Does anyone have suggestions on good gliders, etc...? Or do you know of a good spot I could look for help on this?

We can't spend a lot (ie, I don't think we'll be spending $700 on it) but I'm hoping we can get a comfy one that works well.

We have a Dutailier brand and I love it. I'm actually sitting in it right now. My MIL thought she was being helpful and washed the bottom cushion though and then dried it in the dryer (foam cushion and all) and the cover shrunk and the cushion itself didn't dry and its kind of a mess now because nothing fits but its still comfy.

We got a cheesy BRUS-type glider, and I'm not a huge fan. It wasn't very comfortable for BFing, but now that Claire is older we rock on it and read stories. I'd go for more of a recliner/Lazy-Boy style of chair...not necessarily from a baby store. They are more comfy and are usually wider, which you'll need juggling two babies!

I will have to find the one I have online that I like. I don't remember the brand off the top of my head but I know it's Canadian. Like I said, we have 2, and I left the nicer looking one in the kids toy room and use the older dated looking one to rock my 2 year old to sleep. I have been sitting on it rocking and nursing one child or another in it for 4 years every night and it is still very comfy. The padded arm are a must, especially when they get older. The more modern one I have is just wood on the arms and it doesn't work for resting a head on.

eta: the brand we have is Shermag.

I have a lazy big like rocker and ottoman and then another upstairs not so much the cheap cheesy glider from wally world or BB R US but like it better then my expensive one since it doesn't make your body sink into it.

This is similar to the one upstairs
