Susanne,
My husband and I had the exact same question. It was a toss up between PB's Manhattan or Ballard's Paris. We went with Ballard's Paris because it was 1000 cheaper. We actually recieved it today. It is not as comfortable as PB Manhattan. The Manhattan chair has a lower profile and seat. The Paris has a higher profile and and sits too high. It is also stiff and just too upright. We are going to replace the seat cushion with down filling and hope that will lower the seat and make it more cozy. Sounds crazy, but we are also going to shave an inch or two off the back legs to make it sit more like PB Manhattan. If you have sat in the Manhattan you probably can understand what we are trying to accomplish. Also, if you give Ballard your e-mail address on their webpage they will give you 10% off your first purchase. Other than the aboved mentioned, we are pleased with the purchase and are glad we saved 1000 bucks by going with the Paris. Hope this helps...
Mary-Anne
