Sally - I wasn't implying that the photos above were trailer parks, nor was I saying anything negative about trailer parks. I love the idea of trailer parks - small, individual housing on a community lot and the possibility of moving your unit elsewhere in the country. The author of this post commends "walkability, knowing your neighbors, a sense of community and open space preservation." These things could exist in trailer parks and it's a nice idea to embrace. It's unfortunate that trailer parks have a (mostly) negative reputation.

I've been anxiously waiting for trailer parks to get their due in the design world.

I will put up with almost anything in a shared bathroom as long as the toilet paper is hanging over the roll and not under.

This post was worth it for the humorous comments alone!

I do not own this Evinco Womb chair knock-off but I have seen one in person. There are two main differences between this knock-off and the Knoll chair.

The first difference is the dimensions. The official Womb chair is 35.5"x40"x34" and the Evinco knock-off is 40"x33"x40". If you have seen/sat-in a Knoll Womb chair and like the look and feel/comfort of its dimensions the Evinco might seem "off" to you. Do you have an opportunity to see and sit in the knock-off in person? That might help with your decision.

The second difference is in construction quality. I noticed the biggest quality difference in the stitching - the stitching on the Womb chair being perfect with tight seams while the seams on the knock-off were somewhat sloppy looking. There was an apartment featured on this site recently and the person had a knock-off (possibly this Evinco knock-off) and I recognized immediately that it wasn't a Womb chair. It is especially noticeable when viewing the chair from the back.

Overall, I don't think there is anything wrong with the knock-off, I just wanted to point out the two differences I noticed. $3000 for the Womb chair (not including ottoman) is a lot of money. If you want something a lot cheaper that looks close enough this knock-off definitely does that.
