Re: Posture Aids

Yes that's the one - only 2 reviews on it though, it looks hard rather than a softer feel .....
Other reviews on other sites - not so good.
Maybe I'll just have to chance it

Re: Posture Aids

Tried the laptop with legs Julie - as I cant sit too long, it was a hindrance and not very stable

Blimey.....all sorts around now, wonder if they're any good? Fortunately I don't have a need but you never know.....

Re: Posture Aids

I use a posture chair, or kneeling cbair. I find it really comfy although my husband hates it. Mine was secondhand, cost me £10. It might be worth you putting an ad in your supermarket, if you can get one cheaply it won't matter so much if it's not for you.

Thanks Julie - is it one of those tables that slide in, thought about that - maybe ..........
No, it wont work either, would have to move things to get the table in, heavy coffee table in the way, I'd rather stay where I am and try to get 'some' comfort if I can ......

Patsy darlin' - go have a look at my profile page of me sitting in my riser/recliner chair - where I am at this moment typing this to you. Laptop is (literally) on my lap (but because I'm reclined - its not too heavy). What you seem to need is the chair like mine - a riser/recliner.

Re: Posture Aids

Yep thanks Joe - I tried a recliner a few years back, then I developed vertigo and had to sell it.
Cant be on my back, all to do with fluid in the ears ......affecting balance

No Patsy darlin' - don't have be reclined fully back, but sitting in a semi-reclined position I find very comfortable.
