Know before you buy
Unlike a rocker that pivots on curved runners, this glider uses a specialized mechanism to move back and forth on a flat plane. This provides a smoother, more consistent motion that is generally quieter and less likely to scuff your floors.
Yes, the cushions are designed for maintenance. They feature a loose design with snaps to keep them in place, and the seat cushion includes a zipper, allowing you to remove the foam core if you need to clean or refresh the fabric.
The 43-inch high back provides full-body support, allowing you to rest your head and neck comfortably while seated. It is particularly beneficial for taller individuals or those looking for extra lumbar and upper-back stability.
Absolutely. You can select from different solid hardwoods, such as Oak or Cherry, and choose from a variety of finishes. This allows you to coordinate the glider with the specific wood tones already present in your home.
Yes, the optional matching ottoman is designed with a gliding mechanism that mirrors the motion of the chair. Using both together creates a synchronized, fluid experience that maximizes comfort.
