    Rocking chair for nursery

    Hi everyone

    Can anyone recommend a nice (reasonably priced) rocking chair for baby's room?

    I really had my heart set on the Herman Miller rocking chair, but I can't justify spending that much $$$ on ONE chair!

    TIA.

    Not sure where you live but have a look at Baby Bunting or the Ikea web sites. They both have good rocking chairs.
    DD has the Baby Bunting one and it is really comfy.

    I have the Babyhood Sovereign Glider. Super comfy and they are about $500. Very different to what you were looking at though but a lot more comfortable IMHO!

    Good luck with the search!

    we got one when DS was little & needed lots of cuddles on sale at Toys r us....they have different ones on sale throughout the year. It was great, reclines & came with foot rest that moves also....though it did take up lots of room. Now that he's older we have an ikea chair that is super comfy, rocks a bit & best of all matches his room & doesn't take up heaps of space. Both were only around the $100 mark.

    Thanks all - I really like the look of the Herman Miller chair, but I'm concerned about the comfort level.

    Does anyone actually own this, or know anything about its comfort levels?

    Thanks
