gift to use for nursing when my baby is born. The chair is super comfy. It glides great and feels really sturdy. It was also really easy to put together: my husband had it assembled in about 20 minutes. Can't wait to use it soon! It does have a slight plastic-y smell to it right now. I think its just from being stored in the plastic and will be fine once it airs out."

Good buy for the price

"My due date is the end of May.
We decided to buy a glider, but didn't want to spend a forture. This glider is perfect.
The first evening I tested it out, I almost fell asleep in it myself! My husband also loves it.
Well worth the price we paid."

Average glider...not the best

Pros: nice gliding motion, quiet, comfortable
Cons: difficult assembly, was damaged
"We purchased this chair and it came quickly. When we got it out of the box it was banged up in places, with knicks and dents in the wood. It was a little difficult to put together, definetely a two person job. I love it now that it is together and the gliding motion is smooth, quiet. Nicely matches my other nursery furniture that is also black."

gr8 CHAIR

Pros: soft, silent
Cons: color of coushions slightly diff from online photo
"I just returned another chair to costco that I purchased while pregnant. My son is 6 mths old and just started sleeping in his own room(where I had the chair). when I realized how much I disliked the previous chair-costco took it back--no questions asked--a year later w no receipt. That's why I decided to get 2nd chair from them. This chair is "basically" gr8- silent, comfy & easy to assemble. You might find a similar chair, cheaper elsewhere. But costco's customer service is priceless!!!"
