Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I use a swivel, leather office chair and I love it.
When it seems like the world is falling to pieces remember that the pieces are falling into place. We are nearing closer to the End Times.
I hated the wheels Seemed like I was always snarling stuff in them -so I went back to my 1930's library chair. Its better on my back, too. Althou I did make me a nice quilted cushion for my seat. Now I can sew for hours between stretching the kinks out.
I went to a local store that sells sewing machines, tables and chairs. I purchased a special sewing chair. I am so happy I did. It has 6 different adjustments. I am always comfortable whether piecing or quilting! Luann in CT

I may try an office chair without arms. I have tried 2 with arms and didn't like them. Now I use a stool and put my foot pedal on a 1x6" piece of board. My back and right leg does hurt if I sew a couple hours. I really don't think this set up is helping me out. I have to sit in the doorway and a smaller chair may help.

I have two office chairs. One with arms at my computer desk, one without arms at my sewing machine.
I use a swivel office style chair oln rollers that I found at Target for $17.00 a couple of years ago. I wouldn't trade it for anything. Easy on my back and height is adjustable to add to the comfort of sitting for long periods. Good luck

I use an armless secretarial chair. On wheels and swivels. I have one at each machine.
I too have an armless task chair on wheels and swivels. I decided on the armless variety because I used to have one that hand arms on it and I was always mashing my fingers between it and my sewing table.Originally Posted by pollyjvan9

I bought a fancy office chair from Office Master as a early birthday present for myself. I have had 3 different office chairs over the years that were not as adjustable and always seemed to be dumping me forward and out of the seat. This chair adjusts seat up and down and tilts more than the others. The back also adjusts not just up and down, but forward and backward so that I can sit with my back up against the back for support so my back and shoulders don't get tired. Also, I am short and the other chairs were just too deep from the front to the back of the seat to be comfortable.
