LOVE that rocker, and ordered it for the den which has a peacock/navy/mustard color palette. I had fabric all ready purchased from Britex to cover the cushions since the colors @ Urban Outfitters didn’t really blow my skirt up – love the charcoal, but not for that room. Anyway, it arrived missing a chunk out of the front left foot. A CHUNK. And the broken piece of wood wasn’t in the box so it was packaged that way. Boo! I took it back and am now repurposing a different chair from my aunt’s home. This is all to say, yes that rocker is gorgeous, and I hope the next person who orders it doesn’t have the same experience I did. I can’t wait to see how you use it!

Hey, I have that chair! It’s nice looking, and really comfortable for short people. If anyone is thinking of buying this chair without sitting in it first (like I hastily did), make sure to look at the measurements. It’s a very short, low-to the ground chair. The scale is much smaller in person than what I pictured from the website pics. It looks especially small next to our normal sized couch.

But I am SUPER excited to see what you do with it in this series! I haven’t put much work into our living room yet, and could use some fresh ideas.

I actually just saw this rocker on sale at UO today. I sat in it to see how comfortable it is as the price was really good ($159). It wasn’t too comfortable…but I do love the look of it.
