    Biggest change I want to see in chairs (aside from better padding at all price points) is user-repairability or replaceable parts to order. If the chair itself is fine but the undercarriage has gone, sell a new one that I can fit. If the fabric is gone, make it easier to re-upholster

      That would definitely make buying a refurbished chair a better choice for most ppl.
      As that way you could just replace any broken/worn out parts, instead of having to buy a brand new chair.

    This is a really important video.
    It's completely understandable that most ppl will avoid purchasing a really expensive chair, which is why it's always worth searching for a refurbished or remanufactured high-end office chair first.
    However, I see so many comments ranging from ppl who think these high-end chairs are all overpriced, and others who believe that leather executive chairs are made of better materials, than these chairs.
    At the end of the day, you usually get what you pay for in this market.

    Bought the Ticova for 129€ in a sale with the 30€ coupon. Since my older chair might be the reason i started having back problems it was a welcomed deal. And you're absolutely right. Especially the lower parts of the chair are pretty "cheap" but it just feels very comfortable.

      I think they did a video about footrests a while back, or maybe they talked about a few on a different video. 🤔

      Here is my advice: visit multiple places that sell office chairs, test them and sit on them. The one that you feel most comfortable on is the one you should buy. I myself tested multiple chairs ranging in price from 100$ to 1000$ and I swear the one that pleased me and felt comfortable enough costed a little more than 200$. I still use it to this day (4+ years). No need to buy a super expensive one...
