A rocking chair with no stop will keep going if you push it. Lean back to look at the sky and the runner runs out of curve, which is an unpleasant surprise on a deck with a step behind it.

Each runner carries an anti tipping stopper that caps the backward travel, with anti slip pads underneath so the chair does not creep forward either. The rock stays gentle at both ends of the swing.

The three pieces

Two rockers facing in with the table between them. The weave runs all the way up the back and around both arms, and the curved armrests carry the same rattan as the sides.

What controls the rock

Three close ups from the maker: the square section metal frame, the anti slip foot pads, and the anti tipping stoppers at the end of each runner. Between them they set how far the chair travels.

The seat cushion

High density sponge under a removable washable cover. On a rocking chair the cushion does more work than on a fixed seat, because you are leaning into it rather than sitting square on it.

On a porch

Set up under a roof with the railing behind. The backs are reclined rather than upright, which is the point of a rocker, and the table stands at 17.5 in so a glass is within reach from either chair.

Fitted to each runner to cap the backward travel, which is the part most rockers leave to chance.

Published for each rocker over a sturdy metal frame, with the table rated to 180 lb in total.

A 17.5 in square top over a woven lower shelf measuring 14 in by 15 in.

The back leans rather than standing upright, with curved armrests that follow the line of a forearm.

The covers are removable and washable over high density sponge padding.

Under the runners, so the chairs stay where they are put on a smooth porch board or sealed concrete.

A capped rocking arc matters most where there is an edge, a railing or a drop a foot or two behind the chair.

A reclined back, curved arms and a 14.5 in seat are made for an hour with a coffee rather than a quick meal.

Light grey weave with charcoal cushions suits stone, pale pavers and grey painted boards.

What we stand behind

• Chair and table measurements and both load figures are read from the product's own dimension drawing.
• The store lists this under patio dining sets. A 14.5 in seat and a 17.5 in table make it a rocking conversation set.
• The maker calls the rattan waterproof. That is their wording, quoted rather than asserted here.
• No glass thickness, UV rating, fabric weight or foam density is published, so none is claimed.
• Ships from our United States warehouse, free shipping over $150, and 14 day returns unused in the original packaging.

What stops the chair tipping backwards?

An anti tipping stopper on each runner, which the manufacturer shows in their own close up. It caps how far the chair can travel back. Anti slip foot pads on the same runners stop it creeping forward on a smooth surface.

Is this a dining set?

No, despite where it sits in the store. The seats are 14.5 in from the ground and the table is 17.5 in tall, which is lounge geometry. A dining pairing puts the seat near 18 in under a tabletop near 29 in.

Is the rattan really waterproof?

Waterproof is the manufacturer's word for the weave, alongside breathable and sunproof. No rating backs any of them, and the cushions certainly are not waterproof, so treat the claim as their description and bring the cushions in.

How should the glass table be treated in winter?

Cover it or bring it indoors. Glass specialists point to repeated freeze and thaw cycles as a cause of outdoor glass tables weakening or working loose from their frames, with hail and wind as the other risks.
