I ordered two of the rocking chairs for my deck . They're very nice looking, big and heavy - there's nothing skimpy about them. The assembly was relatively easy. The only "but", and it's a big one, is that they're just not real comfortable. You probably won't want to sit and rock for hours. The back of the chair curves in the wrong place, not just for me but my friends and family have said the same thing. I've bought cushions for the seats which might help by changing where my back hits the chair... And they look so good we decided to keep them and use them as extra seating.
This rocking chair was easy to assemble. The chair itself is wide and comfortable. As advertised, it is stained- but it is a smooth wood finish. We got two and they look fantastic.
We love our rocking chairs on the front porch. The seats are very wide, giving anyone that sits down plenty of room to feel comfortable. The backs are high and arched like they were made specifically for your bodies comfort. I would recommend this product to my friends and family for the quality and price.

I bought two of these chairs and I am really happy I did. They look amazing on my front porch! Very classic and quaint. The stain is very pretty too. The picture is a good representation. As for the reviews that say they are uncomfortable, I don't believe it is anything that can't be fixed with some chair pillows. I bought them more for decor rather than comfort but I can still see myself sitting in them for 30 mins or so. The seat is very wide and spacious. Overall, I'd definitely recommend if you are looking for something decorative rather than something to sit in for long periods of time.
If you've ever yearned to hone your carpentry skills, order a couple of these gems and your set. First you'll probably notice a couple of minor split pieces. If you've got some good waterproof wood glue, get it out and put them back in place. If not, go get some, you'll want it for the rest of the job. While you're there, get a wood chisel if you don't own one-now's a good time to learn, right? Once they're out of the box, you'll notice that it's actually pretty decent wood, and is better than your typical furniture in a box. Assembly starts with using three small screws to attach the back brace to the seat. Don't tighten the screws all the way yet. Add some wood glue along the joint. that joint will hold a lot longer. Now you line up the back and seat and put them on a side rail. Again, glue in the joints is your friend. These are not panels you want to have some give, these need to be solid. Before you add the glue though, test fit the joints. I had one tenon cut to long, and one too narrow. Luckily I do own a wood chisel and a couple of taps later, all was well. Now that it's test fit and ready, take the panels loose, add glue to the joints, put them back together, and use the toggle type bolts to snug them up. Now repeat for the other side frame. Now add the rockers. Again, test first, trim if needed, then glue and screw. These are a little fussy to do-if you can get it to counter height, laying on its side, with the rocker you're attaching on the bottom side, hanging over the edge, it'll go pretty quickly. Have a narrow magnet ready too, in case you have to fish one of the "nuts" out of the hole. Now you're done...unless you want to use it outside, then you've got to decide. Polyurethane, Spar Varnish, or just let it weather? All in all, it wasn't that tough to do, and they do feel fairly solid. As noted by a couple of other reviewers 1-they aren't that comfortable-buy cushions 2-they're good sized. The weight limit is 275, and that's about the biggest person who will be comfortable in them. 3-If they'd put some darn PLUGS in there to fill in the holes left by the screws, it would improve the quality 500 percent. Seriously, this thing is three dollars (plugs and a bottle of glue) away from being a great product.
I just received two patio rockers and I simply love them. They look exactly as pictured on the website and were very easy to assemble. I was impressed with the weight and durability of the rockers as well. I highly recommend this product. greatofferstock.com, thusfar, is 2 for 2 in quality satisfaction in our house. Last year's Gazebo was a big hit and now these rockers are a wonderful addition to our "outdoor room." Thanks Overstock!
The chair is very nice. Strong and heavy wood, but the instructions were not very clear. I thought the screws that came with the chair were too short, but my teenage son figured out how the end piece on the screw fit into the chair so that the screws were long enough. If it had not been for him, I would have given up putting the chair together. I would have given the chair five stars if it had not been for the instructions. Other than that, the chair is beautiful and just what I wanted.
I bought this idenitcal rocker at a club member store a few years ago. It's withstood the test of time & seasons beautifully. I love this rocker so much I bought 2 more from Great Offer Stock.com. It is easy to assemble and is very sturdy. I reccomend applying a wood seal if used outside.
Beautiful, solid, good quality rocker!
Beautiful. Sturdy. Comfortable. I love that they are wide and deep enough that I can curl up my feet on the seat as well with a cozy blanket.
I bought two of these chairs for my front porch. They were easy to put together. Very sturdy. They are holding up well in the weather, but they are on a covered porch. Also a very beautiful stained wood color.
Item was well packaged. Since I am pretty good at assembling things, I looked forward to assembly this chair from the moment I received it. The diagram was a few pictures with no words of instruction, but the chair came together easy with the exception of the back part portion which I had to examine the diagram photo closely and still was not sure if I had it on together correctly. After hit and miss with the back part of the the chair, it game together ready for the final personal test of sitting and rocking. It is a very solid chair and I like the color of the wood. My girlfriend complained that it did not rock back far enough. It did feel like it had a flat spot when rocking it, but overall I am happy with the chair and recommend it to others who want a nice solid rocking chair.
Easy to assemble. Nice wide seat. Rocks smoothly-no bumps.
These are heavy and very comfortable rockers for my new fro t porch. The acacia wood is a beautiful golden color, just as in the photo. The chairs are even more comfortable with the addition of cushions which I bought separately. These chairs are a little tricky and time-consuming to assemble, but I got the job done.
Quality of the chair looks fine ---- machining of the recessed connectors is a nightmare - most line up, bit a few are so off line that I'm about ready to give up and just get a few 4 inch wood screws to complete the assembly
The rocker looks better than the picture. The quality is wonderful, the finish is nice and smooth to touch. It is a large rocker, like "Papa Bear" size.
This took about 40 minutes to put together, but I did it alone. The seat is not comfortable, so I would recommend a seat cushion and a back pillow too. The wood is very good quality. My husband loved it.
While this is a traditional porch rocker, my husband and I have no intention of putting it outside. We are keeping it in the livingroom instead. It arrived quickly and my husband was able to assemble it easily. It seems solid and well-made and we think it's beautiful!
Easy construction took very little time. Constructed they are a solid piece of furniture. This is well worth the money and is a great patio rocker.
This rocker is a nice sturdy attractive piece of furniture which you can use out under a porch in the summer or inside your home. I do recommend pillows for comfort. I love rocking chairs and this one is a good size seat both in length and width. Also I like the high back. I liked this so much I bought another one.
