I did a lot of research on 'gaming' chairs and finally convinced myself to just get a nice office chair instead.
I ended up with this and it's REALLY nice/comfortable: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Y8BXBX8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
​
I was a little apprehensive about it having a mesh seat since I often sit on my legs/feet, but this mesh is awesome and super comfortable no matter how I'm sitting.
Also it works great on hardwood floors, the wheels are super nice quality and smooth (doesn't leave any marks at all), but still stiff enough that you won't roll away from your desk if you put your feet up/lean back.
Bonus is that it has flip-up arms, which means you can slide it under desks really easy when not using it.
I bought an Amazon Basic chair and I'm very satisfied with it. It's not a racing chair and has no gaming flair, so no increased fps, but it's really comfortable and affordable.
The Herman Miller Aeron is the gold standard.
However, I have a Alera Elusion from Amazon. It's got all the adjustability of a much more expensive chair; adjustable Seat pan, adjustable back, the seat pan angle and back reset angle are individually adjustable etc.
​
It is no Aeron but if you are on a budget, this is the best I have found.
For 65$, you can't go wrong with the amazon basic mesh back.. something something office chair.

I liked mine so much, I bought one for my mom. After over a year, I've yet to have an issue with it.
I got Alera elusion high back, very comfortable chair
I’ve used it for about 8 months now and it’s holding up nice. My brother got the same model after trying out mine. Biggest complaint I have is that it creaks when you roll around while sitting but not bad.

I misremembered and looking at my order it was actually $170 when I bought it, but only $154 now. My only complaint is the mesh back has loosened a little bit, but it's still pretty comfortable.
The hell is a racing chair? Don't buy into that nonsense, they're overhyped underperforming garbage. I got this chair for around $289 and it's amazing. Gabrylly office chair
Ah the headrest I purchased separately on Amazon. Its this one (H3 version for the classic Aeron model) https://smile.amazon.com/Engineered-Now-Headrest-Herman-Classic/dp/B005L9ATK6/ref=sr\_1\_5?dchild=1&keywords=herman%2Bmiller%2Bheron%2Bheadrest&qid=1624152771&sr=8-5&th=1

Bought second hand off of kijiji 💀💀💀
It's a decent chair, easy to clean/move, not adjustable, but 👍
I searched hard for a chair that was within my budget and looked great, and this is the best one that I could find.

My wife and I just bought these (I bought the slightly taller stool model) and they're remarkably quiet. Our old chairs were very squeaky -- these are downright stealthy.

Plus they're available in fun colors.
I watched the GN video then ended up buying this: Gabrylly Ergonomic Mesh Office Chair, High Back Desk Chair
I've been using mostly a dining room chair...so yeah most anything is going to be better. I was looking for something that was ok with wood floors an that had arms that could retract (so it'll fit under a desk easier).
I wasn't sure I'd like the mesh seat, but so far so good (I sit on my legs/feet a lot). The overall chair build quality seems very high and very sturdy. Especially the wheels which are super smooth on my wood floors.
Comfort was better than expected, I'm digging the adjustable headrest (my first time using a high back office chair). my only complaint is the armrests don't swivel, but it's super minor thing.
The second option is around 200 USD. I did find a much cheaper alternative, although it doesn't seem to have as much quality.

Amazon link I bought this chair. It has most of the ergonomics of an aeron but is $200. I have one at home and got work to buy me one. I like it quite a lot. You can also buy a headrest that screws on.
The Lorell Mesh Headrest has good reviews on Amazon. The Steelcase Leap v2 has a flat back, so you'll have to screw the headrest directly into the back of the chair.
Esta silla de Amazon Basics es la mejor silla que he tenido para el trabajo. A mi comúnmente me duele la espalda por estar sentado, y esta es en la que más tiempo aguanto sin problemas.
As everyone else has said, I definitely wouldn't recommend a gaming chair as their too expensive and not comfortable. I actually wouldn't recommend many "gamer" branded things in general, but I digress.
I would recommend an ergonomic office chair, and look for one that allows you to sit straight up. My chair (linked at bottom) has a lot of adjustable levers and allows me to adjust the back piece forward enough where I am supported when gaming/coding. It varies per person but I have a tendency to lean over and have bad posture at the desk, so having a great office chair is really important and will save you in the long run from posture problems.
Link to my chair on Amazon. I would recommend something similar to this.
I can't seem to find the exact model, but it's pretty similar to this one.
I highly recommend it if you spend a lot of time in front of the computer.
I have this one I think it made the chair more comfortable, support the same.
Need new desk chair. Old one (Maxnomic from 2015) has totally busted cushions and the seat plate leans to the side (have tried to re-tighten screws, no luck) which is adding a lot of unwanted stress to my hips and lower back.
Any recommendations? I wanted to get something with mesh instead of foam cushioning, was looking at the Gabrylly chair. Or should I just pay the premium and grab a Cosm or Aeron?
I bought this when I starting working from home full time. I've spent a literal couple thousand hours using it daily so far. It still feels and looks like new.
I really REALLY like it.

I bought this about 1.5 years ago (although it was only £160 then!)
https://www.amazon.co.uk/SIHOO-Ergonomics-Adjustable-Headrests-Computer/dp/B07GNDDNMW
I can sit on it for 8+ hours a day easily. Never ever had any back problems and it's absolutely comfy.
Used Herman Miller Chairs, Craigslist.
Amazon option it's a little less costly, nice chairs, we have 2, assembly is about 30 mins, They included in a separate order a few weeks later for free the "Roller blade" wheels on mine, and they are great. $55 off coupon on there right now.

4.4/5 with 9300+ reviews.
If you want nice kheer, you have to put kesar, dry nuts and sugar in good quantity:
I use this one at home and really love it. You did not mention your budget. If you want comfort like this at 3000, not gonna happen. You can hit the local stores to see if something suites you.
I have a $500 budget for a new chair. All my co workers at getting Titan Evo chairs. I'm not a fan, I don't think they are very comfortable and I don't like the headrest pillow much either. I want a fabric chair with a cushion bottom, not mesh, and a decent headrest that tilts/rocks. I can find a few on Amazon but nothing name brand and I'd rather spend $300-$400 on a name brand than $200 on a knock off. This one does have 9700 reviews but never heard of SIHOO (or Giantex clone).
My husband and both work 100% remote and use this chair. It’s very comfortable, ergonomic and not too pricey. Gabrylly Ergonomic Mesh Office... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07Y8BXBX8?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
A wonderful start. You'll enjoy more leg room for sure. And can't imagine a better choice in chairs. I've had my own Aeron for 14 years. Just replaced the cylinder last month lol. Genuine life chair. Like the great white shark? ... you know the rest.
BTW: personally, this investment changed my Aeron game.
Have fun...

Presa su Amazon, dopo averne rimandate indietro più di un paio che non facevano per me (176cm per 80 kg).
Quella che ho infine tenuto è della Sihoo (link), pagata poco più di 200 euro (nel cercartela ho visto che ora la vendono a un po' di più, 270 euro ma con coupon che ne toglie 25).
I’ve had this for about three years:
I sit in it for extended periods of time and never had a problem. Very comfortable.
