where to buy kneeling chair?

I wanted to buy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kneeling_chair

Kniestuhl in german... I found one in Conforama, but it is terrible, uncomfortable, but costs only 49 chf.

any idea where else i could find such thing?

http://www.sitz.ch/de/KONTAKT or here
http://www.rueckencenter.ch/shop/Stuehle/Kniestuehle/ they have it for 600 chf cheapest so... well.. i mean, it costs 29 eur in germany on ebay... but maybe there is some shop other than conforama that sells it for normal price?

i'm aiming at something around 100chf, preferably below...

Almost the same as the one in conforama is ok, i saw such back home, it's just that the one from conforama is really uncomfortable

P.S. i found one on ricardo.ch but it's exactly the same one as in conforama, some reseller probably

I've seen those a few times in Brockenhaus stores in Zurich.

They were fairly popular about 25 years ago, but they almost entirely disappeared from the market. I'm afraid there wasn't much demand. I have two of them, made in Switzerland around 1986, but rarely saw them in stores since then.

There's a Stokke store on Hardstrasse near Albisriederplatz which has all manner of these contraptions, but expect to pay Swiss prices.

Re: where to buy kneeling chair?

I would check out your local brocki - we got great, gently used desk chairs from them - you might find the odd kneeling chair there too.
