What type of chair do you read in /lit/?

I have a sofa, I have dining room chairs, a plastic chair - but I am always so restless in them.

I want something like a cockpit chair, or a lounge chair. Armrests, wood, leather or vinyl cushioning. Danish mid century would be cool, but there are no Ikeas within 500 miles. I am just going to post some images of what I am thinking about.

Here is a dental chair available near where I live.
It might be comfy - a little weird though.

I'm about to throw my sofa out and getting something nice and comfy. Thinking about this one.

You can get a reproduction for 700 on amazon... I don't know if I could risk buying one without sitting in it first though.

I do most my reading in these proto-eames and plain jane cushiony things.

I'd like a nice book stand that can swivel and adjust to your hearts content. Some books are heavy. Couldn't find a picture, so I guess it's not worth it to make them.

I just read in bed

Why sit when you can lie ?

Absolutely disgusting. You'd feel confined to the same seating position without armrests to juggle yourself around.

I often read in this, or on my couch, or lying in bed.

The chair's larger than it looks, and it's a recliner, but yeah, I see where you're coming from.

Currently my desk chair, so can't read for more than 20 minutes or my neck starts to hurt. I'd like to get something like this, but it's too small even for the persons in the picture and I'm a lot taller.

Currently using your pic related while "chair sitting" for my brother who doesn't have room for them at the moment. Pretty good, but the arm rests are too close together and tough for my liking, because I sometimes like to cross my legs. Gotta love dat rock though.

That's not that much for something that will potentially last you a lifetime.
