At the momoment I,m a bit restricted on keyboard so doing catch up on other areas. Trying to find office or computer stores that sell seats with backs. In our part of the country we lost Staples, so looking online. I did see some but unable to try first is a bit of a problem. Any ideas would be helpful, also not arm and a leg.

It's nevver a good idea to go cheap on an office chair.

My last chair lasted me 15 years before the tilt mechanism gave out.

I replaced it three years ago with one of these.


I suffer from chronic lower back pain and this chair has done wonders for fixing that problem.

It's solid enough to hold up to 300 lbs and the springs are firm and have just enough give that I can lean back comfortably without worrying about tipping over.

It wasn't all that cheap but I consider it money well spent and it shoulod hopefully last me another 15 to 20 years.

If you have a hunt through the charity shops near you then you may find what you seek.

Specifically, some have large out of town retail units that sell furniture.

The Hospice near where I live has about six shops, each specialising in different goods, one of which is nothing but furniture of all types.

Have a drive around some of the office blocks on the Industrial Estates to see if any have Builders vans and skips outside signifying that there is refurbishment taking place, often old office furniture is skipped so you may also get lucky there.

Any Shops with Closing Down notices may accept a few quid for an office chair that they will soon not need.

One more avenue to check up on is the AgeUK shops/locations,

Explain what you want and more than likely they will find one for you and a volunteer may even deliver it to your home for you.

On a different tack, what a great County you live in, part of my family come from around Orcop and Garway, we did the family tree thing visiting locations where relatives lived.

Um, Bellowsboy is in Hertfordshire, not Herefordshire - nice part of the world, though.

Hi Bellowsboy, I'm ex-Stevenage, Herts. myself.
