How low to the ground does this rocker sit. I am fairly tall and have problems getting up from a low sitting rocker.

Sits fairly high - depends upon how tall you are. I am 5'7" and I found it very comfortable.

it is to low for a power chair. my daughter uses a chair with a lift option and she can not raise the chair

It gets about as low as any regular chair, but the seat is really wide and deep. I'm 6 foot and had some issues with the depth of it. A shorter person might have even more issues with this chair.

Not sure of the exact height, but I'm short too and never had a problem.. Except now that she's older I had to lower it because she climbs out and it's hard to lay her down.

Hi John, I've had this chair for about a year. Its a great office chair. I'm a taller guy and the high-back is great for me. However, I don't think this would fit the needs of a rocker. Its not built like a traditional rocker and is designed to be more of an office chair with a "recline" option.

You can adjust the height quite a bit. I took some pictures of someone seated only about a foot off the ground and I was able to adjust this to be pretty low. You do need to extend the bottom 3 legs so it's stable but the height can vary quite a bit. I hope that info helps!

I love my rocking chair It has a padded back very comfie and not at all low to theground. I would guess it would be 20 inches . Mrs. E

the lowest part of the seat is 15 inches above ground. The elastic ties holding the canvas seat to the frame would make it even lower when you sat down. this may make it too difficult for you to get up out of the chair.

Well, I suppose that depends also on your porch rail height. As for the chair, it's an Adirondack, so you sit in it sloping backwards, so you're not more than a foot off the ground I guess.

I am 5'3 and have the seat on the lowest possible level. My feet barely touch the floor. It's not designed for short people. I don't think you should have a problem.

Hi, Yes it does sit low to the ground (lower than an average sofa.). I find it very comfortable and was very easy to out together.

The slats themselves are about 17 inches, but there is extra space between the slats and the log framing of the chair. I am 6 feet tall, about 190 pounds, with a a 38 inch waist and I melt right into this great rocker! A standard rocking chair cushion would work, but I took a thicker cushion off of a wider redwood chair I had and it fit perfectly. I actually had purchased an expensive outdoor cushion for it, but gave it to my dashsund to sleep on! The chair is actually just as comfortable without any cushions on it at all. Hope this helps.

Hi there,Thanks for your input. We ended up buying this rocker for our baby before he was born (he's now 9 months, so it's all packed away now). We loved it! We had no problems with it tipping. It's funny to see that I was so worried about it in my third tri-mester state :-)

Wow, good question. I have had mine for 1 year and I have no idea if I have a good or bad one. It seems very well made and has held up well. My one complaint is that the back of the chair is in a very upright position. When my little guy first started using it, he sat towards the front so his feet would stay on the ground. Now that he is bigger, he sits back but looks uncomfortable, like the back is too straight. So he basically turns it over and leans on it. I got him another chair, the rocker from walmart, much cheaper, and he seems to use that one more because it looks (and I guess) feels more comfortable. Wow, good question.

Hello Ann, The seat will lower to approx. 1 1/2 Feet measuring from the top of the seat to the ground. I am Very Happy with this scooter. I think you will be also. Thanks: Allen Tulkoff

My chair is not a rocker and did not claim to be. It is a recliner and the overstuffed pillows make it very comfortable. It has a serious shortcoming: It is very hard to lock the seat back down after you have released it for reclining. And until you lock it you cannot get out of the chair. I have to use my cane to push the foot rest back far enough to lock it. As it is spring loaded unless you lock it it will stay down; this prevents you from getting out of the chair. Also the chair is about 2 inches too low for the chair to support my legs without my having to bend them and I am only 5'8". But the issue with closing the chair can be a real problem.
