The REAL Balans chairs run about $175, and I admit that they are better than
the lower priced versions.  However, has anyone had any experience with the
lower-priced versions for those of us who are not willing to  shell out that 
kind of money.  In particular, has anyone had any experience with a particular
kind called the "Back Chair."  It is flat on the bottom, and seems to made of
some veneer.  A few of the office supply outlets around here advertise it at
$69 on sale.  Price Club has it for $23.  Is it better than a normal chair for
work at my desk or terminal? Is it much worse than a Real Balans chair?
(Price Club is a chain of warehouse discount stores out here in CA).
