subject: Dining room chair cushions | Dining Room Chairs [print this page] Glider rocking chairs are said to be the most comfortable of all rocking chairs. There are adult and child glider rocking chairs available. The main difference (between glider and other rocking chairs) lies in the rockers that these chairs have. The rockers of the glider rocking chair are flat on the floor and the chair moves backwards and forwards on a base, similar to a track. The glider rocking chair cushion is responsible for making the glider rocker so comfortable. The other part, which makes the glider rocking chair comfortable, is the ottoman.
Adirondack glider rocking chairs are all-weather rocking chairs. Hence, they can be used in the garden or with other outdoor furniture.
Tips for Choosing Glider Rocking Chair Cushions
Very often it has been noticed that most parts of the glider rocker do not wear out. It is the cushions which need timely re-upholstering. There are glider rocking chairs which come sans the cushions, hence the cushions have to be bought separately. When you actually decide on a glider, do inquire whether the rocker comes with the cushion. There is a myriad range available in the glider rocking chair cushion variety. Very often, it is observed that finding the right cushion can be a herculean task.
If they come with the cushions, the next step is to check if the cushions are attached permanently or are detachable. If they are the permanent ones, it is best to opt for darker colors. This is to prevent the stains from being visible on the cushions and the chair from looking soiled and dirty. In case of detachable cushions, it is a good option to check if cushions have covers on them, or can a provision made for the same? If the cushions have covers, check whether the material is washable, or to be more precise, machine washable. In case they are not machine washable, you will have to wash them physically, every time they get soiled.
