Quote from zdreg:

this is typical of ET. never ask a factual question. the response rate is usually near zero.

So you respond without answering the question...

simple... i don't know the answer but with tens of thousand of et members an answer to a factual question should be forthcoming but is not.

Hopefully you'll stick around and straighten this place out.

Quote from WinstonTJ:

Looking for a decent "carpet friendly" chair. New place has wall-to-wall and it's your standard "family room" type carpet (not low-profile office/industrial carpet).

Those plastic chair mats are really ugly and I don't want to use one. Wife and I have his & hers desks so I'd like something that's somewhat affordable since I want to buy two (matching).

Want something that will roll reasonably well on the carpet, be comfortable and look fairly minimal.

Budget <$500 per chair. Ideally this would be something I can find on craigslist used??

These should do the trick, Hoss.

I trade standing at a "Jefferson Desk", named for President Thomas Jefferson. I'm considering getting a treadmill to go under the desk. My former chair was an executive chair from Sam'sClub.

Here is an inexpensive way to get up from the chair, take an occasional break from being seated, and stand up while working from laptop.
When retiring at night into bed, you can still use the table to work on a laptop.

Adjustable Height Laptop Table

Could you advise on your position sizing method?

Strongly recommend All-Steel Acuity.

http://www.allsteeloffice.com/acuity/ (starts @ around $725)

Have had it for nearly 4 years now for trade-desk, phenomenal. 10-hr day type use.

For reference, have 2+ yrs seat time in well optioned Aeron, and shorter period in Steelcase Leap. Acuity hands down. I'd stick to mesh back and seat pad cloth or leather material left to personal preference.

Never cheap out on work chair or mattress.

One week in and I'm happy with my Herman Miller Mirra chair. Neckache due to multi monitors has been a problem for a while now but the chair has made a positive difference over the past week so I'm adding a second one for another workspace...

I was considering the RH Logic 400 but the price was quite a bit higher and I know the Mirra does the job for me. I purchased an expensive lounge chair in the past after testing in the shop and it ended up made my neck ache worse. The point being that it takes days or weeks not 20-30 minutes testing in a shop to know if the chair will work for you.
