I'm looking for a kind of chair that rocks back all the way to the top. I saw one of these once at a friend's house about 10 years ago (I believe it was NFL-branded and fairly cheap, but I've checked nflshop.com and they don't appear to sell them anymore) and haven't seen one since. The back/bottom of the chair is one continuous curve, so you can go from sitting straight up to lying basically flat on your back in one smooth motion. The sitting surface, when upright, was about a foot off the ground (much lower than a desk chair). The chair was small (probably 18-20" wide, maybe 2' deep, and 3-4' tall). The one I tried was fairly soft (covered all over in vinyl). I imagine this would be in the $50 range. The chair does not have to be NFL-branded (totally nonbranded would be preferable, actually). Any pointers to one or more places to find one of these (online preferred, but a physical store in the Boston area would be fine too) would be great! |

Does it resemble any of the chairs on any of the following pages (so that we have an idea of the design to which you refer?) http://www.designboom.com/eng/education/rocking/contemporary.html http://www.designboom.com/eng/education/rocking/modern2.html http://www.designboom.com/eng/education/rocking/modern.html http://www.designboom.com/rocking/winners.html |

I think I know exactly what you're talking about because I sat in one once, too. It was at a local stereo shop in their home theater display room and it was an incredible chair. The closest thing I've found to it is this one... http://www.officedesigns.com/perchairbyin.html The only downside is that it's $1400. It doesn't sound quite as inexpensive as the one you're looking for. |

Wow - that "Perfect Chair Classic II" looks amazing - oh if I could afford that! :-) Thanks, gabe-ga, for making me drool over that one! :-) We'll see what else folks come up with. It's too bad this is so hard - it's a great little chair (and it is little)... Thanks for all the help, folks! |

Hi ebailey, Ok, I know this isn't really what you are looking for, but it is worth a look-see. A very interesting chair, IMHO! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2021338418&tc=photo Best of luck, and I'll keep looking... (still)lookn4info |

We have a winner!!! The Nintendo Sport Rocker is EXACTLY what I'm looking for - and the price is right ($84.95)!!! Thank you teach-ga! If you could repost that as the Answer, you've definitely earned the reward. Additionally, thanks to everyone who responded - I've learned a lot about rocking chairs in the past few days! --ebailey |

I would love to, but I just applied to be a researcher and I'm just waiting at the moment. I didn't see why you should wait though! Happy Rocking! |
