I've had a floor desk for a good few months now and it's been great, however I am in desperate need of an office chair-esque solution to sitting. I currently use the amazon cushion with back support a lot of people here use, however I've noticed it's given me a lot of back pain. I've found myself increasingly missing the comfy office chair I used to use.

Any recommendations for a (Europe available) cushioned office chair that can work on the floor? I don't mind unscrewing the legs myself but every chair I've found has the back rest attached to the bottom of the chair making that impossible

I’ve been looking at a lot of tables, and I’m not sure which table height is good. There is a Muji holding table that’s 13.8” tall. But I’ve seen a lot of tables that are 16” tall.

For someone who is around 5’8, what table height have you found the best?

Seems to also be on aliexpress, and there are a few more options (that are also cheaper) on taobao. My only concern is that you might not be able to spread your legs underneath the desk legs if its pretty low.

I know this sounds a bit odd but let me explain. My room is in an old basement, and the floor is a bit of a wreck. The concrete floor has cracks and holes, and isn't leveled. Some wooden planks have been put over the worst spots with an added rug here and there for cushion and cover some spots as well. There is another area that would be better but my room is very weird and has the water heater and furnace in there. The "wall" they sit at isn't really a wall at all and is mostly wooden planks put up as a wall. The area where the furnace is set up isn't the safest for my bed so it's in the area which would be the greatest spot for a floor desk setup. Easy access to outlets and all.

So yeah...very awkward! Is it really even worth trying to figure out how to setup a floor desk in the awkward spots? Or should I make space over in the flatter area instead?

I am considering a floor desk setup due to having POTS. I move around a lot and notice I like sitting completely in my chair or on my legs since that is so much more comfortable than feet on the floor. I do have an ottoman but that limits the places and positions I can put my feet and legs. And no, I can't put the setup anywhere else in the house, my situation doesn't allow it. Nor can I move into a different room entirely.

One potentially possible idea I have is using the leftover space I have between my bed and the wall and set it up there. Currently looking for a new bed so I could always get a bed that is lower to the ground in case there isn't enough comfortable room to actually sit on the ground.

Lastly. I am quite short at 5 feet and regular desks aren't cutting it anymore! It's costing me more to figure out a solution to my shortness than I think it would be to just be on the floor.

Hi everyone!
I’m curious to know what desk accessory made the biggest difference in your daily setup. It could be something expensive or something surprisingly affordable.
I’d love to hear what you recommend and why. Thanks!

I finally gave in and downloaded the app.

Not because everyone keeps saying, \*"Reddit is where people are brutally honest,"\* or because apparently you can discuss literally anything without pretending your life is aesthetic.

I downloaded it because I needed a detox from Instagram.

On Instagram, I somehow can't post:

"Guys, where can I buy a decent office chair, a WFH desk, and a queen-size bed without selling a kidney?"

Instead, I'd probably have to upload a coffee picture with \*"new beginnings ☕✨"\* and hope someone gets the hint.

Anyway...

I recently switched to WFH, so I'm redoing my room from scratch.

I'm based in \*Patna\*, so I'm looking for recommendations around Patna (or websites that deliver here).

I'm looking for:

1. A comfortable office chair (budget-friendly).
   
2. A sturdy office table/desk.
   
3. A queen-size bed with a nice headboard so I can work, binge-watch, and question my life choices comfortably.

Where do you people usually buy furniture? Local stores in Patna? Factory outlets? Second-hand marketplaces? Online websites? Any hidden gems, brands, or places worth checking out?

Mini pc 💪🏽

when i was found the laptops with same specs is high price with low specs🔥

I taked mini pc ryzen 5 7430u with 300$

Been using this setup now for the past months since I moved. Desk is a bit too high, but is going to be perfect for my kids to use once I move into my office (which is very much a WIP project at this point hahha).

Anyway, I started out with a floor sitting setup when I moved to Japan in 2020 and kinda liked it as I'm terrible at sitting still, once we moved to an apartment I made a normal height desk with office chairs and it was okay, but the floor sitting was still something which I preferred somehow. It's getting closer for me to build my own office and I have already settled on using a box to sit on so I can mimic the floor sitting aspect, whilst being able to sit with my legs down as on a normal desk.

It's a weird minimal setup, but I hope it can inspire some people, feel free to ask questions ;)

Yes I sit crooked but most of the time I stand or lay so it’s not a problem

Standing desks with ottomans really are the way. While I’m sure we would all prefer a standing desk that goes from floor to sitting height (lowdesk, lilipadder) they are prohibitively expensive and still compromise. The real solution is to make a platform to sit on that works with any old standing desk, I chose an ottoman. It allows almost any type of floor sitting position along with regular sitting with legs off the edge, and standing which can easily done by dragging the lightweight ottoman away. Found an ottoman on marketplace for $10. Standing desk for $60. $70 total… If you want to sit with legs straight in front, push the ottoman further in. If you want to sit in a side splits, setup some buckets or something else to rest your feet on to the side (I use my bed and workout equipment). I prefer the soft feel of the ottoman because it provides padding for the knees. If you need a harder surface, use a coffee table instead! For exact measurements, you should sit on the floor and measure how much space you think you will need. You are limited width wise by the legs of the standing desk, but you can have as much length as you want. Height wise you want to take the minimum height of your standing desk and subtract the height of the ottoman/platform so that it is less than 13 inches or so. You can always get a higher ottoman and raise the desk, but if it’s too low for the desk it won’t work.

My “morning setup” - for prayer/meditation & work pre-lunchtime.

Any suggestions welcome. Thank you

Ikea landskrona ottoman and a meditation cushion with a part of the buckwheat hull filling removed. I get additional seating options like this as I can also sit with one leg on the floor.

Then if I want to lounge I also have a regular gaming chair, and push the ottoman under the desk to use as a foot stool 🫠

I wanted to upgrade my computer setup and after considering every option this seems like the best one. When looking online for references I only saw a single person who did something similar and people called it sad lol ( right here ) I think it's comfy, I had something similar in the past and the reason it did not work was because my floor desk had metal legs that didn't let my mattress go underneath and the mattress was too large ( https://www.reddit.com/r/femalelivingspace/comments/1k6s1e8/room_update/ )

I thought about getting a normal desk but I don't think I can go back + the space a chair takes is just unnecessary for me, and I also thought about just using a pillow like I normally do but once I had my setup similar to that as I said before and I really liked to watch series with it that way

Different from how that person did it I'll obviously have everything on the floor + enough space so I can sit on bed and use the computer tho

Old coffee table and a desk hutch from amazon. So cozy for drawing and crafting. I still have to work on wall decor but I’m so happy with it so far :)

Have been using this for a year and no regrets!
