I really like my Lazyboy from Costco ($200). The Autonomous chair also isn’t bad but really hard to assemble

Super hard to disassemble ....almost impossible to return

I got the Autonomous Myo. Print instructions made no sense but they have a YouTube video that I followed instead. Made assembly pretty easy!

I just bought a seat and lumbar pad from Purple, before I dropped $1k on an ergonomic chair like the one I have at the office. It’s worked out pretty well since April.

Bought a Hyken chair from Staples based on recommendations from here. Been really please with it.

Finally found THE one, after over a year of searching and trying out at least 5 different ones!

A nice comfortable office chair.

My criteria: mesh seat and back, arms, headrest

I tried cheap ones from Amazon. Expensive, second hand gaming chairs. Tried HM Aeron (second hand) and while I didn't like the bulk and the general design, I was sold on the mesh seating. I wanted to get the ErgoChair 2 from autonomous, but it doesn't have mesh seat.

AMA.

1099 or w-2 ? I have been given the option though the company prefers w-2. It’s a day rate booking couple of months or more (no end date). I already have 1099 from similar company this year and am leaning towards 1099, but I don’t want to be difficult. I do take home office deduction and they are not supplying any equipment. Suggestions?
