Many home products emit volatile organic compounds (VOC), which are gasses that contribute to indoor air pollution. For example, think of the scent that you’d associate with new carpet, dry cleaning, paint, and even furniture. Many VOCs, both scented and unscented, can cause health problems—especially for infants and children, which is why we recommend choosing a glider that is sustainably made. I bought these on sale as a scratch & dent because I figured they would inevitably get dinged up. Initially, I needed these to help my family get into a lifted 4Runner. However, the longer I have them, the more I realize how useful they are for other things like tying things to the roof or even washing it. Aside from being an excellent choice for small spaces, we love that this glider can be customized. First, it’s available in seven colors ranging from light gray to lilac. It also reclines to multiple positions, which allows different family members to recline it to their individual needs. However, the footrest can be difficult to put down, which can be problematic for moms who are newly postpartum and rebuilding their core strength. Another certification to consider is CertiPUR-US, which recognizes that the foam used to make a glider padded and comfortable is made without a variety of harmful chemicals, flame retardants, or phthalates, and emits VOCs at a level of less than 0.5 parts per million. Many of the gliders on our list, such as the DaVinci Piper Recliner and Swivel Glider, are made with CertiPUR-US foam.

Just because you have a small nursery doesn’t mean a glider is not an option. The Evolur Raleigh Glider is perfect for small spaces because it’s the lightest glider on our list and is just 31 inches wide, making it one of the more slender options we chose. Despite being on the smaller side, this glider swivels 360 degrees, making it convenient for parents to grab nearby items without getting up.
