Rocking Chairs

ROCKING CHAIR SHOPPING TIPS
When shopping for a rocking chair you need to consider the other styles and colors in the area you plan on placing it to make sure it will fit in. As for the chair itself, you should also think about who is going to be primarily using it and how well it will fit their height, body shape and weight. Before you buy a rocking chair you want to make sure that it is well built. Key areas to look at are the back, arms and base. The back and arms of the rocker should fit well into the seat and not wobble easily when normal pressure is applied. The base of the rocking chair should be reinforced where the joints come together and preferably be anchored with screws. As for the runners on the bottom that allow the chair to rock; they should be smooth and rock evenly. As a rule, a hardwood rocker such as oak is going to be more durable than a softwood such as pine. It is also a good idea to sit in the chair for a while and rock in it as you would at home to make sure it really feels comfortable.
