Default Chair - what do you have?

I am looking to purchase a new chair for my quilting room. Right now I just have a folding chair.

I was just wondering what everyone else has for when they spend hours sewing? Does anyone use a backless stool with saddle seat, if so how do you like it?

I use an adjustable office chair without arms. Sometimes I put a pillow in the seat to get up even higher than it adjusts to. It's advisable to get up and move around frequently, no sewing for hours or you will hurt yourself.

DH bought me a Koala SewComfort chair at a LQS when she had an unbelievable sale-even cheaper after taxes than any online site. Actually, I placed the order and he drove over to pick it up and pay for it. It was easy to assemble and rolls like a dream over the clear carpet mat.

I went to one of the office box stores (can't remember which) and test-sat all their chairs in my price range. Picked a comfy one that has three different adjustments: Height, back, and tilt. I spent a little over $100 for it (on sale).

I have a Sew Comfort chair as well. Well, actually, 3 of them. one for each computer and one that raises up to stool height that I use at the machine and cutting table.

I got a creeper chair that looks like a motorcycle seat for my longarm. Adjustable, rolls but what I would love to have is a drafting stool. Then I could get really high and see well.
