I have the rocker. I liked it for great back support, but my head was about 2 inches too high for proper support. One of the rails never quite clicked properly, coming undone after a few hours. Eventually, maybe because of this incomplete clicking, both rails started to buckle a bit. I'm under 200, so I expected it to hold up better than it did. Still, I think that this was probably an uncommon experience.
If you're not liking the feel of the rocker, consider a papasan. I got one as a gift ($100 at Pier 1 during Christmas sale). I'm loving it.
