That $200 'ergonomic' chair I bought online was a total disaster
I saw all the hype about this mesh chair from a random brand on TikTok and bought it for $200 back in March. The seat padding went flat after just 2 weeks, and the armrests started wobbling by day 10. Now I'm stuck with a returned item that they charged me $45 shipping to send back, so I lost $45 and gained nothing. Anyone else get burned by cheap office chair ads?

oh man this reminds me of what happened to my friend Karen. she saw this ad for a $180 "luxury" mesh chair on instagram and ordered it. the thing came with a missing screw and the lumbar support was basically just a piece of foam that slid down after 3 days. she tried to return it and they said she had to pay return shipping plus a restocking fee. ended up selling it on facebook marketplace for $40 just to get it out of her apartment. cheap chairs are such a trap.

@the_susan you're right about cheap chairs being a trap, but $180 isn't really "cheap" for a chair, it's just a bad deal.
