Finally a glider with a lifespan
We all think that we'll use our baby gliders once the little ones become big kids, but if your glider looks anything like most glider chairs, then I'm here to tell you that, no. You won't.

However Q Collection, as part of Q Collection Junior, has just introduced the Alberto Glider chair which is eco-friendly, cozy, and gorgeous. I swear this glider chair can actually make the transition out of the nursery and into the living room when you're ready to snuggle up with something other than your baby-- like a good book or a cup of Darjeeling.

On the practical side, the Belgian linen slipcover comes in three neutral colors and is machine washable so no one will ever know about that unfortunate projectile vomiting incident.

Yes, it's fairly pricey at nearly $2000. But for furniture that will be around from pre-school to pre-med I think this one is worth it.--Betsy

You'll find Alberto Glider online at Q Collection Junior along with a list of retailers in your area.
