The problem is finding a place I can try 'em at. Wasn't able to, I'll try more before I purchase, but didn't find any good options really.

@johnfrum It's 50/50 that, and my current chair is pretty worn. I take care of my stuff well, so if I pay double for something that lasts 3x as long, it's a better deal long-term.

chairs/beds/etc are stuff you hopefully buy for life

so testing and sinking money on them is not that bad of investment

Oh, score, yeah, Herman Miller covers return shipping, and Steelcase at least has a return policy, so I can just order and try them. At $1k+/chair, eh, I'll risk having to pay return shipping.

(sure beds need re-springs and stuff but yeha)

Do people rebuild mattresses?!

True, but for something with as many miving parts as a modern ergo chair its closer to a car, you can keep it running but at what point do you just upgrade like a normal person.

when it no longer serves your needs ?

or is safe

What's to upgrade to? The Aeron came out 26 years ago

Also I am a cheap fuck but I have also never heard of rebuilding matresses

<:thenk:329322130804047872>

some matresses have easy-to-open seam

so that springs can be switched for different style springs and stuff like that

Steelcase Leap(1999) and Herman Miller Aeron(1992) are the two I see recommended the most.

best program to ez transfer files from PC to laptop?

also enables you to repair said springs

yeah and i can vote for the leap being darn good chair

Huh, what an odd concept but makes sense given the massive pain in the ass it is to throw out matresses.

lemme find you example (if they are still a thing that is)

I'm kinda leaning towards the Leap, because the only mesh chair I tried was a pretty nice one(I mean, for one from an Office Depot/Office Max/Staples type store), but I hated having the soft chair with the hard frame in front

this is slightly bad example what i mean but current springs mostly are like this http://www.dcgstores.com/resize/shared/productimages/wolf/a9900-wolf-futon-mattress.jpg?lr=t&bw=450

But since HM covers shipping, I might try them first.

coiled stuff in their own packages

which factories just switch regarding "what stiffness" you want your bed to be

Oh, I was thinking they were like old old school chairs that needed actual trained people to replace springs for. This is pretty intrestin tho the foam would probably wear out faster than the springs

enables users do different stiffness zones (want it to be more hard/stiff on the corners so you dont fall of as easily? done want to have queen bed with soft and hard side?? done and done)

yeah afaik these https://www.armaghbeds.com/sites/default/files/images/Continuous%20Coil.jpg are long gone

at least around here

its these now

Man that looks comfy

icoil™

yeah beds have come lightyears forward in last 20 or so years

new beds are very very nice stuff compared to older stuff

You know what needs to be made? A cookbook with specific measurements for thicknesses of cut and dough and measurements for pan heat that require an IR thermometer, I'll name it the Caliper Cook.

na, na-na-na-na-na-na-na
