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.

I hope that it is feasible because I hate the backs and arms on all the chairs in the office. I can never seem to find anyone that's used a stool or a saddle-like chair for long sits.

Does anyone know if something like this HumanScale saddle is any good for long sits? They're reasonably priced at under $400.

I'm constantly at war with the arms and backs of chairs. I'm using a stability ball right now, but it's beginning to bother the under-sides of my thighs. I wish I could afford an Embody.

Does anyone know a HumanScale retailer in Canada? I'm really interested in a few of their chairs and a Float desk, but I'm having a really hard time finding any pricing.

Gabriel Ross sells humanscale (almost bought my Herman Miller through them)

Can't speak for their prices though so YMMV.

Pretty reasonable, and free shipping! Thanks a lot!
