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 got this chair a june 6, 2020, and it's held up great and is generally quite comfortable. Definitely well built with a lot of adjustment, recline, headrest, and a wide seat base. The only problem is I don't have much asscheek and the padding doesn't cut it for me anymore so i had to get another seat cushion to put on it.

If you don't like mesh then there's that potential factor becoming an issue, but i prefer it because i can stay cool.

If the padding was just an inch thicker with a 1" taller back i would have actually preferred it to a herman Miller. I'm 6'1" 200lbs.

It’s pretty solid. I got it on a auction site for $40, so definitely a steal on $330. I wish the seat part was more cushy, why I need the extra support pad there

For people who dislike Herman Miller chairs, I recommend this Duramont chair with adjustable everything. Herman Miller chairs are too low-backed for me, and I hate the arm rests - the Duramont shape is a better fit for my body and took very few adjustments to get right.

Duramont with adjustable everything. I've long used some of the cheaper suggestions on Amazon but was getting really sore after sitting in them for longer periods of time during WFH, probably in large part due to bad posture - but they generally have seats that lose their bounce after several hours of continuous use, and minimal back support.

The high back on the Duramont means you get an actually usable neck rest and much better back support. The seat is comfortable for 12+ hours. Adjustable arms are non-negotiable, IMO, and the shape of these armrests has a nice cradle for you to rest on. I like this chair so much I replaced all our desk chairs with it after a few weeks of use.

I have used most Herman Miller chairs and this one knocks them out of the park at a fraction of the price, imo - but I low-key hate Herman Millers and literally prefer hard wood chairs. For me, Herman Millers are far too low backed for day-long use in front of a desk, and the armrests are incomprehensibly shaped. I'd look through some catalogs and try to identify what you've like in the office in the past - once I realized I never had a nice high-backed chair and figured out my issues with the Herman Millers, it was an easy to find a chair with the features I wanted!

This one but there’s plenty of variations on this style on Amazon. Love it.

I’m pretty sure it’s this one

I ordered it a few months back and returned it literally the next day, very uncomfortable and should cost around 50$ instead of 300$

I needed a chair last march as well and ended up with this this.

There are several other comparable chairs on amazon in addition to that one as well.

I just bought that one. Hope it's good.

The other one I was looking at is the Duramont chair. It has the cushioned seat and adjustable lumbar, but I actually didn't want the cushioned seat (reviews say it's hard and firm, so might not be ideal for sitting on legs), so I went with the Gabrylly.

Hey there, did you end up going with one of these?

I've been considering the NOUHAUS Ergo3D, WordPro Quantum, and a Duramont chair on Amazon.

5'10" 150lbs. Lumbar support is important.

https://www.amazon.com/Duramont-Ergonomic-Adjustable-Support-Rollerblade/dp/B0797HZ8W1/ref=pd_bap_m_rp_19?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B0797HZ8W1&pd_rd_r=8e0b5a9e-0247-4ca1-9da1-fe9697a344b6&pd_rd_w=0KBQh&pd_rd_wg=030dE&pf_rd_p=4ca39...

I do. I am currently on the office depot one.

When i got the chair for christmas, I was about 320 or so.

Over the summer, I have dumped soda and started eating healthier and making my own cooked meals, and I am now under 295. HOWEVER, the damage to this chair's ass cushion has been done lol...

I am currently looking at THIS model of chair and it looks VERY similar to the Aeron.

I have found several Aeron chairs in my area, however, everyone seems to be selling them for $300 or more and almost all of them being sold are over 8 and 10 years old, with one of them being over 12 years old he says...I cant justify spending that much on a chair that has been in someone's possession than my relationship...

However, Being that I live so close to Grand Rapids and Holland, MI, there are Haworth and Steelcase 'outlet' stores right where the factories are that I didnt even think of checking out...I kinda wanna go there or ask around but have yet to find anyone who has been to these stores or have had any luck either.

Ultimately, I dont think I am going to go with a gaming chair (was considering the EWin or Secret Lab Titan) because I feel like ill get more comfortable seating out of an Aeron or Gesture or clone of such...

I didn't want a "gaming chair" (I don't really like the aesthetic of them), and I needed something to support my (at the time), shall we say "impressive physique"

Now I've lost a fair lot of weight, but it's good to know that this chair will last me awhile as long as I keep up with maintaining/dropping weight.

It's called Duramont. I got it from Amazon

Here is my advice from attempting to find a good chair. For reference I am 6 foot 1 and weigh 175 pounds.

• Avoid gaming-style chairs. They are terribly made for ergonomics and will do more damage to the body. They also have poor breath ability.
• Avoid leather executive-style chairs. In the $300 range the leather is unlikely to be of high quality and will tear off the chair in a years worth of use. Additionally, it will get super sweaty with long sessions.
• Avoid no-name Chinese chairs off of amazon such as these:
  • https://www.amazon.com/Duramont-Ergonomic-Adjustable-Support-Rollerblade/dp/B0797HZ8W1/ref=sr_1_20?dchild=1&keywords=ergonomic+chairs&qid=1622166989&sr=8-20
  • https://www.amazon.com/Gabrylly-Ergonomic-Mesh-Office-Chair/dp/B07Y8BXBX8/ref=sr_1_7?dchild=1&keywords=ergonomic+chairs&qid=1622166989&sr=8-7
  • You can find these exact chairs or similar chairs using low quality parts under the names of several different weirdly-named companies. I tried three random ones and they all had cushions or parts that failed within a year of use.

