We’ve updated our guide on Gliders, with new models, as well as additional testing and research. We’ve decided to stick with our original choice, the Nursery Classics Landis.

Warm milk can make a world of difference in getting your baby to take a bottle, and a bottle warmer is a great way to achieve this without making a mess of your microwave or splashing lukewarm tap water all over your kitchen. The best such bottle warmer we tested was the Dr. Brown’s Natural Flow Deluxe Bottle Warmer.

Full-size high chairs tend to be bulky, which is great for stability and comfort, but cumbersome for on-the-go parents. A portable high chair that is safe, easy-to-attach, and lightweight makes feeding baby a breeze when you’re away from home. The easy-to-use-and-attach Inglesina Fast Table Chair came in as our top…
For first-time parents, dealing with a baby with a stuffy nose can become a first-rate nightmare. Even the mildest-natured little one can become a crying monster when they can’t breathe and are dripping snot.
No new parent can stand laying their baby down in a crib and just walking away. Having a good video monitor can offer an addictive sense of security—a robo eye that can see your baby in the dark—leaving your conscience free to binge on Netflix in the next room. After weeks of testing, we found the Withings Home to be…
If you’re selecting a bottle for feeding, I’d go with the Philips AVENT Natural ($26 for four). It has a minimalist design, a slight contoured shape and a wide and sturdy nipple that breastfed babies can transition to easily.
When used properly, a baby carrier can give you the ability to do things that you never thought possible while watching your child. After 34 hours of research and testing, the Lillebaby Essentials Baby Carrier is our pick for the best soft structured carrier, with a universally good fit, proper support for baby, and…
It’s been more than a year since we first published this guide. We added four new diaper pails to our testing, but found that our original pick is still the best choice for parents. The Ubbi Steel Diaper Pail remains the easiest to use, the most-attractive, and yes, it still holds a lot of diapers without stinking up…

Since we first published this guide a year ago, we’ve noticed only one new baby clipper on the market worth checking out. But this clipper still doesn’t compare to our original choice, the Safety 1st Sleepy Baby Nail Clipper, which still remains a safe and cost-effective choice.
Running with your baby is a good bonding experience and is convenient for everyone involved; your baby gets to see the sights while you get in a some exercise. For this guide, we’re offering two best picks, based on how much you run and what else you plan on doing with your new jogging stroller. After 30 hours of…
Since we first published this guide last year, we’ve seen several new cribs hit the market. None have delivered the same combination of value and sturdiness that we found in our original pick, Oeuf Rhea crib; it remains our top choice.
We got back in the back seat and tested 4 new infant car seats, logging an additional 6 hours of hands-on product testing. We also got our hands on the refreshed 2015 lineup of our original crop of candidates. Even without the bells and whistles of newer seats, the Chicco Keyfit 30 remains the winner in this crowded…
It’s been over a year since we first published this guide, and many new products have been released. After updated research and testing, we are resolute in our decision to choose the Moonlight Slumber Little Dreamer as nothing comes close to matching its value, lightweight design, or stain and water resistance.
