I finally bought a proper salon chair for my home studio

After using a cheap office chair for a year, I spent about $800 on a real hydraulic styling chair. My back was killing me after every cut, and I was constantly adjusting the client's height with pillows. The new chair has a smooth pump and swivels perfectly. Has anyone else made a big buy for their setup that was totally worth it?

Hydraulic chairs are the best for that.

Wasn't there some big recall on a bunch of hydraulic chairs a while back? I swear I read something about them failing and dropping people on the floor (which sounds pretty funny, unless it's you). @stone.margaret, you've got me worried about mine now. I guess they're still the easiest way to adjust things, even if the mechanism can be a weak spot. Maybe the trick is just not to buy the cheapest one you can find.
