Great rocking chair, as other reviewers have noted. We had to get a couple of screws replaced in order to finish assembling, and the company sent them very quickly. With a 4" cushion, this is a nice chair for hip patients -- higher seat than most. I'm 5'1" and it's a bit too high for me, but my taller hip-patient partner finds it perfect. Not used to keeping wood outside, so will get covers and make sure to take care of it. Looks so nice. We have a very small (4' x 13') apartment balcony and it fits fine with a lounger and 30" table, so . . . not too big.
