That is simple but really smart.

One issue though is the lack of a back on the stool. You can make the case it’s a Good thing but when I really need to concentrate if I’m tensing muscles in my back to keep straight it won’t be the same—or you can slouch which also isn’t perfect.





You should not need to tense muscles in your back to sit straight, or stand from that position.
