I have bought 2 at Cracker Barrell - one for my home in WV and another one for my beach bungalow in Myrtle Beach.
The one that sits on my screened porch in WV is just fine. However, the one that sits on my porch at my beach bungalow had one of the rocker legs rot and break in half. It does get more exposure to weather on the beach deck, but I didn't expect it to last only 2 years.
I'm looking for another brand myself that is more sturdy for outside so I'll keep this post in mind.
I've had my Cracker Barrell chairs on my front upstairs porch for two years. It faces south and the only thing we probably don't get from a 'beach bungalow' is the salt spray. So far so good.
I believe the rockers and matching table we purchased at Infinger were Hinkle........EXTREMELY solid, well-built, beautifully crafted pieces of furniture.....top quality stuff.
Awesome! I am really trying to buy Made in USA like Hinkle as much as I can.

Also, like the experience MomziIIa had, we have friends who purchased a rocker at Cracker Barrel, and it didn't last very long. Don't know if those are USA-made, though......
"When Dan Evins first imagined the Cracker Barrel store he thought about all the things that would make him feel comfortable when traveling. Things like simple, honest comfort food and a place to relax. Dan knew of a small family owned rocker business and so he decided to try a few Hinkle rockers on the front porch of the very first Cracker Barrel. Today, on every front porch of Cracker Barrel Old Country Store locations across the country, you’ll find rockers made by The Hinkle Chair Company."
