[Michlib-l] Patron Computer Chairs

[Donna Winter]

I recommend going with a chair that is not padded. I know what you're thinking "how mean! what about the comfort of our patrons with piles?" 
My logic: cushioned chairs get gross after a few years because of the great unwashed and spilled beverages that shouldn't even be by the computers anyway. No cushion also encourages people to either get up and step away from the computer once in a while and/or not to linger beyond a reasonable amount of public computer time. 

We bought these a few years ago from bizchair.com and they are holding up well: Mid-back black plastic swivel task chair item # RUT-A103-BK-GG

Greetings to the Collective! 
We are in the market for new public use computer chairs and I'm wondering if there are particular brands or features anyone would like to recommend. Perhaps I should add: For the lowest possible price... 

Any info will be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time!
