Trioli Chair

2007.02.28.tricoli.jpg

One chair, endless possibilities.The Trioli chair by Eero Aarnio is a low chair, a high chair, and rocker, all in one. We love the idea of our furniture doing a little multitasking!
 
 

Rocking horses for kids are fun, but they usually have a big footprint and aren't practical in small spaces. It is great to see that issue addressed in such a clever way, and in a product designed for both indoor and outdoor use. Trioli chairs are regularly $224, but Babygeared has them on sale right now for $201.60.

Looks like it comes in white too which is nice for those who aren't big fans of primary colours. Although, white's not so good for outside- dirty!

"endless possibilities" is a overstatement. how about "3 possibilities"

david,
With the creative minds of toddlers and preschoolers.... the possibilities ARE endless!
chair...horse...camel...elephant...boat...cave...igloo....tent... hollow log......?!!!!

I totally want one, though currently $200+ is out of our budget. :o(

Melissa,

using your criteria anything can have "endless possibilities" paper-clips, airplanes, envelopes, toilet paper comes to mind, but-in-the-end ( pun intended ) it's design is intended for one use.

this is a two position chair/rocking-horse.
the fact that the name has the word "horse" is not literal as you point out. nevertheless it has one purpose.

that said I revise my original statement: two possibilities.;P

Babygeared.com has serious customer service issues. Currently, babygeared.com has an unsatisfactory record with the Atlanta BBB. Consumers probably want to consider this prior to shopping with Babygeared.com. They will take your order, and your money, but you will never receive your merchandise. :-)

We are researching these issues with the BBB, as the information reported in these claims is inaccurate.

We were very disheartened to see that just anyone can slander a person or business on the internet leaving no recourse and that such activity can tarnish what has been a good reputation for 7 years with thousands of satisfied customers.
