Spoon Chair by Kartell
November 30, 2007 - By Bobby Solomon - Category: Design
I’ve been looking on and off for a new chair for the last 6 months, and I’m starting to realize that you can’t get a comfortable or cool looking chair for under $300. Writing that just now, I feel like I should know something like this, but I suppose I was holding on to a shred of hope that I could find a great deal.
Well I was browsing through some random catalog my boss received and I stopped immediately when I came across the Spoon Chair by Kartell. It has a similar feel to a regular office chair, but it’s got some pretty sexy curves, and I love the bold colors that it comes in. It also happens to be almost $650, which is about triple the amount I was thinking of spending. But if I were to spend a bucket of cash on a chair, it would probably be this one.
If anyone has any good tips on hot/comfy chairs that aren’t a super expensive, please send them my way!

Hey, I too was looking for a good chair a little while back and I found a great deal at staples of all places. I <3 this chair, really comfy, able to work in it for hours , well-built, adjustable, reclines, and like $80!

Don’t know if they sell it in your area though. Good luck finding a chair ^_^
personally, I think the best chairs out there are still those designed by the late charles and ray eames. Though not exactly the cheapest out there, you can sometimes find them in yer neighborhood hole-in-the-wall antique or thrift store. And yeah… like “E to the P” said, craigslist and ebay are great places to start. Even used, these things are solid, beautiful, and designed to last a lifetime.
