Im sitting here studying, and it goes down a little notch, little by little. Jesus, it's annoying. Does it mean I need to lose weight or something. Arent these chairs supposed to hold up to 300lbs?

Sounds like there is an air leak. Time for a new chair.

I have had a couple that have worn out.

LOL, Im in the gym everyday.



I bought this chair when there was a hot deal at Office Max for $49.99. I wanted a new leather computer chair and I figured I go with this. It's really a POS, and I do want another one, but I cant afford it right now. Damn it. it's soo annoying, Im sitting here getting in my study mode and *notch*, it goes down an inch. Then 20 minutes later, another inch. WTF. Stupid a$$ ikea computer desk for $20. I should have known better. It was probably $20 because it comes up to my damn neck when im sitting at it. Not really, but it does seema bit high, and it doesnt complment my lowering chair.

Krunky is this your office chair ?;)

Maybe some coworker has been messing with it ;)

I'd destroy any coworker who stepped foot in my house and sat in my computer chair. :D

My computer chair at work is nice. Although it's not leather, it doesnt keep shifting down on me. I can sit there relaxed without the chair lowering on me.

I bought a cheap office chair a couple years ago for $40 and it was doing the same thing after a year.

I then bought a better one for $100 and so far after a year I haven't noticed the problem.

Even our computer chair needs a break sometimes. Would it kill you to go for a walk outside once in a while?

Yea, maybe it's a cheap chair thing. I deserve it I guess. I wanted a nice leather chair and instead I bought this piece of crap for $50. Life's lessons learned everyday.
