Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a nursery chair or glider?
A nursery chair (often a glider or nursing chair) is seating designed for feeding and settling a baby — stable base, supportive back, and a motion that is calmer than a loose lounge chair.
Which nursery chair type should I choose?
Swivel glider recliners turn on their base, glide and lean back; electric recliners recline at the press of a button; glider and footstool sets come with a matching stool; rockers give a classic rock. Choose the motion you want, then check the upright size and reclined length against your room.
Is a glider better than a nursing chair rocker?
A glider moves back and forth on its base, so the chair itself stays in place; a rocker tips on curved runners or a rocking base. Neither suits everyone: compare the motion and the size in Will it fit? on this page.
Which colours does this chair come in?
This chair comes in Dark Grey and Oatmeal. Choose a colour just above Add to basket.
Is delivery included?
Nursery chairs in this range include free delivery to the United Kingdom as stated at checkout.
Can I use a pregnancy pillow with a nursery chair?
Yes — a pregnancy or feeding pillow on your lap pairs well with a glider for night feeds; many parents keep a U-shaped pillow after birth for that reason.
What size is the Round Back rocking chair?
It is 70 cm wide, and Obaby lists the overall size as 85 × 70 × 80 cm. It weighs 17.15 kg. Allow extra room behind and in front for the rocking motion.
What is the frame made of?
A sturdy solid wood frame. Obaby lists the materials as New Zealand pine with MDF and plywood.
Can I wash the cushions?
Not in a machine: Obaby's instructions say the cushions are dry clean only. Wipe spills straight away, and clean the frame with mild detergent and warm water.
Which safety standards does it meet?
Obaby lists EN 71-3, the UK Furniture and Furnishings (Fire Safety) Regulations and EN 12520:2015.
