{"product_id":"merlen-dotted-rocking-horse-cream","title":"Merlen Dotted Rocking Horse - Cream","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a rocking horse with real character: a cream fabric pony with a dotted coat, a long shaggy yarn mane and tail, sleepy closed eyes and a shaped saddle, standing on a pair of curved wooden rockers. It is made from polyester and poplar wood, and you can see where each goes: the fabric body sits on a poplar base with the grain left showing. At 70cm long, 34cm wide and 56cm tall it is a proper floor-standing size rather than a shelf ornament, yet narrow enough to sit between a bed and a bookcase.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt belongs in a playroom, a child's bedroom or a clear spot in the living room, and it earns its floor space twice over: ridden when there is rocking to be done, then left standing as a cheerful ornament the rest of the time. A wooden handle runs through the head for little hands to grip, and flat wooden footrests sit on the rockers either side. The maker gives a maximum load of 60KG. It makes a lovely gift for a birthday or to stand under the tree at Christmas, and its calm, simple look sits as comfortably among grown-up furniture as it does among toys.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe rockers are joined by wooden crossbars beneath the hooves, which are finished in a contrast fabric, and the mane and tail are loose lengths of chunky yarn that invite a stroke. The horse weighs 3KG, light enough for an adult to lift from room to room or tuck aside when the floor is needed. The maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download. For styling, give it a flat-woven or low-pile rug to rock on and a little space around the rockers, and let a basket of toys or a stack of picture books keep it company.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e70cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e56cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolyester, Poplar wood\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCream\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaximum load\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRecommended age\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFrom 12 months\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch5\u003eDownloads\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/bloomingville-82062144-assembly-instructions.pdf?v=1791021337\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eAssembly instructions (PDF)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the rocking horse made of?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is made from polyester and poplar wood: the fabric horse sits on a poplar base of curved rockers, crossbars and footrests, with a wooden handle through the head.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow big is it and how heavy?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is 70cm long, 34cm wide and 56cm tall, and it weighs 3KG, so an adult can easily carry it from one room to another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat age is it for?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe maker recommends it from 12 months, and it stands at a comfortable floor height for a small rider to climb on.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow much weight can it take?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe maker gives a maximum load of 60KG, which is the figure to go by when deciding who will ride it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it need putting together?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt goes together at home, and the maker's assembly instructions come as a PDF download, so you can read through the steps before you start.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs there something to hold?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes.
