If you're near any cities, you've got some around you that sell lightly used Office furniture for like 50% off.  Just Google it for your area.\r\n\r\n*  EBay?  I've never looked, I'm sure there's something there though.\r\n\r\n*  Craigslist - there are people who buy and flip bulk/used/returned HM's, HumanScales, HON's, etc.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you're REALLY on a budget, I've also used an Alera Elusion High-Back **MultiFunction** Mesh that was solid for the money.  It's known as the \"poor man's Aeron\".  Gotta get the MultiFunction though.\r\n\r\nhttps://www.amazon.com/Alera-ALEEL42ME10B-Elusion-Mid-Back-Multifunction/dp/B003G4OJK4\r\n\r\nYou can find them for nearer to $150 at times (for the Mid-Back).  High-back is usually like $175.  It's a but loud and rickety with some loose tolerances (and plastic).  But, all the features you want are there for a legit Ergo chair.\r\n\r\nIt beats the shit out of a $200-$300 chair you'd get at Staples/Office Depot/IKEA.\r\n\r\nThe only thing it doesn't have in Fore-Aft armrest movement (they go in/out and up/down though).\r\n\r\nI still have one here, I've had it for 4 years or so - still like-new.  The Mesh back has a bit more give and the seat-pan cushion does too...but, both still fine.  \r\n\r\nThe Hydraulic Lift *just* started sinking (like once every 2 weeks, no biggie) - that's an easy fix though.  To be fair, I spent 24/7 reclined/leg elevated in it for 2 months last year (shattered leg surgery recovery) - so that probably caused that.\r\n\r\nFor reference, I'm about 6'3\" 200lbs.","subreddit_name":"LivestreamFail","author":"Coffinspired"},{"body":"Herman Miller is my number 1 choice.

Pretty easy to put together (15 minutes or so), very adjustable, and no issues with faux leather falling off because there isn’t any. \r\n\r\nNot sure your height/weight but I’m 6 feet tall and weighed 220 when I first bought the chair. I’ve lost a lot of weight since then but the chair has never stopped being comfortable for me. It actually has helped my posture a lot, as I used to always slouch and lean forward in my chairs because they were so uncomfortable for my lower back. This one has been a dream.","subreddit_name":"buildapc","author":"rush2ryme"},{"body":"As someone who owns an office furniture store, I have tons of options.

I did a lot of research before buying this chair. \r\n\r\nSuper adjustable like a Hermal Miller, although the quality of the materials and fit and finish won't be nearly as high. The plastics all feel like pretty good industrial plastics, however.\r\n\r\nSure it's not made for flight simming, but it's adjustable enough to work for most any task. Only problem is having a wheeled chair and using pedals, which can be a task.","subreddit_name":"flightsim","author":"mikefromearth"},{"body":"I can't attest to a racing setup but if your thinking about getting a office racing chair I would advise against it. They are nice chairs but for the price you can get something much better for your back, especially if you have long gaming sessions.  \r\n\r\nA DIY car bucket seat setup would be really cool, I love the seats in my car.  \r\n\r\nThough being a little more realistic Alera makes a nice adjustable office chair that is comfortable as well as on the lower price range.
