After suffering too many years on a cheap office chair I finally upgraded to a much nicer sitting environment. I bought a Herman Miller Caper multitask chair on Sunday and it was delivered a few minutes ago. So far the only task I've used it for is sitting. I can lean back! And I no longer have to contort myself into odd positions to get comfortable. This is a definite improvement.
Busy as a bee today and tomorrow so I may not post again until Friday.
ooh, i could use a chair like that. details. how much, from where, etc.

i am sitting on the exact same chair :)
we bought them for our meeting rooms, but i liked it better than my office chair and swapped them.

I got it at Sam Flax on W 20th for $499. Later I saw it on a website for $399. Ouch! I preferred the Mirra chair, but it was $200-250 more and my wallet was not willing.

It was not easy to spend that much money on a chair! As far as I could tell, and I sat in a lot of chairs, there's not much difference between a cheap office max chair and an expensive office max chair, but there is a huge jump in quality from an expensive office max chair to the entry-level high-end chair.

crap! they're so much cheaper wholesale w/a gov't discount! we paid a fraction of that...but then again, we also bought about 100 of them...
