  • Home Furniture
CONT

Gliders are designed specifically for parenting, and provide a smooth, gentle back and forth motion with very little effort by mom or dad. Similar to big, padded recliners, they take up more space, but also tend to offer parents a more comfortable seat.

Domaine(s)
  • Mobilier domestique
CONT

Les chaises berçantes coulissantes sont conçues spécifiquement pour les parents, et se déplacent d’avant en arrière de façon apaisante, sans que papa ou maman n’ait besoin de faire beaucoup d’efforts. Tout comme les grands fauteuils inclinables rembourrés, elles prennent plus de place, mais elles ont également tendance à offrir aux parents un siège plus confortable.
