Going against the grain on chair upgrades for drafters

Most people in my studio say a basic stool is fine for long hours at the board. I invested in a high-quality ergonomic chair and my neck and back pain has nearly vanished. Have you considered how your seating affects your drafting endurance?

Your vanished pain mirrors my experience after finally upgrading my office chair last year.

Was it one of those fancy chairs that costs as much as a car payment? Felt silly spending that much on a chair but my back shut up real fast, lol. Guess sometimes you just have to buy the pain away.

But what if that's just a temporary fix? Threw a ton of money at a fancy mattress once. Felt great for a few months. Then the same old ache came back. Could have just been a cheaper foam topper and some consistent stretching. Feels like those companies sell you a solution that might not last.
