We have three balans chairs at home - one conventional model that I use with
the computer and two "tripos" recliners. All have proven to be extremely
satisfactory. The standard balans is comfortable enough that I have had
10 hr sessions without noticable back strain (I can take about half an hour
in a conventional chair before I have to get up and walk around). The tripos
models are used in our living room as primary chairs and we have no complaints.

A word of caution -- the Balans brand is of much higher quality than many
of the copies floating around. The chairs are built up of laminated wood and
the amount of "give" seems to be important.
