That's not furniture. It can't be... can it? A porn movie set prop maybe. Furniture? No way.

isn't the point of a rocking chair so you can lean back comfortably while you rock back and forth? I don't see how you could do that with this.

@caldrax...i agree...how the hell are you supposed to sit in this thing? i see a saddle, which implies along the Y axis, which would work for front to back rocking...although i guess you could sit along the Z axis also, and rock side-to-side, which is unconventiontional, but not wholly without merit...the real problem is, unless this monstrosity is like six feet tall, it's way too short to sit on comfortably.

Am I the only one who sees that crutch/stand thing and instantly thinks Salvador Dali?

I'd like a 1:10 scale model, please. My wife has a birthday coming up.
