Customer Review: I fixed the squeak -- now a great chair for a petite adult!
Summary: 4 Stars
We already have a $300 Shermag rocker that we use in our nursery, and we got the Stork Craft Tuscany Glider/Ottoman when we wanted a 2nd chair but had less of a budget. Here are the main differences:
--- The Shermag is noticeably "plusher". The cushions are much, much softer. The Stork Craft has a pretty crunchy foam seat that needed to be broken in (not a lengthy process -- I kneeled on the cushion a few times before putting it on the seat). If, like me, you appreciate a firm cushion, you won't think this is a problem. Both chairs are attractive, and the quality of the Stork Craft fabric is nicer than I expected for the price point.
--- The Shermag is heavier and sturdier. I would be surprised if it didn't outlast the Stork Craft. (Hey, you get what you pay for!)
--- The Stork Craft was MUCH easier to assemble. Many fewer steps as the ottoman and bottom part of the chair (the glider) were fully assembled in box. My only complaint re: the assembly is that a hole was not drilled where it should have been to connect the left arm of the chair to the base. Each arm attaches in three places, and I found it to be sturdy enough without the third bolt that I didn't bother returning it. Next time my dad is over, I'll have him bring his drill and fix it for me ... no biggie. In the meantime, the arm doesn't wiggle with regular use.
--- Yes, the Stork Craft squeaks. It squeaks loudly enough to render it completely unusable. My dog actually came running in from the other room the first time I used it and started barking at the chair because she thought it was an animal, ha! The squeaking comes from the bolts on the glider part of the chair. I sprayed some WD-40 on the joints, and voila! No squeaking. If anything, I would say the gliding motion is now smoother than my Shermag.
--- The seats are different sizes. Once you have all the cushions and padding on, the Stork Craft seat is 18 inches across at the armrests and 17 inches deep, vs. the Shermag's 20 inches across and 20 inches deep. The back of the seat is longer on the Stork Craft -- 28 inches vs. 26. I am short and slightly overweight (5'4 with a long torso/short legs, size 14) and the Stork Craft fits me much better. However, I am sure the Shermag would be much more comfortable for a tall/long-legged woman, an average man, or someone more heavyset.
--- The Shermag has a lever to lock the chair in place, which I need on that chair to stand up smoothly while holding a sleeping baby since I have to scoot forward before I can touch the floor. The Stork Craft doesn't have the locking mechanism, and I thought I would miss it; but since the seat actually fits my legs, I have no problem getting in and out of the chair gracefully. (And believe me, that's a feat!)
Overall, yes, the quality is obviously nicer on a more expensive chair. But the only dealbreaker for me was the squeaking, and it was an easy, $5 fix. If you are petite and looking for a nice, inexpensive rocker, this will definitely suit your needs! If you are tall/heavyset, you will definitely need to invest in a different chair.
