The HAG Capisco chair changed my life. If you need an even flashier version. Check out this puppy:

And it’s cheaper, too. But go somewhere and do a test sit first. Of course, I’m sitting in a trashpick from MIT now.

Good luck! The search for the perfect chair is a daunting one. All the best to your lumbar region…

It’s great for back pain, and hey – you can pretend it’s a sci-fi chair or something:

I have a cheap $100 model ($10 at a garage sale), but they make some sexy ones if you want to throw money at it. Fixed my back, keeps my posture good, and boy, can you say geeky?

I'd also like to point that you're willing to work on a wobbly table but will spend $850 on a chair. It might help if you got a new table too.
