Ι also use a wooden dining chair. I find the simplicity and hardness of the wood quite pleasant. I do use an adjustable height standing desk, so the main potential issue of a height mismatch between chair and table isn't a problem. One small issue with the chair is that the seat has a slight upward angle, as opposed to the downward angle recommended in the article. I add a buckwheat crescent pillow, which solves this and gives me the option of sitting in a wider variety of positions.
