In response to the thread:
Aero seems to be the buzz word among people getting chairs. If you keep this chair for 35+ years, it might be worth it. I don't know, I never sat in one, but I've only heard good things.


I explained the knife. It's because I keep losing my two best knives which I use to cut a lot of vegetables (I'm in a condo, so everything is about 2 feet from each other. I leave my room to the kitchen and I'll have my knife to cut veggies instead of checking 600 different empty drawers).

Toothbrush is for dusting my computer off. The room has no circulation (it's about 27 Celsius in here), so my comptuer gets dusty often.

I have my actual toothbrush by my bedside (to the right of the chair is my bed).

The Aero is a really comfortable chair, I just hate the arm rests.

He cuts his bologna with it.



Torte, what about arms like this?

It'll make the list :3 Thanks! I actually think that might work (better than no chair ): )!

I was satisfied with my chair until I read this thread. You seem so sure about your wants and needs.

I feel... lost

I know, right? I'm never sure about my wants/needs in regards to anything in life. At least, not as sure as Torte is about the office chair he wants. O.o

There are very few things I'm sure of in life.
When it comes to comfortability, I know what I like because it's very simple.

It's missing an arm and the fabric is coming off.
I must see your chair now if this is better

Currently my dream chair. I am returning to school soon and since i am going into a field that requires a ton of sitting, i thought i would invest in the nicest chair i could find. Hoping to be able to save the funds for it by the summer of 2012 >.< assuming i dont find a better chair to buy other than this one by then.

But you are right the arm rests do look funky. I did sit in one once before, but i didnt really have time to fully test it out. I am sure by the time i have the funds i will be able to sit in one for a longer period of time. I know a couple ppl who own it at their office.

I currently use some $50 dollar chair from costco ive had for a couple years now. Works for now ^_^
It rained today inside my head...

It's amazing how long it's lasted! Nowadays, chairs only last a few years on average lol.

I've had that chair for QA testing for some games from EA, Pandemic, etc. It is a very comfortable chair, but yeah, the arm rests are a big facto for me.

SteelSeries QcK Mini. Love that mousepad. I would suggest XS cargo, but unfortunately they don't have any stores in Quebec. If you're down for a drive to an Ontario location it's worth a shot. They have a website.

I think he was saying he likes your mousepad... or one similar. From the pictures.

And the link is for a store that sells chairs.


Edit: Duh.
And why don't you trust c-list or ebay? I love both and have never had a bad experience.

Ooh, I just realized that now.

I want a new mousepad, this one is too small and it constantly slides around (believe it or not).

I don't trust Ebay and Craigslist because I don't trust strangers.

I believe you. I like my razer cloth mousepad a lot. I prefer to play games while sitting on my bed these days, and I'm surprised it works so well.

I only buy from sellers who have good ratings on ebay. I'm far more leery when buying things from c-list. After selling random shit through the years on both amazon and ebay, I know how it feels. Bad feedback kills you on those sites, so I always made sure to describe items accurately and ship promptly.

You can chill out. Ebay is fun and getting packages in the mail is one of my favorite things. So exciting!
