Would a stool like this be feasible for long-term sitting? http://www.humanscale.com/products/product_detail.cfm?group=FreedomSaddleSeat I seem to always be at war with the arms and back of any chair I use long-term, and I'm thinking that maybe I could eliminate those entirely, and the slightly-leaning-forward posture would make a chair back unnecessary. Or I could be totally wrong.

Echo_ posted:Soma chairs are pretty popular in Silicon Valley. http://somaergo.com/ The chairs are modular, so you if you want a different back or armrests, you can just buy that part. Some of those look kinda like Sigmund Freud's chair.

LeftistMuslimObama posted:I really like the Microsoft Natural line of keyboards. It has a really tall riser on the front and a curved/split keyboard so your wrists are perfectly straight the whole time you use it. I'm still trying to convince work to hook me up with an ergonomic mouse, though. This gel wristpad mousepad is just not doing it. I am also a fan of the Microsoft Natural (specifically the 4000). I have had good results easing tendinitis with a gel wrist-rest for the mouse. (Your mileage may vary, et cetera.)

Dyscrasia posted:Any suggestions on a lumbar support? Theres no way my company will spring for a badass chair, but I do have an injured back and figured I would pick one up. This may be a terribly silly idea, but what if you wore one of those weightlifting belts? Those are supposed to support your lower back, right? I wonder if it would help at all while sitting.

Martytoof posted:I have terrible posture. Like I caught myself almost lying down in my big comfortable chair typing this. I will occasionally use a stool/backless chair for a while, but it's not something that's comfortable for me all day. If I could find a cheap one, I would love to give a Swopper a try. I've also had luck with chairs that I can adjust so that the seat tilts forward a bit. It makes me sit more upright and slouch less.

Rotten Red Rod posted:Edit: On an unrelated note, I was at a furniture trade show in Chicago last month, and I saw the most hideous office chair in existence. I took a photo, but unfortunately it looks like I accidentally deleted it. It was this same chair, but with white leather: Good labeling on the photo: that is a boss chair.
