We purchased this lovely rocking chair for our 2 year old great granddaughter. The photographs of the chair and the other furniture in this Zoomie Kids line are quite nice, but the chair itself was even more lovely and the painted surface seems very durable. One very pleasant surprise is that the chair is bigger than I thought it would be and should serve our great granddaughter for quite a few years. Assembly was easy, although we did feel that the bar that ties the two rocker legs together could have been a tighter fit and we did have one screw hole that had to be redrilled so that the screw could be driven deep enough to not mar the floor. The whimsical design is so cute that we already have our sights set on buying the matching toy chest for our little one for Christmas.
