Favorite Kind of Chair?
« on: October 03, 2025, 05:33:40 PM »
I like one with a little cushion for my boney butt.  But not too much!  And big fluffy recliners make my lower back hurt.  Couches just promote poor posture.  I really like my office chair.  It's got lumbar support and everything.  One bad thing about it is that I put one of those rollerblade wheel kits on it and now it rolls too easy!  Just resting my palms on my keyboard will make my chair start rolling back!  So I have to lock the wheels... Which just adds an unnecessary layer of complexity... the rollerblade mod SEEMS like a fun idea, until you're in it-would not recommend!

What say you?

I was in a snowmobile accident 15 years and twisted my lower back almost 180 degrees. Now my  butt is almost in the front so I like bean bag chairs mostly.

Before my dad died three years ago, he had a custom chair made for me where the bottom of the chair is reversed from what a normal chair would be. There was a nylon mesh pocket on the back ( but facing the front) for my colostomy bag and snacks. That chair caught on fire last year and I wasn't able to salvage it.

Sorry to hear that gg..

As I am on my computer only about an hour a day I use my workout bench in the upright position for my seat..

Works well with my hotas..and I get some dumbbell reps in during climb out..

thanks, Eagler - but I was just joking.  My butt isn't really in the front now.   :D

This has been a great chair actually. Can probbaly get it for $100 at office depot if you go at right time. Wife sits it all day for work and has 0 complaints and I use it for gaming and it has been quite solid.
