I use an office chair with rollers & no arms. I had one with arms once but they just got in my way. My chair has height adjustment. I like it a lot. I never thought about a stool....I never lean back while sewing.

I use very nice rolling office chair that my son found in the junk pile at work. The mesh was torn in the back, so I repaired it and then made a cover to slip over the back which matched the seat fabric. I removed the arms for comfort. I love it as it is adjustable.

I'd probably forget I was on the stool and go tail over teakettle. Then I WOULD be sitting on Daisy Dog.
