Is it worth spending $400 on a high-end drafting stool or is a $60 one good enough?

I dropped $400 on a steelcase drafting stool last year because my back was killing me after 8 hour sessions. My coworker swears by his $60 one from amazon and says the extra cost is a scam. I've had mine for 14 months and my back pain is way better but the padding is already flattening out. Has anyone else tried cheaper stools that actually hold up or am I just wasting money on brand names?

You ever sit on something for so long that you start thinking about the ergonomics of your couch at home too... That's where I'm at now.

Totally feel you man, the whole couch ergo spiral hits different after a long day in a chair.
