lol well I don't THINK I do have that exact brand... but what I have looks VERY similar! (but not identical).

I bought mine thinking it was a real splurge... didn't REALLY need it. Well I just love it. Being able to swivel AND glide is a god-send. Must admit I don't use the ottoman a heap (I just use a little footstool to stabilise my feet & lift my knees - I'm a shorty).

But honestly, I love it to bits. I've heard others say they didn't get much use/enjoyment out of theirs, so I guess everyone's different.

In regard to trying it out, I would definitley look to sit in it if you can. I found some fitted me far better than others, and you really want to be comfy in it! Dunno what stores are in Brissie, but most decent size baby stores seem to stock glider chairs.

GL,
