In the market for a new desk chair! I work remotely and probably spend 8-12 hours of my day in my chair. I'm tired of buying a new $100-$150 chair off of amazon every year and a half or so. Any good recommendations on a brand that is built to last but won't totally break the bank?

Get a standing desk and take breaks from sitting. Makes a world of difference!

like

I feel like everyone I've talked to that actually has a standing desk never uses it.

If you spend so much seating on your chair, the investment its really important for sure. I like the gamers chair that are very confortable, its feel like a couch almost hehe.

I've heard gamers chairs are the move. But I'm still nervous that they're made with the same cheap pleather that ultimately wears down.

I totally get it. I was tired of replacing cheap chairs too. I would check out the Branch Ergonomic Chair, that's what I bought and I've been super happy with it. It's a little more costly than things I was buying before but it's so much more comfortable and actually built to last. Totally worth it in my experience

I'll have to check out Branch. I'm willing to spend more now to avoid having to keep replacing what I currently have.

Get a Bungee Office Chair- (Google it). It will change your life

I am going to agree with this. I have this same chair and it has literally changed my life.

Does the addition of “(level) II” make a difference to anybody? I am the only marketing communications specialist for a lead child-welfare nonprofit. We oversee four counties in two circuits. Director recently gave me add’l merit-based raise (after my annual raise, been here 14 months) & slight title change to Marketing Comm Specialist II. No plans to add a level 1 (would be lower) specialist but will add level 1 engagement specialist to team. Should I update resume/cards or is this confusing?
