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).
