Who gets it? Working from home means I’m glued to my chair 11+ hours a day—cranking out work plans and sitting with my kiddo for homework. At first, my back just felt a little sore, but soon it hurt so bad I couldn’t roll over at night. I covered my back with pain patches until it was full of marks, and massages only helped for a day before the pain came back. I blindly bought 2 regular computer chairs before: one was as hard as a stone, making my butt numb in 30 minutes; the other was so soft it collapsed, leaving my back totally unsupported—I even had to hold the table to stand up when picking up an eraser for my kid… Then I found this computer chair for back pain. Now, after sitting all day, my back doesn’t ache anymore! Even my mom kept asking, “Where did you buy this computer chair for back pain? Get one for your dad too!”
First, let’s talk about the lumbar pillow—the best part! This computer chair for back pain’s lumbar pillow isn’t a stiff, fixed lump. It has 5 height settings and can push forward 2cm. When I sit straight to write plans, I set it to the middle; when I lean back a little to help my kid with homework, I push it forward. It fits perfectly into the curve of my lower back, like someone gently supporting me from behind. My tight back instantly relaxes. Before, with regular chairs, I had to stand up and rub my back every hour. Now, with this computer chair for back pain, I can work overtime editing PPTs until 9 PM and stand up without holding my back!
Next, the mesh material! It’s made of high-elastic nylon mesh—thick and sturdy, not the flimsy kind that stretches out when you pull it. My kid loves climbing on it and jumping, sometimes even standing on it to reach books on the shelf. I’ve used it for almost 5 months, and the mesh hasn’t sagged at all; it still feels firm when I sit. The best part? No sweaty discomfort in summer! My old fabric chair stuck to my thighs once the temperature hit 30°C—I’d have to yank my pants when standing up, so embarrassing. But this computer chair for back pain’s mesh is super breathable. Even sitting for an afternoon, my butt and back stay cool and dry. My husband even fights me for it!
The armrests are so thoughtful too! This computer chair for back pain’s armrests adjust up and down, and can also tilt forward and back. When I type, I lower them so my arms don’t have to hover—my shoulders feel relaxed. When I read picture books with my kid, I tilt them forward so my arms can rest comfortably, no more hanging in the air. Before, with chairs without armrests, my shoulders would ache so bad I couldn’t lift them after typing for a while. Now, with this one, I haven’t had a stiff shoulder day!
Small details are also great! The wheels are silent. When I need to move the chair to grab files late at night, it doesn’t make a sound—no waking up the kid. The seat is curved and a little wider than regular chairs. I sometimes cross my legs (don’t judge, it’s so comfy!) and it’s not cramped. You can also adjust the backrest angle: I lean it back a little for a noon nap, no more hunching over the desk. I wake up with no stiff neck!
It’s only 300+ yuan—way cheaper than the thousand-yuan chairs at the office! I recommended it to a mom colleague, and she texted me two weeks later: “Now I don’t have to stand up every 10 minutes while helping my kid with homework. This computer chair for back pain is amazing!”
💡Tips for sisters buying a computer chair for back pain—don’t make my old mistakes!
- Never buy one with a fixed lumbar pillow! No matter how good it claims to be, a fixed pillow can’t fit different sitting postures. I wasted money on one and threw it away after a month.
- Choose thick mesh! Thin mesh sags in half a year—your back still has no support. Pull the mesh when buying; it should be elastic and not easy to stretch.
- If you weigh over 75kg, check the frame! Pick one with thick steel tubes to avoid wobbling. My dad is 90kg, and he said this chair is way sturdier than his old one.
- Prioritize 30-day trial! Many stores let you return it if it’s not right. I tested mine for a week before keeping it—no wasting money.
Now this computer chair for back pain is the most popular in my house: I use it for work, my husband for gaming, and my kid even uses it as a “little sofa.” I used to want to quit my job because of back pain, but now I can work comfortably!
