Best office chair? Price point not too much of an issue. Cheaper than orthopedic bills.

I’ve not tried it, but the Herman Miller Aeron seems to be the equivalent of the BMW 3 series of office chairs. Sort of the entree into higher end that seems to be the benchmark chair that is imitated by others. I bought one of those imitators for half the price for my WFH office and am happy with it.

Echo the Herman Miller chair. They’re expensive but last forever. You can also find “refurbished” ones online for significantly cheaper.

I have a Steelcase leap chair and really like it. They’re also pricey ($1000+).

My wife checked Amazon - Steelcase Series 1 is what I bought ($450).

Leap > Aeron for me

My wife just got me the Emerge Vortex Gaming Chair for my home office. My lord is it incredible.

I have a lot of back issues and I switched to a ball years ago. So, much better than a chair IMO.

How does that even work? Does it strengthen your back muscles over time?

X-chair from healthy back store is amazing! I bought it for the pandemic home office and it’s worth every penny. Herman Miller Arron is really good, but would be a second choice for me.

Neutral Posture has fantastic chairs.

Just landed a full time gig, looking to get some furniture so I’m not working on my parents’ kitchen table during this remote period. Any recommendations for desks and chairs? I’m hoping to find something that’s easy to assemble and break down for when I need to move, and something that won’t cost an arm and a leg.

I know everyone has a different kind of setup that works for them. I currently have a laptop, drawing pad, second monitor, and a desk riser.

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?

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid? Personally, I don’t want to relocate and go to the office on a contract role given the current economy. Plus, I’m assuming contractors are the first to go in layoffs. I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
