What is a saddle stool and how is it different from a drafting chair?

A saddle stool has a seat shaped like a horse saddle — raised center with sloped sides — that positions the user with hips forward and spine in a natural lumbar curve. It is used in applications requiring full rotation and forward-leaning access, such as dental labs, surgical environments, and some drafting applications. A drafting chair is more broadly applicable and includes back support. Saddle stools are specialty items. At OfficeFurniture2go.com, we carry both — call 1-800-460-0858 for guidance.
