We bought two of these. It is a well-made piece of furniture and the design and instructions are pretty good. My only criticism that the holes to connect the rockers to the arm/back are huge. Much larger than necessary and create a noticeable clunk when you try to rock over them. I am going to fill them somehow because it is not acceptable as is. The holes are pretty large for a dowel, so they may get some resin or two-part epoxy.
