A good chair. I know it's not technically a gadget but if you're spending half of your day on the computer you should spend on a good chair with proper lumbar support. Your back will thank you.
Buy a used Aeron chair on Craigslist or something. I’ve gotten 2 of them like this and love them. They last forever and are extremely comfortable.
A Mira works well too and doesn't get as much attention as the Aeron, so will be cheaper.
Good call out. Aeron’s are twice the price and the Mira is a great chair too. Tech startups LOVE to splurge on high end chairs and then they liquidate when they go under. That’s how I’ve gotten mine.
There are a few companies on eBay that sell refurb Aerons. I got a like new on for $400. Not exactly cheap, but waaaaay less than retail and comparable to the fancy “gamer” chairs.
Completely agree. I got a Steelcase for a steal on Craigslist and it has been the best chair I’ve ever owned.
