I bought this chair in the gray and absolutely LOVE IT! The rocker feature was unexpected and a very pleasant surprise! I'm 5'7" and curvy and this chair is sooo comfy. It's perfect if you're on the generously proportioned side or more petite. The side width and depth is EXACTLY what I wanted. Many barrel chairs are too shallow for my taste. The added design flair on the armrests is so elegant and works beautifully with my transitional design pallet with rustic touches (reclaimed wood mantle, dark walnut hardwoods). The chair was delivered very quickly, packaged well and arrived in pristine condition. I was hesitant due to the price tag, but honestly... it's a great value for the quality and design. I'm ordering another one today!
