The 15 Best Nursery Glider Recliners to Get Your Baby’s Room Ready, According to an Expert

• Pros: high back, heavy base for swivel
• Cons: fabric will show stains, reviewers say it doesn’t always stay reclined
• Dimensions: 39.5 inches high by 30.5 inches wide by 34 inches long

DaVinci glider recliners are a favorite among parents, and the Piper, with its 26-inch high seat back, is the pick for those on the taller side. “I’m six feet and my hubs is six feet two inches,” one reviewer says. “I searched long and hard for a chair that was wide enough that we didn’t feel cramped and tall enough to rest our heads. This is it!” The downside to that is it sits a little deep for people on the shorter side, and they might find it tricky to get the recliner back down. The Piper’s sturdy build, however, is the perfect base for its 360-degree swivel, forward-and-backward glide and comfy recline position. The design is so straightforward and classic on this one that it’ll likely last you far beyond the baby years.

• Pros: easy assembly, lower seat
• Cons:粘性的躺椅上,维可牢沙发套可以拉
• Dimensions: 41.5 inches high by 29 inches wide by 38 inches long

Another beauty from DaVinci, the Arlo recliner has a lower seat, so it should help accommodate shorter caregivers. The Arlo’s metal base allows you to smoothly swivel and glide in any direction so you can be comfortable no matter what position you’re holding baby. The water-repellent and stain-resistant fabric will help keep any number of fluids that are part of caring for a baby from leaving their mark, while its Greenguard Gold certification means its been tested for harsh chemicals and is safe for you and your little one.Though the armrests are a little lacking in width and padding, that does leave room to tuck a pillow for support—and given its classic wingback design, we think we can overlook the armrests.

• Pros: ergonomic backrest, priced well
• Cons: narrow seat and arms, can be squeaky
• Dimensions: 39 inches high by 32 inches wide by 31 inches long

This is a great budget pick that swivels, glides and rocks back and forth. Its simple design boasts an ergonomic backrest, a range of reclining options, comfy arm rests and some handy side pockets. Its resilient foam padding is upholstered in easily maintainable polyester fabric that comes in a variety of colors, ranging from neutral beige to a beautiful rose pink, so you can add that special pop to your baby’s room.

• Pros: built-in massager, easy-to-clean polyester fabric
• Cons: doesn't rotate a full 360 degrees
• Dimensions: 39 inches high by 28.5 inches wide by 36 inches long

This chair had us at "massager," and that's like what got your attention, too. Yes, in between feedings and wailing marathons, you can sit back and truly relax in this reclining nursery glider that doubles as a massage chair. Because, let's be honest, parents to new babies don't usually have a spa day in their future—although they certainly deserve one the most. So allow this plush seat to pamper you with its eight massage modes, four-point vibration and five adjustable intensity levels. Throw in the 240-degree swivel, ergonomic back rest and easy-to-clean polyester upholstery, and this option may ease your baby-growing pains in more ways than one. Better yet, it's friendlier to your budget than many others.

• Pros: great price, sleek design, super soft fabric
• Cons: reviewers say it can feel a little unsturdy
• Dimensions: 40.50 inches high by 27 inches wide by 35.25 inches long

Our baby gear expert Rebekah Kimminau ofThe Baby Gear Consultantmakes this her top budget pick, calling it “affordable, comfortable and supportive.” DaVinci has purposefully designed this one to transition to any other part of your home beyond the baby years, making it an even better value for your money. “At five feet two inches, I wanted a chair that my feet would hopefully be able to touch the ground [in] and that mine and my six-foot husband’s heads would be able to sit against the headrest, and this chair meets all of those needs,” says one happy customer. Along with its affordable price tag, it comes with aGreenguard Gold certification, meaning the furnishing has been tested “for over 10,000 chemicals and passes the most stringent emission standards,” so you can feel good about bringing it into your home.

Trying to find a chair that glides *and* reclines within a small space is tricky, but this Dream On Me glider recliner does the trick—and swivels, too, for extra versatility and comfort. At 29.5 inches wide, it’s a few inches smaller than most of the chairs on this list, but still a comfy 30 inches long, meaning it won’t feel like you’re cramming you and your baby in. Plus, it has side pockets for extra storage, which is especially important in smaller rooms. Reviewers can’t get over the easy assembly, comfortable foam filling and the quality for the price, so it sounds like you can’t go wrong.

New parents, to the extent that they’re able to, will happily spend money to make the transition to parenthood easier (and help solve the puzzle that is a newborn). This customizable chair is among those splurge-worthy essentials. Yes, it starts at a steep $1,799 but it’s worth it if you have the funds. To start, the ergonomic swiveling and reclining chair is solidly made with a plywood engineered wood frame. It comes in a whopping 36 fabric and color options, and is designed with comfy sloped arms, an adjustable headrest and extra lumbar support.

This glider has an electric keypad to control its functions on the *inside* of the arm rest, so you can easily see what you’re doing, even with a baby in one arm. Our expert says it’s her favorite electronic glider recliner thanks to its support pillow for your back and the very smooth glide motion. Outside of its great tech features, it’s also plenty roomy, and we love the neutral wooden base and boucle finish (we’re partial to the olive green color)—great, soothing natural textures for a nursery.

• Cons: no gliding motion with footrest up
• Dimensions: 42 inches high by 33 inches wide by 37 inches long

When you’ve got a sleeping baby in your arms, the last thing you want to worry about is stuffing an extra pillow behind your head so you can get a few Zs in, too.

This one looks the least like a nursery chair (seriously, did this come fromArticle?!), so it can easily be moved to any room in your house (especially if you choose the beautiful vegan leather upholstering). You can choose between manual or electronic versions—the latter of which comes with the all-important USB charging port, crucial for all the late-night “why won’t my baby sleep?!” Googling you’ll be doing in this thing.

The boucle finish and arched back give it stylish flair, while its foam-filled cushions, sturdy handmade frame and quiet electronic recline get the job done on all fronts.
