Help finding a nursing glider! Do you have one that you love?

This chair will sit in our living room and be my primary location for breastfeeding, it will also be the only comfortable piece of furniture on our first floor and I will likely live in it postpartum (our couch is meh).

Looking for something with the following:

  • good for short people ~ 5'3"
  • I can sit in it cross legged
  • really supportive for back, neck, shoulders, lumbar (lumbar is least important since I can get a lumbar pillow)
  • Greenguard gold or similar certified
  • Not sure I need recline, but would love a footrest (do I need recline? Do I need power recline?!)
  • Do any of these have a rock or swivel lock? I want to be able to sit with my feet up in the chair/cross legged but not be rocking or rotating (our floors are not perfectly level and rotating is what happens in my office chair)

Aside from Ikea, Crate & Barrel, and Pottery Barn, are there other locations where I can try these in person?
