If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

I think I will continue to like my rocking chair with nice pillows for back and bottom.
That price tag too much for me, and I live in Canada. That price did not include any taxes.

maybe a joke to you, but i want to thank you for posting this. my swopper chair literally changed my life, making work nearly impossible to making me able to sit at my job. sitting at work was making me so sick, now my chair actually strengthens my back muscles. i paid $600 for my chair, the swopper is now up to $700, but truly worth every penny.
if this one is just as good, its really not too expensive, if it makes one able to function when one couldn't before.
and thus far, the only thing that has worked at all is my swopper. and now maybe this one is equal.
just glad i could afford it (for home) and at work i used my overhead from my grant to buy it (probably should have made the university buy it now that i know they must accommodate us if they can).
anyway, thanks for the info. think i'll be taking this info and info on the swopper to our ergonomics lab. all they have for people (with back issues) to try are EVIL "ergonomic" chairs that are anything BUT! i'm surprised with them doing this for a living that they are so outdated in what is trying ergonomically correct. definitely not those oversized executive chairs. comfy maybe to someone without a back problem or someone large enough to fit in them. but to someone like me, 5 seconds of sitting and i can tell how evil they are!

i agree i can't believe how much these things cost. but the way i figured it, if i can't work because i can't sit at my job, that's a lot more money then buying a chair.
though i do see the irony in spending all this money to stay healthy enough to be able to work to be able to afford the money to stay healthy enough.........but too, i really like my career, so not really doing it just to make the money......but that is why i spend so much on my health, so i can work, can have a career. if i was home, i wouldn't need to do quite as much as i do healthwise.......i certainly wouldn't need to worry so much about sitting........

If I were still working, I think that is a chair I would consider. Since I am not, I love my small Lazy Boy rocker/recliner that just fits my short body. I am on my 3rd one just alike except for color. I have two of them now. One in our little hang-out room and a new one in our main living room. A good fitting comfortable chair is so very important. When you find one that works, stay with it. I hate sitting with my feet dangling and my back not supported. Thanks for sharing Molly. Possi
