high pad chair seating comfort  

Hello everyone,

For a while now, i have been seriously contemplating purchasing a Jasper Morrison High Pad chair (Cappellini). I know I like the chair aesthetically, and I know I have been liking it for several years now (so it is not likely to be a passing fancy). And i could use a desk chair right now. Hence I have been to the showroom to take a look and try it out. Seating height (45 cm) is ok for me. And it does have upholstery, always nice for seating comfort :o). When I sat on the chair in the showroom (shortly) it felt ok, but my companion (taller) did not agree with that. Which leads me to wonder: Would this chair be comfortably enough to sit on for longer stretches of time (Let?s say 2 hours or so) ?

Does anybody have any experience sitting on this chair for longer periods of time ?

(just as some sort of reference for bodytype: I am approx 1m 70 tall )

many thanks,
ite
