I Tested the Rocking Chair Used at 5-Star Resorts, and It Gave Me the Best Vacation Nap at Home

For starters, this rocker has an ergonomically curved seat and back, which I desperately need because my lower back pain has been an issue since a sports injury I suffered in high school.

It also features leg braces and a tongue-and-groove construction, which the brand says provides maximum stability and longevity. The premium eucalyptus hardwood it’s crafted from is also weather-resistant, meaning you won’t have to worry about rain, snow or heavy winds causing major damage. And should anything happen to it, the chair is covered by a two-year warranty for extra protection.

As for my personal experience, I found the process of receiving and putting together my chair very easy. The chair arrives partially assembled with packaged instructions on how to build the rest, and the only tool I needed was a screwdriver to get the job done. All in all, it took me about an hour to build, but if you are a pro, you can easily knock it out in 20 minutes.

Once I got my chair put together, I was immediately able to take advantage of its comfort and luxe features, such as the matching side table ($198 when purchased together) for food and drinks, which I highly recommend adding on if you really want to recreate a vacation vibe.

Sitting in the chair for the first time was also a great experience, as I was knocked out within minutes. I'm not much of a napper, but I can confidently say that the nap I took was the best sleep I've gotten in months.

Now that I finally have a rocking chair, I realize just how much I’ve been missing out on not having one all these years. If you’ve been on the fence, this is your sign to make the jump. Trust me, you won’t regret it.
