Our old neighbors had one of those chairs. They are unique, but VERY comfortable. It'* easy to get used to!

I've broken:

Your basic $19.99 Desk chair at walmart.

A $50 leather chair from.... Walmart

a wicker chair I found on the side of a street. Lasted longer than those 2 chairs put together.

Dining room chair

And a few more.

Being heavy AND jumpy is bad for chairs. Now I just use my bed as a chair. Haven't broken it yet.

Here mine.....

My Computer Chair

Not the green as shown but more of a burgundy color

I've got one of those too, havn't used it for anything but a shelf in years. LOL
I figure I'll use it sooner or later or I would've thrown it out.
