We got this for my newborn son's nursery. It's so much more cool looking than a clunky grandma-style glider. I wanted a piece of furniture that I would love to have around after our need to rock is finished -- this chair is perfect! We've rocked our way through his first six months -- the rocker rails give a very nice rock and it's even comfortable for my 6 foot 2" husband who weighs, er, over 250... In fact, it's my husband's favorite place to soothe baby. Diminsions are small on this chair -- but that is due to the Eames original design (you can find a certified replica on Design within Reach for over $400 and it's the same specs.) The seat itself is average sized -- the small part is the height of the chair. As long as you know it's not going to be a tall seat, you should be fine. Gorgeous white design -- we get lots of compliments; plus the small size doesn't take up too much room in the nursery, and is even easy to move to other rooms if we occasionally need to. I've even nursed in this chair comfortably!

I don't understand all the reviews of people stating the chair is small. If you're looking for a knock off of the Herman Miller Eames chair, this is EXACTLY it. So, if that's what you're looking for it's not small. I loved the Eames chair so I think it's perfect.
Great looking piece. The shell is a light (non shiny) plastic. I thought it was going to be a shiny fiberglass. Overall a cool looking chair. I have it in my home salon against a black wall! Great contrast!!!Many compliments on it.
I love this chair-we have a mid-century house but short on cash to decorate it. The chair is very cool and only took like 10 minutes-if- to put it together. We put it in our living room and everyone comments on how cool it is. I would highlly recommend this product to anyone else-if your house or condo is modern and you are into classic modern statement pieces but short on cash-which everyone is these days- go for this chair.
I used to sell the real, designer-made version of this at a furniture store in California. So many people came in and said it was too expensive for them to spend on children's furniture but the thing is this is not child-sized! It's not sized for large adults, but average to small adults (remember the real thing was made in the mid-1900s when there weren't a lot of overweight and obese individuals!). That being said, I've always wanted one but didn't have the budget so I scooped this up in a flash. It's strikingly similar to the one I sold years ago.
This is a lovely reproduction of the classic Eames rocker - white plastic as per the chairs for years now. Nice wood rocker base, and great seat. It is a small chair, as others observed, BUT it is the right size - the original size. If you want a bigger chair, one higher off the ground, or that supports your back, get one of those. This is a design classic, 1:1 scale with the original. very good price, nice finish quality. one of the four screw holes on the chair was out of line to connect with the base, but worked sufficiently for me. We will use ours as a nursing chair, but we are not very tall people. we love it.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? the matt white is matt white. small mark transfered from card board packing, and was removable with an erazor
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. the seat is plastic, with correct thickness. One of the 4 screw holes was slightly off, but worked fine.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? spot on
In lieu of spending the money for an ugly nursery glider, I decided to purchase this cute and modern looking chair for our toddler's room. Contrary to a few other reviews, I did not find this chair to be too small for me (I'm 5'3"). However, there isn't too much back support so if you plan on using this for pure relaxation purposes, this is not the chair for that purpose. In addition, the rocking motion is vastly inadequate when compared to a traditional rocking chair or glider. The motions are more of a tilt forward, tilt backward. So if you are using this to rock your baby to sleep and would like a full motion of rocking, this may not be the best option. This chair, however, is very cute and is versatile enough to be in a child's room or just as easily in a main living room.

I was saving up to by the original, but when I saw this chair I decided to buy it on a whim. The chair came quickly and was very easy to assemble (only 4 screws). The chair does sit lower to the ground that what I expected and my first thought was "kiddie furniture" and I immediately decided to return it. However, when I sat in the chair it was very comfortable and it does fit perfectly in my modern/mid-century decor -- so I decided to keep it for a few days before returning it. Lo and behold, the chair has grown on me and I
I was skeptical but the chair was delivered quickly, the box a bit damaged but the chair was perfectly intact inside. Very easy to assemble and it looks fantastic! It sits very low to the floor, so unless you have low-slung, contemporary furniture, it will look out of place with larger, taller, bulkier pieces. Very satisfied!
The chair came quickly. It was very easy to put together. It should have been packaged better. There was some rubbing on the top of the chair by the box which left a mark, but overall it is in great condition. It is smaller than the original, but you will not find a better price. If you are considering getting this for your nursery, I would reconsider. You will not have enough back and neck support to be comfortable. I put the chair in my living room. It looks great with my eclectic mix of furniture. I love the fact that it will be kid and cat proof as well. I would recommend this to others.
Small, therefore uncomfortable on the back, but nice looking.

You almost can't tell this is a fake! Obviously for this price you're not getting a licensed original, but the details are all there. I'm impressed.
My kids are having too much fun with these! I bought two but didn't intend to use them as furniture for the kids but I guess rockers have a way of attracting kids for playtime, right?
I've always drooled over this design and now all I have to do is walk in the next room to see it. Never thought that would happen! It's sturdy and well made. I love this so much.
I loved the concept of these rockers, had big dreams in my head where i would put it in my new house but when it arrived i was a little disappointed.Its small, meaning short, low to the ground.It looks like it would break if i sat on it and for ***dollars i guess i thought it would have been more substantial.(my fault for not reading hight on discription) Im keeping it anyway and putting it in the corner in the living room like i was going to.Just take measurments if you deside to buy it. Oh .. its stark white and came perfect, no scratches or blemishes.

I was highly impressed with the chair and the quick shipping from overstock. All the screw holes lined up and I had it together within mins. The chair sits much lower than I expected and looks a bit child like but I still like it. perhaps something in the item photo to show scale would have been nice.

- How accurate was the on site description of the product? the chair is totally worth the cost and is true to the description
This rocker... Well, this rocker rocks! I've admired this style for years and Overstock has this great price that makes it AFFORDABLE! Thanks so much, I love it!
This rocker is perfect for a small room. It's stylish, compact and comfy. Love it.
This chair is exactly what we were looking for (in design) for our new baby boy's room. The seat is comfortable, but the back could be a little higher to offer more support.

This is one rockin' rocker! Rocking chairs are no longer for new mothers or old grandmothers exclusively. This is a hip, versatile, modern rocking chair that looks nothing like the rocking chairs you're used to. I'm a big fan!
