Storkcraft Tuscany Glider and Ottoman - Smooth GREENGUARD Gold Nursery

Our review of the Storkcraft Tuscany Glider and Ottoman finds it best suited to parents who want a comfortable, low-maintenance nursery chair with proven indoor air safety. The single biggest reason to buy is its GREENGUARD Gold certification, which means the upholstered finish has been screened for thousands of chemicals and VOCs, a real plus in a baby room. The set combines solid wood construction, a smooth gliding motion and a bonus lumbar cushion, making it a practical everyday place for feeding, soothing and short naps.

Key Features

• GREENGUARD Gold Certified: Contributes to cleaner indoor air by being screened for over 10,000 chemicals and VOCs, which is important in a nursery environment.
• Solid wood craftsmanship: Built with a wooden frame intended for long-lasting use and a classic look that fits nursery or home decor.
• Smooth gliding motion: The glider and ottoman provide a quiet, steady glide for comfortable rocking and feeding sessions.
• Bonus lumbar cushion: Included lumbar pillow improves lower back support during extended sitting periods.
• Convenient side pockets: Padded arm cushions have storage pockets to keep small nursery essentials or reading material within reach.
• Safety and finish testing: Applied finish is tested to meet or exceed applicable ASTM and CPSIA safety standards.

Who It's For

The Tuscany is aimed at new parents and caregivers who prioritize air quality and a comfortable, traditional nursery chair that is ready to use with minimal fuss. Its included lumbar cushion and ottoman make it a good fit for late-night feedings, settling infants and for anyone who wants a supportive seat in a child-focused space.

Those who need ultra-heavy-duty seating beyond the 250 pound recommended maximum, or who expect commercial-grade or specialty upholstery options, may want to consider higher capacity or custom models instead. Expectations for premium upholstery or bespoke materials should be tempered; this set is built with safety and everyday comfort in mind rather than luxury fabric choices.
