ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to chairs and work stations. One embodiment of the present invention is for a chair comprising a base and a seat supported by the base, wherein the seat has a seat front and a seat back.

The first mode of operation includes an occupant sitting on the seat facing forward, and the second mode of operation includes an occupant sitting on the seat facing rearward. A stowable table is attached to the backrest. When in an upright position the stowable table extends in a substantially rearward direction. The stowable table may be stowed when not in use. A method of setting up and utilizing a portable work station is also described. The method includes utilizing a chair-table combination wherein the table is stowable. Particular embodiments of the invention are optimized for use as a manicurist's chair-table, and a portable laptop support.
