Jurgen: Steigerman Bench World used to sell an Italian made bench built on the gas tube like many office chairs. Wholesale 3 or 4 years ago was about $145.00. I bought one for a voice teacher here and she has loved it. I recently tried to buy another from them and was told that the Euro/Dollar exchange had made it too expensive for them to carry. They seem to specialize in reasonable-price benches. You might try to track down the source and see if you can carry them reasonably. They are quick to adjust, simple and like the office chairs last a long time. David M.

She is looking for a piano bench with the spring lever quick adjustment feature, the kind of mechanism found on some piano chairs (with backs) made in Japan or Europe. Does anyone know of a source for benches with this kind of height adjustment mechanism?
