I think I found one on Facebook marketplace that should suit me very well! Hopefully it will work out to pick it up this week. 🙂

I found this online and it looks pretty good, although it's kind of number that I'd have to buy two. Any thoughts or recommendations? It's a lot easier to use what you have, but I'm not sure which direction to go since I don't have anything that would work, if that makes sense... Oh, and for reference, if it helps with chair back height recommendations, I'm 5'5".

Laura,

I have the Stakmore chair pictured and it works well for me. I bought it at Costco and they were sold individually. I like the straight back, padded cushion, and the fact that it folds up. I am 5'4".

Good call for anybody interested in these... If you have a Costco membership they are $99.99 for a two pack. The single is only available at the warehouse so I don't know if mine has it or not. I think I'm still going to go with the marketplace one just because it's slightly taller, but this one is so tempting because it folds...

Oh, I didn’t realize it folded! That is nice.

I'm 5'4" and use a metal folding chair with padding on the seat. It folds up and I store it under the couch. Easy to pull out and put away. I even use it for planks and burpee modifications; I simply put it against the couch so that it becomes even sturdier and doesn't move. The height is perfect for stretching. I think I got mine at Target.
