The Monte Design Matera Glider Recliner with Espresso Base is the chair that does it all — gliding smoothly for late-night feeds, then reclining fully for the moments when you finally get to rest. Born from the best of Monte Design's Grano and Como chairs, the Matera pairs a plush, sink-in cushion system with an effortless pop-up footrest, all handcrafted by hand in Monte Design's Toronto facility. Tested in our boutique and loved by families nationwide, it's the nursery chair that grows with you long past the baby years.
Why Parents Love the Monte Matera Recliner
The Matera's plush attached back and seat cushions deliver a sink-in feel that no removable cushion can match — fluff the back cushion as needed and it returns to its full, enveloping shape. The hidden footrest handle, nestled cleanly between the seat and armrest, keeps the silhouette uncluttered until you need it. When you do, a gentle pull extends the footrest and the chair reclines to a full 64" — requiring just 12"–14" of wall clearance.
Flame retardant-free foam and Greenguard Gold certification — screened against more than 10,000 chemicals and VOCs — make this one of the safest recliners available for a nursery. The included lumbar pillow adapts to lower back, neck, or elbow support, and the chair arrives fully assembled and ready to use from the moment it's unboxed. Weight capacity: 350 lbs. Product weight: 105 lbs.

Fabric Collections — Finding Your Perfect Fit
The Matera Espresso is available in eleven distinct fabric families, each Oeko-Tex® or Greenguard certified where noted. Performance Heathered, Felt, Weave, Velvet, Bouclé, and Microfiber are all 100% polyester with stain resistance, water repellency, and a 100,000 rub count — built to outlast the baby years and beyond. The Faux Sheepskin option adds deeply textured softness at the same 100,000 rub count. For families drawn to natural fibers, the Brushed Cotton-Linen (63% cotton, 37% Belgian linen, REACH & Oeko-Tex® certified) and Organic Cotton & Recycled Polyester (45% organic cotton, 55% recycled polyester, Greenguard certified) bring a softer, more sustainable story. Premium Italian Wool — sourced from Tuscany at 70% wool, 25% nylon, 5% recycled fibre, Greenguard certified — delivers heirloom texture. Enviroleather rounds out the lineup as a wipeable, peel-and-crack-resistant vegan option rated to 200,000 rubs.
