Is there a specific chair I need to use for writing hobby?

I just bought the writing desk for the writing hobby. I have been trying to place a chair with the desk all morning. I have tried dining chairs both with arms and without. Is there a specific chair that I need to buy?

  • I had this problem years ago and I thought they fixed it but here is the work around that worked for me.  Sometimes you’ll get a placement error usually caused by something on the wall or on the other side of the wall or by plants.  Theydon’t look like they are causing a blocking problem but the somehow interfere.  This can be solved by placing the desk in a largish empty spot and then placing the chair. Then you can click on the desk and move the desk and chair as a unit to wherever you want it.

  • @BillieFan Dining chairs without arms should work.
    Can you please share a picture? What message do you get when you tap on the desk?

    @Halt1776 Hi, the chair in your picture seems ok. Please explain with more details if you’re having an issue with the chair or writing hobby.

    Any dining room chair worked for me. When you put it up against the desk the chair was highlighted red so I thought you couldn’t put the chair there. I just placed it there anyway and it worked! Hope that works for you too!
