What actually differs
These solve different problems: the swivel-rocker chair is built for movement and a stated high weight capacity; the stackable chair is built to store compactly between uses and is the only chair in the range with a published seat width. Neither listing states the other's headline feature - the swivel chair doesn't claim to stack, the stackable chair doesn't claim to swivel or rock.
Which one actually helps
Everyday lounging or dining where movement is wanted favors the swivel rocker. Seasonal storage, a smaller space to store chairs in, or simply wanting to know the seat width before ordering cushions favors the stackable chair.
A related choice
The swivel rocker also comes in a padded set of 2, described by its own listing as softer textilene than this set of 4 - see that product's own page if a smaller quantity or padding matters more than the set size here.
