Foot wear. Don't go cheap. Go quality.
Tires.
And a bread machine. Trust me you go cheap you won't use it for long. It will either break or produce crap for bread.
Speakers for your home theater. Cheap sucks. Unless you are so hard of hearing that everything sounds like crap.
Computer chair. Trust me forget the gamer chair, go for a good office chair. Your back and your butt will thank you.
Furniture. Unless you like buying couches and chairs and tables. Get quality don't go cheap.
Always heard it said that you shouldn't cheap out on anything that goes under you. Among the best bits of advice I've been given.
100% this. Office chair companies have been making chairs that people can sit in doing deskwork without issue for literal decades. They are absolute experts in the field. Put some LED strands on a Herman Miller if you desperately need to feel like an elite gamer cool dude. It'll be the same price as the bullshit racer chair but your ass will be so much more comfortable.
Bruh the prices of a gamerx chair and a HM are not in the same universe. I agree with your sentiment though lol
I suppose I was thinking more about some of the DXracer and SecretLabs which are deffo in the same realm price wise as the lower end of HM, rather then the ol' Walmart special.
Also, while doublechecking that- lmao
Damn what an ugly $1k chair lmao
Yeah and expensive doesnβt necessarily mean quality either.
So very true.
I have to say I picked up a free chair that was being tossed from a college campus (the computer lab was replacing the chairs) and it's pretty damn nice. Much more comfortable than my more expensive one.
