Having one of these extended-height chairs can make a big difference when you need to take a rest now and then, and helps reduce fatigue and strain from long days at work. From upright drafting chairs with foot rings to posture-correcting kneeling stools, you're sure to find your seat of choice in our selection. When users buy our independently chosen editorial recommendations, we may earn commissions to help fund the Wiki.

Born and raised in the American Deep South, Misty's career in elder care took a sharp left turn when she was swept away to the land of Robin Hood by her very own Merry Man. She's a coffee-swilling master of stitch-witchery with a magical touch in the kitchen and a neverending stream of Disney gag reels playing in her head. A certified nursing assistant by trade and a toy aficionado by choice, some intense parenting ensured she was well versed in gardening, carpentry and electrical engineering by the time she entered grade school. Her culinary artistry, tool-wielding wizardry, and skill with needle and thread were honed over nearly four decades in the kitchens, workrooms, and outdoor spaces of family, friends, and clients. Voracious reading took care of the rest.
