Our two rocking chairs had been moved to the family room downstairs. We were just blessed with a new granddaughter so wanted a rocker upstairs and based on the reviews and the price range we gave this one a try. It's a very nice rocker, roomy, sturdy and comfortable. (The cushions in the photo did not come with the rocker. It's actually fairly comfortable without them but cushions are nice,)Assembly is simple but not really easy. I'll explain. I tried to assemble the rocker by myself and found that it was difficult to hold some of the pieces in place while lining up the bolts. So I had my wife help me and then everything went together fairly easily. If you separate all of the bolts, nuts, and washers and follow the directions carefully it goes rather smoothly. Only one tool is required, an Allen wrench that is included, but it's helpful if you also have a flat-bladed screwdriver on hand.I only have one very minor complaint. The screws are all recessed but there are no plugs to hide the screw heads so the screws on the outsides of the legs are visible. It's not a big deal because they are recessed, so not really all that noticeable, and I didn't deduct a star because of it but plugs would be nice. Otherwise, the chair looks great.Overall, it's a very nice chair and we can't wait to rock our new granddaughter in it.
