What type of chair do you use for working/ desk?

I have this. Not a fan of it at all.

I use a lumbar support to make it work better for me.

I also stack my monitors on phonebooks to put them at eye-level, as well as my keyboard to keep it at elbow height.

I'd recommend something like this.

It's a ball.

Probably from people falling off it left and right.
It's not a bug, it's a feature!


Seriously... I hear your points, but hard to imagine working on that all day.

 

my current job and my last job had these. I love it

Wrong. It's a fitness orb.

There was a study done during the dot.com era that showed that the majority of internet companies that bought those chairs went bankrupt versus a more reasonably priced chair.

I have a replica of that chair, but I hate it: because since I usually sit with my feet in the chair, the friction of the mesh is as bad as a carpet burn.

The mesh doesn't provide a whole lot of benefits in my opinion and the carpet burns are a huge downside.

 

I have a feeling they all went bankrupt for a numerous number of other reasons. Yes overspending can be a demise of these companies, but internet companies as a whole all crashed and burned.

 

I think you're supposed to be clothed when sitting in them.



:grin:

 

Lol. This looks like those $600-$1000+ "ergonomic" chairs I see in IT departments every so often. Cracks me up.

To OP : Don't get a chair that uses microfiber... biggest mistake I made. Bah. I've only had my current one for 2 years and already need a new one because it's falling apart (cloth torn, foam popping through, etc.).

 

Jesus Christ get some better monitors!

 

Ergonomics mother****er!!!!!!!

 

We use these. Sitting for long streches is actually pretty bad for you.
