I recently furnished our children's bedroom in wall to wall Ikea ....nice pure white theme, which always looks nice in a Victorian house. I can't wait to go there office shopping!

That chair had perfect arm to leg to desk positioning and was super comfortable - however it kept falling apart at some of the joins after 4 years of sitting at it hour after hour, and pushing it back and forth (no wheels!), and no amount of re-gluing seemed to help, lol. In fact the only way I found able to tolerate this new chair and prevent back pain, was to strap something to the arm rest to correct the arm to desk positioning which wasn't right despite adjusting chair height etc. So I've got an Adobe Illustrator user manual taped around the arm to raise my arm height. Can you see how much I need a new office? ;) Clearly 'new chair' also being a priority!

The amount of time spent sitting in one, it makes sense to splash out. I got a wonderfully comfortable office chair from IKEA. The amount of time spent sitting in one, it makes sense to splash out.
