I use a rubber-backed mousepad with the wrist rest on it. Turn it around and butt the pedal against the wrist rest. That sounds like a tongue-twister, lol!

Last September, when they were selling the back to school supplies, I went to Target and got a rolling desk chair. What was different about it was that the back and seat were made of some sort of bungie cord fabric. It is very cool and comfortable.

I have the same type of chair for my oldie but goldie machine but since I use both machines regularly it was bother moving the chair around in tight places. Never have a back problem with these chairs.

I use a cushioned office chair without arms. It's adjustable and I make it just right. It's also on wheels so I can roll to and from the ironboard even though it's usually to the left of me. The wheels help me move along just right. If I am at my computer it comes back in with me.

I used an office chair with lumbar cushion for a while then found a cheap bright red chair (lol) that had a very low back ... met my back only mid-way. However, it was great because it didnt push my upper back forward as most chairs seem to do. It was luck to find my red chair...funny how things work out.
