Glider rocking chairs can glide back and forth due to their use of braces underneath the chair that allow for a gentle swinging motion. The movement mechanism is usually hidden under the chair and covered by the sides and back of the chair.
Safety Warning
While glider rockers are typically safer than traditional rocking chairs, injury can still occur. Children and pets should be closely monitored around glider rockers so that fingers, toes or tails do not become caught underneath the chair.
