Here are tips on how to buy the best patio chair:

• Look at the other décor you have in your patio so that you can match the color and design of your chair so that you have a harmonious design scheme. Charming white colored wicker rocking chairs are the best for achieving an elegant look while dark-colored ones are suitable for a rustic feel.
• Decide on what kind of material you want for your rocking chair that's made from wicker, whether natural or synthetic. Natural wicker furniture is made from rattan, a plant that grows abundantly in the Southeast Asian region, while synthetic material is made from synthetic fibers like polyethylene that is more suited for outdoor settings because they resist the elements better than the natural wicker furniture.
• Make sure that the size of the wicker rocking chair is not too big that your arms does not rest comfortably on the armrests, and not too small that you do not fit well into the chair. See if your elbow can rest comfortably and while you are doing that, try to tip it back and forth to see if the chair's rocking motion is smooth and if it is tipped just right and does not give the feeling that you are falling backwards when your are in a reclining position.
• Check for sagging weave work in the seating and backrest and make sure that your back nestles comfortably on the backrest. Also, do not forget to check for annoying poking weave work along the edges.
• You can either opt to buy upholstered rocking chairs or those without upholstery which is more airy, and just jazz it up with seat cushions for a more comfortable use.
