"$1,000 chairs"
Not an expert here, but from what I heard, that would be a bargain for a good office chair. And having a good chair or not - you literally feel the difference.

I've been using the same $25 chair I bought 45 years ago. I've always thought the "ergonomic chair" was a scam.
I think ergonomic chairs are good for people who have poor posture. If you have a strong core and sit up straight all the time, you can probably sit on just about anything and be fine.
(I'm not saying you're wrong. I think the real solution is that people should take better care of their physical selves. Certainly there are also people with particular conditions and do need the more ergonomic setup, but I expect that's a small percentage of the total.)
Well, I do lot's of sport and can sit comfortable on hard ground meditating for quite some time. I still enjoy a good chair way more than something "normal" for any longer computer sessions.
If a chair is too comfortable, I just fall asleep in it. It doesn't make me work better.
A chair isn't any answer to poor posture. The answer is exercising your core muscles, being aware of your posture, and constantly correcting it.
Well, I found a good chair helps me, with keeping a good posture. Otherwise good advise.
For sure. $1000 Herman Miller Aeron has been worth every penny considering the time spent sat on it.
I've been on those fancy chairs when I worked at a faang.
Honestly, they aren't any better than my ikea office chair I stole from my first house when I was a student (and that's been with me for the last 15 years). It has probably costed less than 100 €/$.
Ikea stuff is really underrated in this sense.
Ergonomics is definitely something to skimp on!
