That is a misconception! Star Trek is, in fact, a show about the weirdest chairs you’ve ever seen.

A screencap from Star Trek: Deep Space 9, depicting Constable Odo walking in front of a desk with spindly bulbous chairs.

A screencap from Star Trek: The Original Series, depicting Spock sitting on an orange chair which resembles a folded ribbon.

A screencap from Star Trek: Discovery, depicting Saru sitting on a white couch that resembles a lot of layers of white cushions, near white chairs which look somehow wrinkled.

    This TNG Engineering chair came with the toy version of the warp core. I have never been able to get any action figure to sit in it without tape, glue, or something to support it.

      1. These movable chairs are not safe on a starship which undergoes various dangerous maneuvers
      2. They seem to be designed like bus stop chairs i.e. they encourage you to NOT sit there for long periods.
      3. They were probably nicked from the canteen for quick props
