Guys I need a lil help here. Ive never bought a new chair, mine always came from the goodwill or dump, lol.
I'm at a point in my life where I need something that will offer me the best support and lots of cushion. I don't want a huuuuge chair, my room is small, lol.
Ive got fibro and since I started working from home on my computer I really need something that will help with the stiffness associated with fibro/sitting on your fat butt for long hours, LOL.

Got any ideas on a good chair? One I can adjust the height on would be nice. I can't spend $1000.00 though...LOL

I have used an ergonomic kneeling chair for over 20 years and
have never had a back problem despite long hours at my computer.
Mine has a hydraulic feature so you can raise or lower it as needed.
New models also allow the seat angle to be adjusted.

http://www.bizchair.com/kneelingchairs1.html
has some examples but they are readily available at
many furniture stores. You can just Google "kneeling
chairs" for many other examples.

They also help prevent varicose veins from too much
pressure on the backs of the thighs when sitting in a
regular chair.

How do you use that? LOL The bits at the bottom are confusing me... do you put your knees on it? Free shipping... now THAT's a deal LOL. I'm saving this website as a maybe for when I get a few paychecks under my belt. Tankies!!

Easy as pie. With your knees and backside as shown,
your back is automatically positioned and self-supported.

It has for me for a long time. When in corporate life I had a normal chair
and was always uncomfortable. I'm small and thin, and sitting on my
backside and the backs of my thighs for hours on end was not cool.

The chair I have looks more like this one:

The handle by the seat indicates it is height adjustable. Convenient
since I use it at my work table as well as at my desk. I wouldn't
buy one that wasn't height adjustable.

If you can find a store in your area that carries them, it's worth a
trip to try them out.
