    I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around the idea that it's worthwhile to sell chairs with a 150lb rating. If a chair can barely support my skinny ass it shouldn't be on the market.

    This is my first chair, it turned 3 years old in March, its been broken but still usable for a while. it was also bought from walmart for $100. So I guess it was just time. I've been putting off replacing it, I guess now I have no choice.

    A lot of stuff shouldn't be on the market.

    I understand that a person's healthy weight varies with height, but I would think if you're selling a chair to be sold, you would design it to be rated for at least the 90th percentile of adults, just for the sake of maximizing your potential market. Unless the chair is small for use by children, selling something with that low a rating doesn't make sense to me.

    Lower rating = lower cost and that allows them to sell it for the low end market while keeping some of their extra features

    Wouldn't the money spent on gas put you in the negatives, though?
