Ergonomic workstation

[Roxana]

I am looking for a desk, armchair and computer accesories designed and buildt under ergonomic principles. Please let me know if you have any hint.

This is probably the best ergonomic keyboard in the world:

Same company also sells the Evoluent mouse:

And if you wanna get really advanced, you might want to consider getting the foot pads:

Thanks for the quick reply and good info provided, but I would like to buy the stuff at a store in Buenos Aires and I dont like the chair you listed first, I tried it before and it wasnt comfortable.

De nada. Just out of curiosity, what didn't you like about the chair? The padding?

I doubt you will be able to find good ergonomic mice and keyboards here in Argentina. I'd say your best bet would be Mercadolibre. E.g:

I bought my Aeron chair at this shop in Paraguay and Libertad (http://www.coleccion.com/) They have a good selection of imported ergo chairs and systems. I remember seeing at least one other similar shop on the same block as well. Good luck!

Oh, it looks cool, can't see myself using it though, maybe I'm too set in my ways

The neighborhood where Collecion is located has a few office supply and office furniture stores- its a good area to walk around and look, around Paraguay and Libertad, as mentioned.

You might also swing by Buenos Aires Design, the groovy indoor furniture mall under the recoleta cemetery.
