You're kidding right? Those seats are terrible, mind you that could have been because the tractors had no suspension.

But those were probably metal seats, unlike the "metal" seats this site talks about, which were probably actually spray-painted plastic.

I am tempted, though, to call up their "seating experts" to find out what happens if you try to order a chair without the "optional" arm rests.

I think this is a better option if you're ever in the market.

For the mobile users... http://www.thesquattypotty.com/
I usually just rest myself upon whatever is available.
Right now I am sitting upon a 'dining' chair.   VERY unhealthy, I assure you.

Define "better". They are different.

You won't be sitting on the website, it's a functional way of choosing the product you need, nothing more. Are you of the same opinion when you choose car tyres? "Sorry, your website is terribly designed, so I cannot possibly buy the same amazing tyres I've bought for the last 25 years, as I need you to entertain me first".
