Wooden bases and textured fabrics such as teddy-fleece, corduroy and bouclé help chairs like the iL Tutto Frankie move easily from nursery to lounge room.
Looking After Your iL Tutto Chair
Regular care keeps your nursery chair comfortable and looking fresh. Always check the care instructions for your specific model.
Vacuum regularly - Use a soft brush attachment to lift dust and crumbs from the seat and seams.
Treat spills promptly - Blot with a damp cloth and mild soap rather than rubbing. The iL Tutto Fabric Care Kit is made for these fabrics.
Unplug electric models - Switch off and unplug electric chairs before cleaning, and keep the cord out of children's reach.
Keep little hands clear - Don't let children play on the chair or operate the recline or footrest.
What to Check Before You Buy:
- Manual or electric recline
Manual chairs don't need power and are often lighter. Electric chairs recline at the push of a button and usually include USB charging.
- Swivel and charging
Swivel range and USB ports vary by model, so check each listing if these features matter to you.
- Size and space
Allow room for the chair to recline fully. Electric recliners need space behind them, for example iL Tutto recommends around 70cm clearance from the wall for the Henry Plus. If your nursery is small, the Henry has one of the narrower footprints in the range.
- Backrest feel and fabric
Taller parents may prefer a firm, high backrest like the Chelsea, while others prefer a softer, cushioned back like the Quinn or Billie.
