I was leery of ordering such a large furniture item online before being able to try it out first. Needless to say my hours of searching online payed off and I ended up with a reasonably priced, nice glider rocker for our nursery. Everyone that has sat down in it has liked it so far and we are all shapes and sizes. I am 5’6” and if I sit all the way back in the chair my feet don’t completely touch the ground but it’s tolerable. Material is very nice and it was very easy to put together. Love the tall back.
