Need help deciding on a chair
 
My daughter recently took back her desk chair that I was using. I did tell her it didn't fit her anymore but she still took it!! Anyway, I liked the one I was using but now that I have a chance to upgrade I think I will. I know I don't want one with "arms" need it to adjust up and down of course but what other features could there be on a chair? I have been looking and saw a "saddle" chair, has anyone used one? Thanks for any and all suggestions.

I just recently liberated my husband's shooting stool from as he doesn't shoot anymore. It's actually a drummers stool that he got at the music store. It's kind of like a saddle chair, but no arms or back. A back is available, but I don't want or need one. It's also adjustable. I love it.

I rarely lean back enough to use the back. I just wish mine went just a bit higher. It is adjustable, but I'm such a shorty (5 ft) that getting a little higher would be nice. That and a comfortable seat. Happy shopping!!

I bought a nice leather swivel desk chair and did not attach the arms. Love it! It's was from Office Depot and I paid $59 on sale.

I have on that has a seat tilt and back tilt. I sure is nice to sit high and tilted forward for long hours quilting.

I'm thinking of getting another chair too. Mine is to big and bulky and doesn't move we'll on the chair mat. And the nest one will be without arms. :). Good luck with your search!

Your primary concern is which one fits you best. Try out several different ones and when you find the one that fits grab it quick!

Thanks for the input.. I am going to go shopping this weekend and come home with something I hope.

Go to the office supply store and they have one of everything out to butt-test. And the prices are posted on all of them. When you are in the store, if you find one that you really like but not sure about the price, check on-line. Most of them actually have computers available for you to compare prices. But most will honor the price that is on the website, even if it doesn't start until next week. Ask me how I know ;):thumbup:> Good luck.
