Holey moley is all I can say. That looks like every other secretary's chair I have every seen. I have back issues also and cannot see where that would give me the lumbar support and upper spine and neck support I need now. After you go try it, could you report back to us on how it is?
Had to get a "special" chair at work which was $150.00. Love my work chair. It is a Staples standard office executive chair.
