What kind/type of chair do you use?

Have found that more and more, I get up from the sewing machine with a sore back. Despite support and making myself sit up straight. What kind of chair do you use to relieve or minimize that sore back syndrome?

Adjustable office chair, but my posture in the chair makes my back hurt, not the chair. I lean forward and do not let the chair support my back. Best thing I have found for my back is putting a Lidoderm (lidocaine) 8 hr patch on my spine before I start sewing.

In our classroom we have mostly Bernina chairs which we sell ...we also sell Koala chairs......Personally I like the Koala chair which can be ordered in colors and many wood shades......all for the same price......but many customers who have tried both prefer the Bernina chair I believe the Bernina chair is made by Horn....which we also sell....but we don,t have any of those in our shop......good luck in your search!

I have an office chair but it's a drafting chair that I use at it's lowest - that keeps me high enough that I'm not hitching my shoulders up. I also use a Gypsy Sit-Upon cushion - I have lower back issues (sciatica sp?) - the cushion helps as it prevents the compression when you lean to one side or another.
