I'm planning to get an eames rocker for our nursery. I'm stuck between getting the eames molded plastic rocker or the modernica fiberglass rocker. I like that the modernica is made out of the original material. Any thoughts?
I went with fiberglass... I tried the molded plastic at DWR and decided fiberglass was the way to go. I like it much better. Fiberglass is the original material and modernica uses the original molds. It is much sturdier (and less expensive).
Sigh, I have always wanted one of these. They just don't sell them in Marrakech:-(

I have an original I found on a front porch in Southern Indiana 15 years ago. Fiberglass is the way to go.
