Is this chair good for sitting cross-legged doing yoga while supporting your back?

Yes, I think it would work great for yoga. We have used it sitting on the ground and it is perfect!

Yes it is. It can help support your back if you have trouble maintaining the posture without support. But I would like to add that when i sit on this chair, I can feel the metal frame to some degree through the cushioning and this takes away from the comfort it provides. It is not painful or anything... but rather a hindrance for sitting on it for a long periods of time.

I would have to say absolutely. The chair is quite large and could easily accommodate someone sitting cross legged. The backrest of the chair also has three angle positions so you can sit more upright if you want or recline further back if you prefer!

yes, I would think so. it will sit fairly flat to the floor or ground and the back adjusts to you

Yes, I would. It is very comfortable. I have a very bad back and hips. Sciatica and Fibro. I can sit in this chair and not hurt as bad.

That's kinda like asking "How long is a piece of string"? I have back issues and find this chair very comfortable, but I'm only using it for meditation practice. I'm only sitting for about a half hour. Your comfort level will vary depending on length of time you sit and any physical limitations you might have. By all means use a chair if you think you need one.

It's really not bad at all. I have lower back problems, so sitting for long periods of time is usually not my favorite thing, but I like this chair comfort-wise more than most.

I am pleased with the firmness of the back, it's adjustable too, and the support it gives me. I have only used it on gym bleacher seats so far and have been grateful by the end of the tournament that I had it. I would not be able to answer for you on how much support you would need but I would recommend this chair!!

The seat of the chair is flush to the floor, so you have to sit cross-legged in it. The back of the chair is tall enough for an average-sized adult. BE CAREFUL about ordering this, because it will cost you at least a hundred bucks to RETURN IT TO CHINA if you don't like it! In fact, now that I'm writing to you--do you want to buy mine? cjmoyer@verizon.net

I believe it is as I went on the site for exact info -the company that makes them..it has been a while since I got it & that was a feature I believe I liked. it is so comfortable with the back too..I use it for make up etc. it is a very strong chair & very durable, sure footed & not like the seat one I bought before that the legs got weak etc. Worth every cent...good luck & hope you find it as good.

I think it has good back support. We use it as a conference table chair and our clients like them. I'm not sure how supportive it would be for an all day type of desk/work chair.

No! It is a terrible chair and will not hold up for anybody. You will be disappointed. As soon as I can get something else, this one goes in a dumpster. It is not worth my time to pack it up and send it back.

This is not the chair for back pain. It is not plushly comfortable especially if you are a big person. It doesn't get much use in my living room except for video gaming. I tend not to watch TV in it and prefer my loveseat recliner.

Absolutely. I ended up using it for less than 2 months and had to sideline it. I do not find the chair comfortable anymore.

Yes. I love this chair. Great back support and though it looks hard and not well padded, it's a delight to sit in. I'd buy it again.

No! Overall I would not suggest buying this chair. It is cheaply made poorly designed, not even comfortable. If I had to purchase another one, I'd spend a little more money.

I take hourly breaks and occasionally swap the chair with a standard desk chair, but otherwise I'm fairly comfortable over 8 hours per day. regular chairs stress my back, this kneeling chair is easier on my back but is harder on my legs. Prolonged typing is hard on your body no matter what; yoga helps. I agree with happymom that it takes a couple weeks to get used to the kneeling chair, but after that it's fine. I wouldn't recommend for heavier people because the cushions do depress to the wood easily.

Yes...It is great ..my chiropractor recommended that I get something to support my legs while at my desk. It has been great for my back.

Yes, it is supportive. But, certainly not the kind of comfort that you will expect from a high back chair.

Maybe? I think it would depend on how long your legs are and how far back or forward you're sitting in the chair. I've sat cross legged in the chair and haven't had any problems
