If you have an algorithm similar to mine in the world of vertical video, there's a decent chance you've come across the criss-cross chair epidemic already. Tons of influencers are touting the benefits of a new type of chair that allows you to sit cross-legged at your desk, and that caught my attention because I'm a frequent leg crosser myself.
Curious about the potential benefits of a chair like this, I decided to pick one up. Admittedly, I prefer this position when I'm on the couch and not at my desk, but I imagined that there was potential to blend the two seating options. There are a million of these things on Amazon, and they all have similar materials and pricing. To ensure my experience was representative of the uncertainty you can get with online shopping, I eeny-meeny-miny-moed one of the top-rated dupes that best resembled the TikTok-famous chair. The one I got happened to have almost 5,000 reviews, the majority of which were five stars.
