Any recommendations for office chairs for short people? Think seat hights as low as 15". This wfh setup is killing me and I am having so much trouble finding chairs online that are short enough for me

1. Haha fuck you 😆
2. This is already how I look in regular chairs

I’m 5ft tall and I love my humanscale freedom task chair. They’re expensive, but someone is selling refurbished ones on amazon as a much cheaper price. Mine is refurbished by that same company (Madison seating) it’s not as perfect as it would be brand new, but still an excellent chair in my opinion

It’s not super squishy like you’d want a couch, but it definitely has padding, so I wouldn’t worry about that.

Have you considered foot stools op? I’ve had to do a mix of adding a cushion to my desk chair to make me the appropriate height for the desk, but then use a foot stool to rest my feet on so they’re not dangling. #shortpeopleprobs

Oh I have one, but it's not the same. Doesn't help when I have to keep moving around, and my chair is too deep anyway so it's uncomfortable even with the footrest perfectly placed.

I think I'm at the point where I'm willing to splurge for something that's actually comfortable and made for someone my height.

I got an even bigger chair so I can sit Indian style. (is there a PC way to say that?)

Good evening all,
With my partner we are considering making a move to the countryside of Switzerland, with a gorgeous RE project offering incredible views on immaculate mountains and lake. However, it is far away, and will require 1h+ train/car commute vs. 10 min biking right now. We are scared it will bite us back at some point, although COVID helped w/ remote working being a new norm. The project will be done 2024, so I hope to have a more relax job by then. Any similar experience to share?
