I recently went with a Westy 37" as my computer/media display. I wall mounted it above my desk. I did it a little too high and I don't want to go through that again.

I knew I would need a taller chair anyway. The only things I can seem to find are drafting chairs. Which seem to be fine. Just looking for some other ergonomic suggestions.

Criteria:
1. Less than $150, preferably under $100
2. Seat height of 28". Max can be anything, but my desk is 30" high so it has to be adjustable below that.
3. Comfortable
4. Ergonomic, be wacky with it. It can have some funky new way of sitting as long as it meets the above criteria.
5. Arms are not important and actually not preferred here. As they wouldn't let me get as close to my desk at that height.

Thanks for your help everybody. I want to get back to designing but I can't do it when I have to gaze up about 10".

I can't. It is screwed into my wall. Besides like I said I needed a taller chair anyway as I would be able to move the TV down by at most 2-3". I knew that in the beginning but I figured I could deal with that for awhile.

I like it where it is. I just need a taller chair. Just want some other recommendations as the only thing I have found that comes close is a drafting chair.

that's likely your only choice.


this is why screwdrivers work both ways...

That is fine if a drafting chair is my only choice. I don't mind that at all. I just wanted to see if there were other options.

It was almost impossible to get that thing into my wall. I drilled pilot holes but my drill still couldn't handle getting the screws in. So I had to do it by hand. I do not want to go through that again. Like I said, I needed a taller chair regardless and I planned for it. I am not attempting to be lazy and just by something to fix the problem. I had already planned on it.

This isn't about moving the TV. It is about getting a taller chair which I had planned to do in the first place. Why are you guys so difficult sometimes?
