So the idea of “buy it for life” is to buy items that are durable and last for a long time, things you could buy once and have your whole life, which can save money and be good for the environment
What are some of the top items you recommend for this?
Working somewhere that had only Herman Miller chairs fucking broke me.
Almost like ergonomics is individual and not a fucking brand name.
I’ve yet to find a “serious office chair” that actually properly supports MY spine the way my supposedly shitty “gaming” chair does.
Mainly because the concept of a “serious office chair” is horseshit. A chair is either good or bad and sucking off one particular name over and over doesn’t change the fact that a well-made uncomfortable piece of shit is still and uncomfortable piece of shit.
I use steelcase, who have an extremely adjustable chair in the leap and the gesture.
Perhaps you weren’t using the correct size for your body. I know that the aeron comes in three sizes as well as the old and new models.
It’s not about the brand name, they’re well known to be adjustable for the individual, as well as being well made.
Or maybe they’re just not the magical pixie dust so many people that don’t own them think they are. Multiple sizes of Mirra and Aeron killed my upper back. As it turns out, having shitty mesh doesn’t actually support your back so much as it just wedges it into a vaguely U shape. I tried “superior office chair” after “OMG AMAZING OFFICE CHAIR” and the only thing that doesn’t leave me reaching for pain pills are good quality gaming chairs, which are typically stiffer.
Because, again, ergonomics is an individual thing and not a fucking marketing point. An “ergonomic” chair is only “ergonomic” if you happen to personally fit that manufacturer’s definition of “ergonomic.”
