Sorry..forgot to add, yes, I think they are comfy!

Thanks junglegal. I am in Canada and do have a source for them , just can't sit my own fanny in one locally to try them out.

I sat in one when we were dining room chair shopping, and I found them to be very comfortable. We ended up going with something upholstered, but I really liked the Eames chairs.

The molded plastic ones are more "resilient" and slightly flexible. The vintage fiberglass ones are a bit rigid. Also the armless ones have a bit more give than the armed version because of the shape.

MuskokaSCP, can you get to an EQ3 store?

We have two vintage fibreglass ones with arms. No one ever sits in them: they're a bit rigid and too "upright" - no give as pal said, also beware as the arms don't fit under my dining table which has a 3" apron all around, so it's a good idea to look at clearances,

I think I would prefer armless.

I definitely prefer the Eiffel base as pictured: mine have the plain aluminum H legs (vintage) and there's not a lot of wow factor to the legs.
