Top 10 Algae Scrapers

10. Delta Children Middleton

You’ll love bonding with baby in the Delta Children Middleton (about $400), or simply relaxing in it on your own. The nail head trim will be right at home in a western-themed room, but the fabric shows stains easily, so drape a blanket over it before feedings.

9. Naomi Home Odelia

The Naomi Home Odelia (about $230) looks high-end enough to sit in your entertainment room, but has all the functionality you need for feeding and soothing a cooing cutie. It boasts a moderate recline and a footrest you can pop out when you please

8. Nursery Works Sleepytime

You get the classic, exposed wooden legs many want, but with a modern seating area that’s cozy and spacious in the Nursery Works Sleepytime (around $499). It has a lumbar pillow — something recently-pregnant women are sure to appreciate.

7. Delta Children Emerson

The Delta Children Emerson (about $400) is so sophisticated that you’ll want to hold onto it once your baby grows up and you convert the nursery into an office. Its quilted back feels extra plush and the whole thing seems to hug you while you rock.

6. Baby Relax Double

There’s enough room for two on the Baby Relax Double (appx. $280), meaning you and your partner can sit side-by-side in awe of that little bundle of joy, or a child can join you on it for story hour. It’s also ideal for sibling bonding time.

5. Angel Line Windsor

If you’re looking for an affordable alternative to designer models, the Angel Line Windsor (about $151) fits the bill. It’s available in 16 diverse frame/cushion color combinations to complement any style, and features a sturdy construction.

4. Nursery Works Ami

Don’t let the price of the Nursery Works Ami (around $999) put you off: you’re getting multiple pieces of furniture in one. It allows you to sit beside your bassinet, rocking both you and baby at the same time, and converts into a double seat, though extra cushions are sold separately.

3. Delta Children Lancaster

Nobody ever said nursery furniture couldn’t be luxurious. The Delta Children Lancaster (around $270) is a piece you’ll want to curl up in, even when you don’t have a child in your lap. Its thick padding hugs and swaddles you, just like you do with baby.

2. Belham Living

If you’re working with a smaller room and a limited budget, then the Belham Living (appx. $129) is just right. You can easily tie a cushion onto it, though the seat is contoured to be comfortable on its own, too. Plus, it offers that classic aesthetic.

1. Dutailier Sleigh

The Dutailier Sleigh (around $592) gives nursing parents some much-deserved rest and comfort. It is a glider and ottoman combination with a reclining back, so you can put your feet up and find that perfect position while lulling a little one to sleep.
