Has anyone own one of these office chairs?

Hi everyone,

I am just wandering if anyone owns one of these office chairs

from relax the back store? If so, which one do you
own? What do you think about it? Does it help you to relieve your back
pain when you are sitting long hours (12H max week days and week ends) in
front of a computer? Any feedback is greatly appreciated

I have no experience with the chairs you linked to, but I do have experience with the Aeron chair. Just incredible - no discomfort even after a full day of holding the desk down. How much do I like it? I'm getting one for home too.

$800 for a CHAIR!!!

This used to be the first sign a new dotcom was doomed [i.e. that they spent their money on Aerons instead of servers]

I have sat in these before (at a doomed dotcom I worked at). Yeah they are comfortable, but not worth $800 to me.

yeesh... with a student budget.. i think i can afford one of these:



this goes for $24.99

Get the $6.99 one at Wal-Mart that you can roll up and throw over your shoulder.

Likely they will begin having them at Dot-coms so that staff can pack up easily when they close.

how about these? they are made of hard plastic so they are very durable, and they come preassembled. they also come in different colors!

my office has Herman Miller Equa 2 chairs (the managers get Aeron chairs though.) we actually just got them a few months ago when we moved into a new office.

there was also a whole bunch of them in a closet because our office isn't finished yet... so my coworker and i were plotting to take them and sell them, cause they cost over 400 bucks each.

but then we decided that it would be a bad idea. so we didn't

the library i worked at when i was in school had these for the supervisors that worked there. since i was a student supervisor (and hardly ever did any actual library related work) while i was there, i used to sit in them all they time. they are wicked comfortable! i notice the price has dropped significantly since they bought them 4 years go (they were about $1100 each back then). if i had money i'd buy one for home. i, however, use the lovely type of chair K2 suggested.
