Hi! Have been searching for a good desk chair but it seems like I have to choose between breaking the bank or breaking my back. Looking for something comfortable yet affordable. I'd appreciate any recommendations! THANKS!

I went to Office Depot and sat in every chair before I selected the chair I wanted.

Lol— exactly what (and where!) I did. Ultimately a high back from Serta. That was 14 years ago, and the chair has seen me through seven back surgeries and made it tolerable.

Honestly, I’d break the bank. Don’t think of it at a or b, but an investment in both. Protect your back because you’ll pay for it if you don’t. Seven years ago. I had to have three back surgeries in a week. My back and neck are still painful at times, and my hands, knees, and feet have been negatively affected by them.

Honestly got my ( looks like) barely used expensive office chairs from the side of the road. I had 6 at one point so could really test chairs out. You might ask any local offices if they are doing furniture up grades. Our district will provide expensive chairs if you can prove need (medical). Office Depot has teacher discounts but I am not sure how far this will stretch. Have you looked into PTSA funding?

Good evening everyone,

I have to rant and seek advice. It’s my 5th year teaching overall. I’m a 1st year at a new district it’s been really nice except for just some very small inconveniences: no classroom budget, too many meetings during planning time, printers are so bad that I had to bring mine from home, my district gives teachers chromebooks for laptops. I’m a a point where if I was invited to come back next year I’d say tell them no, am I crazy, is it just me? Please help
