What’s your top BIFL purchase, that might not in itself has been all to frugal, but long term, will be?
After having 5-6 different office chairs over the last 10 years, none of which I liked. I went and bought a Herman Miller Aeron chair. It’s ridiculously expensive, but I’m so pleased with it and hope to keep it for well over 15-20 years. If that actually succeed, I will have spent less money one chairs than if I hadn’t bought it.
What similar items (cheap or expensive) do you feel the same about?
Definitely one of the advantages of mine, over the crap I’ve tried before.
How big? I’m 6’3”, 300+ lbs, and it is so nice. Arron comes in three sizes and I do have the largest, but it fits, with room to spare.
I usually have the worst problems with posture, because office chairs do not adjust high enough to match my legs, but this does! I don’t have a headrest and don’t know if they make them, but I don’t even notice that since I can now sit upright!
