Second this. Don’t get a gaming one, go to an office store. They build them expecting people to need to sit in them for hours.
Don’t cheap out either. Remember the most important things to never cheap out on are things that go between you and the ground. Chairs, mattresses, shoes.
Personally I found a great mesh one that doesn’t get hot in the summer and is still very supportive after 5 years
I second the mesh chair. I got this one at Staples for $100 a couple weeks ago and my ass is thanking me. I was using a fancy gaming chair before that felt like sitting on concrete.
I have a similar one. It’s my Get Shit Done chair. It’s not as adjustable as my Secret Labs Titan, but the tolerances in everything are noticeably tighter and it sort of forces me to use correct posture. I tend to sprawl all over the Titan for some reason.
Just to add. If you find one you like, don’t avoid it because it’s low cost. Brought the cheapest model at Staples and it’s still going great. Cost is often an indicator of quality, but not always.
I second this. Anyone who says “You get what you pay for” is either trying to sell you something OR they themself are a sucker. Sure, sometimes** you get what you pay for but plenty of other times you’re getting straight up ripped off because the seller realizes you’ll mistake price with quality. Don’t be anyones sucker.
