They look pretty well padded and in good shape? Anyone have anything like this? I'm going to contact the seller and ask for height and width dimension.

I owned some. They’re a tad too short.

Thanks, that is my primary concern. Hot glue a short stack of dice chips to the feet perhaps?

 

[Jeff]

Actually, that might be a good option!!

It’s wierd that another half inch or so would be what you need.

Wouldn't really effect me, I always bring my desk chair to the table because I'm dealing and swiveling to get at the chips and cash, but I don't want my players to be uncomfortable, and I absolutely hate sitting at a table with a short chair while trying to play board games and such.

I got 12 church chairs, very similar to that, and they are a tad short. Way more comfortable than folding metal chairs, just makes you feel like you're sitting at a "big boy" table

When you're 5'2", either every chair is too short or every table is too high. (n) :thumbsdown:

Yeah, right now I have 6 or so very thinly padded stacking chairs, and folding metal/plastic chairs. I do think these would be a significant upgrade for player comfort.

I guess they don't have to be sitting up and reaching for pots much either, since I do most of that work as the dealer.

Another option is to buy twice as many chairs and stack two for each person.

That just might be crazy enough to work.

Your chair cushions are the best ever! For other people's games I usually bring one of mine (although sometimes I need two).

Chair cushions are a good idea too to elevate just a bit.

I also feel like a common complaint is the recline angle.
