Herman Miller Setu Review: The Easy Ergonomic Chair

What are you doing right now? Are you sitting down? What do you think about the chair you are in? Is it stylish, supportive? Have you ever really thought about it before? I didn't until a couple of years ago when I realized I was doing myself a disservice by sitting in the chair equivalent of a backache. "Ergonomic stuff is for the weak and elderly," being the type of perception I used to have. I eventually realized that sitting in a "nice" chair helped comfort and productivity a lot, but it wasn't easy finding the right seat. Most "ergonomic" items these days are gimmicks, and finding something specially designed for your comfort and health is hard. Well here is one item you don't have to stress-out about.

Here is my personal review of the new Herman Miller Setu task and desk chair. The brand well know for the universally popular Aeron desk chair has a few other products you should know about. One of them is right for you. In short, in the Herman Miller line of chairs, the Setu is made for simplicity and ease of use. No complex or frustrating levers and micro adjustments. The chair is designed to naturally fit to you, without having to adjust it. An added bonus is that multiple people can enjoy the same seat (no, not at the same time), without having to disturb your unique ergonomic settings.

Hela Glider Mouse

Filed under: Gadgets

The new Glider Mouse from Hela is supposed to be a revolutionary development in the design of ergonomic mice. Unlike more traditional mice, the Glider is not a small gadget that rests to one side of your computer, but a fairly large pad that sits in front of the keyboard. It has wrist-resting surfaces on both sides, offering support during both mouse and keyboard work, and a central mouse pad with a "glider" and several programmable shortcut buttons besides the standard ones and a scroll wheel. Price: £149 ($288).

Ergonomic Pet Bowls

For pet owners who are concerned that eating out of a ground-level bowl may be putting a crimp in your pup's lifestyle (or neck), take a look at the ergonomic Ultra Bowl Boosters from WetNoZ. Designed to hold their sleek, dual-purpose bowls, which act both as dishes and as scoops for dry food, the boosters come in two sizes (Big Pooch and Lil Pup) and raise bowls from 6-12 inches off the ground.

I have to say that I have never noticed a cat or dog - these bowls are uni-species - appearing to experience discomfort while eating, so buying these will not increase your pet's happiness as much as simply giving them more food would. If you have a modern home, the stainless steel and aluminum boosters will look fantastic, though, and definitely more stylish than a round, plastic bowl on the floor. Prices are $55 for large, $45 for small. Bowls sold separately.
