Shoutout to the $300 'ergonomic' barber chair that wrecked my back
Everyone said it was a must-have for posture, but after a month my lower back is worse than with my old $80 stool. Has anyone found a good chair that actually works for long days?

Oh man, I feel this in my spine right now. I dropped way too much on a "gaming" throne that promised to fix my slouch, and now I'm back on a dining room chair with a pillow. It's like the more they charge, the more likely it is to turn you into a human pretzel. My wallet and my back are both still in recovery.

That bit about the wallet and back being in recovery is too real. I read a whole article about how some of these "ergonomic" chairs are basically designed for a perfect posture statue, not a living person who actually moves. They lock you into one position that's supposedly correct, and if your body isn't that exact shape, it just strains everything.
