$2K-Papasan chair is the only one I've never heard of. Use Spock's Rule and go with it.
Otherwise, an easy stack for me.

OK, time to ATA. I can eliminate two of them (A and D) but the 50/50 would probably leave the two I don't know.BBTranscriptTeam wrote:$4000- Because of its shape, which of these comfy chairs is sometimes referred to as a "dish chair"?
