But If you were having $200 budget then you could have found some other chair much better than this.<br /><br />Moreover, Amazon has some great chairs listed under this budget. Either way, I'm happy for you and congrats for this chair.Davidhttps://theluxurychairs.com/best-office-chair-under-200/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618029197139250711.post-2309027977065562622015-11-25T04:26:47.970-08:002015-11-25T04:26:47.970-08:00If one have a budget of 200 dollars then Boss Blac...If one have a budget of 200 dollars then Boss Black chair is another good option.<br />I have also tried Aeron and Lorell Executive chairs.Both are also good options.Jhontyhttp://www.bestgamingchairreviews.com/what-is-the-best-computer-gaming-chair/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618029197139250711.post-38859365519276798032014-06-03T03:21:25.857-07:002014-06-03T03:21:25.857-07:00For $200, you could have bought a high back mesh c...For $200, you could have bought a high back mesh chair instead like the Lorell Executive High-Back Chair.

Do you work on a laptop all the time? It's not good for your neck to be looking down at the screen all the time. Maybe you could type on a separate keyboard and buy a special platform to raise the laptop about 10-12 cm (4-5 inches). Some people even recommend that the top of the screen should be on the same level as the top of your head.<br /><br />I've been working on a simple IKEA chair for ten years without any back problems. Nothing fancy, but it does support my lower back very well. It is worn out now, so I'm looking for another cheap adjustable chair with a low back and no arm rests (they only get in the way).<br /><br />Your mileage may vary, perhaps a high-back chair would help, since you're taller than me.Edwin den Boerhttp://www.proz.com/profile/90306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618029197139250711.post-61250084348817328012010-03-12T20:44:39.712-08:002010-03-12T20:44:39.712-08:00Great comments, everyone!

Tess: we will have to check out the ball chair, sounds very intriguing.<br /><br />@GG: you are right, in the long run, Judy will need one with a headrest, similar to Dagy's mega-expensive chair. Wanted to start with something more affordable for now, but it will soon come to that...<br /><br />@Anonymous: thanks for your comment. Dagy has a height-adjustable desk, and she works standing up quite a bit, but the neck problems persist (sigh). Might look into a treadmill desk like our friend Corinne McKay! Great advice on sitting/standing combo. And yes, we try to take breaks every hour or so and do some stretches, sit-ups, etc. We wish you the best of luck in your transition to entrepreneurship! It's the best thing Judy ever did.Judy Jenner and Dagmar Jennerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15991071510108619107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618029197139250711.post-39831925448582854712010-03-11T14:33:42.375-08:002010-03-11T14:33:42.375-08:00Why does everybody wonder that they have backache ...Why does everybody wonder that they have backache etc. after sitting on a chair for 8, 10, 12 hours? <br />A very good solution is to change position, i. e. <br />to change the sitting position as often as possible, to stand up at least every hour, walking around a bit. <br />But even better is to combine this with alternation between sitting and standing. It's easy to find heigh adjustable desks, and their aren't even expensive. You can easily (electronically) change the heigh of the whole desk with your computer and everything on it and continue your work standing. <br /><br />I'm still working in a translation office (needless to say that they don't provide those things for their employees), but believe me: as soon as I start my own translation business (I have plans :-) ), the first thing I will buy is such a desk!<br /><br />Regards,<br />K.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618029197139250711.post-69088710172803225442010-03-10T05:21:08.073-08:002010-03-10T05:21:08.073-08:00Don't want to spoil your enthusiasm, but after...Don't want to spoil your enthusiasm, but after going through <b>a lot</b> of chairs in my 15-year career (and neck pain),I found out that I needed a high-back chair, in order to support head/neck. Your chair does not look like that (and you're tall!) Furthermore, I lately found out that sitting in a chair is definitely not the best option either. Now I kind of" half sit and half lay", with my head and back resting on an ergonomical "half-chair". The best solution, though, would still be "not working" ;)GGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12076013868940673928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2618029197139250711.post-2835008743773507432010-03-09T10:52:33.695-08:002010-03-09T10:52:33.695-08:00I use the Gaiam balance ball chair for part of the...I use the Gaiam balance ball chair for part of the day and a regular chair when I get "tired" of the balance ball.
