Love this chair.  I read previous reviews and I have not experienced any difficulty with the chair remaining in location while rocking.  My husband indicated it was easy to assemble.  There were no missing or extra parts.  The chair came without any damage.

Pros: Beautiful mission style piece of furniture
Cons: If you are a couch potato and want a "comfy" pice of furniture to "sink into" this is not the chair for you!.  It provides a nice upright position and firm support for the back.
