That’s the chair you should choose if your back is on fire.

Back pain is one of many side effects of programming in Javascript, and any other language like, specifically, Java.

In this article I won’t indicate what chair will help you, because I’m not a doctor. I’m a horse.

But seriously, there are in fact some comfortable alternatives to the Ikea chairs, expensive and uncomfortable products as I’ve learned.

I’m actually looking for something. I don’t know if these are good or not. You really shouldn’t rely on my opinions.

Surely I’d consult with my doctor or physician and especially partner before using any of these if you have health issues.

Ah, also I’d like to indicate this article isn’t sponsored in any form. It should, but it isn’t ☺

For a lot of people Aeron is the finest art of chairing when other chairs don’t chair.

I find it nice, and costs around 1750 euro up to 2600 euro if you choose all the fancy features.
