Does anyone have links to good sites discussing ideal computer ergonomics? I sit in a computer chair 12 hours a day working, and am starting to suffer from wrist/back strain. I want to start minimizing this as much as i can.

Anyone try the Raynor Ergohuman? It looks great and is priced reasonably, but I can't try one locally. The leather one is less than a base steelcase leap for me, and I need leather cause I have a cat. Leather addon for the Leap is another $500.

How difficult would it be to reupholster a leap if I bought one?

Local steelcase retailer near me has stock models to let customers test drive for a few days before ordering Also have Brisa leather options for only another $50 above normal BTO prices of cloth, so probably gonna go with that. Still a bit torn between leap and think, as both were very comfy.

On the same topic of computer ergonomics, does anyone have any recommendations for products to reduce wrist pain from typing / mousing?

Keyboard layouts have never really made a difference in comfort for me, and at work I just use a Leopold mechanical. The only thing I've read on keyboards which intrigues me is variable weighted keys (keys which are further from centre take less force to engage), such as the Topre RealForce series. Unfortunately, I refuse to spend $300 on a keyboard. I live in halifax =/ Not a lot here, looked around.

Any thoughts on the Amia? I live in Canada, so used ergonomic chairs are super hard to find. I found this and talked him down to $500 CDN. Roughly $400ish american dollars. http://www.kijiji.ca/v-chair-recliner/city-of-halifax/black-leather-steelcase-amia-office-chair/1039166617

PleasureKevin posted:i've reached out to a few places and so far they say the chair is exclusive to office depot in north america, even though there's no office depots outside the USA. still waiting to hear from Grand & Toy, which doesn't list it on their site but could theoretically get it since their parent company is OD. Wait, why don't you just look for a used steelcase or something near you?

Fauxtool posted:how do you guys feel about the DX Racer brand of chairs? Beyond the "gamer" price markup they seem like well built chairs with a lot of the features and aesthetics people want. I have been using mine for 8+ hours a day for the last 2 years with no real issues. They aren't adjustable, headrests are ergonomically a bad idea, and they are poorly made. Don't get one.
