I have a permanent standing desk, it's actually a 3x11 desk surface built into the wall. I basically have two stations on it and I move back and forth between them depending on what I'm doing. I alternate between standing and sitting. For sitting, I got a drafting stool (with a back). These go up high enough. They do have a metal ring, but I found it more useful to keep a small footstool near where my feet will rest. I prefer having a flat surface to rest my feet on.
I got a Flash Furniture drafting stool originally in 2014. It works great, but I didn't like the armrests. In fact, the right hand one started to bend outwards a bit for some unknown reason.

Last year, I replaced it with "Staples Cabal Mesh Armless". This one has been working great and has much nicer padding than the prior one. If padding is important, I would recommend this one over the Flash Furniture one. But the first one did last me 4 years, and I still have it for if someone comes over to the office.
