Vent: That $400 standing desk I bought really helped... until it didn't

I got this fancy electric standing desk 8 months ago thinking it'd fix my back pain from freelancing. Cost me $400 and now the motor just hums and won't move up or down. Has anyone else had a big purchase that was supposed to reduce your stress but ended up just burning you out more?

Maybe just unplug it and plug it back in before declaring bankruptcy.

tbh i dont get why everyone's acting like this is some huge life or death thing. yeah computers crash sometimes, it sucks, but bankruptcy? come on. thats like burning your house down because you stubbed your toe. i feel like half the people posting here just want to make a simple fix sound way more dramatic than it actually is. maybe just try the basic stuff first and see if it helps before you start talking about major financial moves lol.

Cracked up at "burning your house down because you stubbed your toe"... that's basically me when my wifi drops for five seconds and I start looking at backup generators online...
