I too, am a leg-tucker/criss-cross-applesauce sitter. While doing a significant amount of research for a new desk chair, this popped up on my Instagram, so I dug into the different companies that make them. My biggest concerns were 1. would it be suitable for 8+ hours a day sitting and 2. would it be high enough for my height-adjustable desk? YES, to both! I sometimes use a small pillow (as seen in the picture) to help with how deep the seat is on occasion. I did purchase some Scotch Guard for the fabric as well. It has been the best find!
