One thing that has to be considered is if there are any personal physical
considerations to take into account which make one way of sitting
uncomfortable/comfortable.
As Eve Morton has seen on many occasions, if I sit on an upright chair for
too long I have difficulty getting up and walking. At home I sit in a higher
than normal armchair made slightly higher with bed pillows under the seat
cushion. Another pillow rests against the chair under my calves and knees
and cushions at my back for support.
The kneeling chair would be totally useless for me because I have had a
whole knee replacement, and when you've had that, kneeling is not advised
and, in any case, it's like kneeling on a walnut. Very uncomfortable.
The height, angle and size of the pillow is something else to consider. I
can't reach across a flat pillow which is more than 20 inches diameter and I
like a flat pillow sloping slightly into my midriff. Anything really flat or
too large really makes my back ache.
You just have to find out what works for you.
