They’re beautiful and were pretty easy to assemble, but I have to plant my feet on the porch floor while rocking to prevent the chair from pitching forward. I like putting my feet up in the seat while I rock, so I guess I prefer the center of gravity to be further back in the chair.  It’s also possible that the chair is perfectly fine that it pitches forward because the floor of my porch slopes away from the house.. will try rocking in other areas of the house to see if that’s the case. Either way, it’s not bad enough to send them back, just a little disappointed..
