    I bought an office chair with wheels and took the arms off. The chair back has very good lumbar support. Very comfortable.

    I sit on a hard, wooden piano bench with no cushion to sew. I had back surgery and oddly, I find this the most comfortable. I have excellent posture at all times since my injury, slouching equals pain :thumbup:

    I use my computer chair. I can roll back and forth to my ironing board which is positioned low enough . Works great.

    not sewing related, but my sil has back problems and her dr told her to sit on a hard surface.

    I have an office chair with arms, castors and a massage cushion with heat. Works pretty well.

    I use an office chair, wheels, but no arms....I have had it for many years, love it, take it to retreats. I have a rug-hooked sheep seat cover that my aunt made that covers the seat, that goes wherever the chair goes too.

    I don't sit. I stand. My machine is on a table with bed risers and blocks under that. The table is very tall and I love it.

    I use a Office Chair with wheels and no arms that you can adjust the height.

    I just use a chair that came with our card tables. I don't usually do a ton of quilting in a long stretch, though.

    The shop where I bought my Bernina recently sent out ads for these. The features are great, wonderful warantee, decent price ($199) - but bright RED??? Ugh. If it were a darker red, maybe.