I would highly recommend saving up more money for a high quality chair with a good warranty, rather than playing the frustrating cheap chair roulette for years as I did. Also, I highly recommend going to an office store or warehouse to try out some chairs before buying anything. I ended up with a customized $650 OfficeMaster OM5XT from officechairsusa.com which I am very happy with, although its definitely not for everyone. I also stole a Herman Miller from my old office for $200, but I found it uncomfortably tiny for my larger frame.

$30 over budget, but unless your proportions are really that different; this is the best chair under $600 I've seen.

I've heard nothing but good things about:

Autonomous ErgoChair 2

AKIR chair

Duramont Ergonomic Chair

Could you point me to the OD coupon? Been thinking about the 9000.

Did you ever try out the staples dexley? https://www.staples.com/staples-dexley-mesh-task-chair-black-56946/product_24398921

I've also been thinking about this one too. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0797HZ8W1/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_SD4kFbH908CJN

These are my top 3 after days of online looking. Probably need to go sit my butt in some but I'm super paranoid about indoor stores and catching Rona.

I know Herman Millers and Steel cases are highly recommended and can buy them used and whatnot. I just can't convince my wife I need to spend that much and wonder why someone would sell a good office chair unless there was something wrong with it, regardless of how good the brand is.

I have a steelcase criterion manufactured in 1998 that I picked up from a used office supply store probably 7 or 8 years ago, and it's still going strong. I actually just bought a brand new chair to replace it for $313 on amazon (only because the steelcase is purple, and my wife hates the color), and I'm not sure I'm going to keep this new duromont. It's a decent, heavily built chair for the most part, but feels so much less substantial than my 22 yr old steelcase...

Here's the chair I just bought, totally solid chair for the money, I just didn't realize how good I had it until I sat in the new one for the first time after putting together this afternoon: https://www.amazon.com/Duramont-Ergonomic-Adjustable-Support-Rollerblade/dp/B0797HZ8W1

Also here is the old steel case for reference, it might be slightly bigger or higher end than the one you featured? Hard to be sure via the photo: https://photos.app.goo.gl/3jitA7kjAKhd2YWY7

Is there a brand you can recommend on Amazon? All those in your imgur? What do you think about Duramont?

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0797HZ8W1/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_M3nlFbHWQXK3G

I have been using this since Oct, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0797HZ8W1/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

I'm 6'1" 270. Its really comfortable.

What do you think about this chair for example?

I just want an cheaper alternative to the Herman Miller Aeron, even the local used market wants same as new prices. Closest I can find is this for $250.

I mean, this is the one my physiotherapists recommended after I went to him with a sore back. He uses it at home, and it’s honestly the best built chair I’ve ever seen in an office.

https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B000Q5XTE8/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apip_Z8WaxjwJnpFME

But I’m sure you’re also very qualified to be saying there isn’t a chair good enough for our government employees for under $1000 too.

This is the one I've been using. It's a little on the pricer side ($165 on Amazon) but mine's been going strong for 4.5 years with no problems. It's nice and comfortable, and it's done wonders for my back pain. Only minor thing that I've noticed as of late is that the rubber on the armrest is tearing a little, but it's purely cosmetic and I'm coming up on having used it heavily for 5 years now.

Secretlab's Titan series is supposed to be better than even many of the ergonomic mesh options out there. At $400 (USD I presume?) you can get a LOT of chair, and you can even start looking into the Herman Miller options.

I just picked up this chair from amazon, and even at the 120 I spent on black friday it's a great buy. Upgrading from a terribad years old leather chair to this baby was a revelation. And if you want a headrest, you can always buy one for it aftermarket for like 20 bucks.

Looking at the chairs you posted, I would honestly not bother spending so much money on something that's not necessarily name brand. You can get something of similar quality for 200 USD less (the chair I mentioned is very highly rated everywhere I've looked)--if you're trying to spend your full budget, I'd seriously look into Herman Miller and see if you can find any good deals/sales. Patience is going to be key when it comes to buying a decent chair--the prices can fluctuate anywhere from 30 to hundreds of dollars on a whim.

Good luck!

I would recommend my chair to others. I think it's the perfect compromise on price and comfort.

you mean something like this?

u/DXRacer ; Hello, what would your recommendation be for someone 5'6" ~220lbs. I would be in the chair 4-8hrs each night and would be looking to get the additional foot rest as well.

I have a standard sized desk with my computer and a TV mounted 7' from the floor, so I would be using the leanback/tilt often while using my consoles or casting TV.

I feel constrained in my current 'office chair' http://www.amazon.com/Lorell-Executive-High-Back-Chair-Fabric/dp/B000Q5XTE8?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage that I got in 2012.

Thank you for your input!

Another chair that is cheaper is This Chair, it's $150 bucks or so, it's not as good as an actual Herman Miller but for the price its great. I got it two years ago and it's still going great.

The headrest is too thick: I couldn't really sit straight without having my head tilt forward. Leather felt semi-cheap.

The mechanism to tilt back felt like it could break at any time. At least the angle that it could tilt was .. perfect for sleeping. :) And are they encouraging gamers to sleep more? ._. $350 is severely overpriced.

Here's a better alternative that I found while reading about Herman Miller chairs: http://www.amazon.com/Lorell-Executive-High-Back-Chair-Fabric/dp/B000Q5XTE8

I use this with no complaints.

My longest session in this chair was ~30 hours and I've had it for over 2 years. Chair looks brand new besides the arms being a little worn down. Sit in this chair for way more time than I should but no back pain or anything.

For chairs: Ergonomic are the best even though they don't look like it. They're comfy and designed for sitting in them for long periods of time.

This one. It was $150 and I've had no issues pulling 20+ hour sessions in it.

Used a wooden kitchen chair before this one, so the upgrade was pretty big. Had it for like 1.5 years now.

It all depends on how much you want to spend. I would recommend go and try different chairs and see what you like. I personally bought this one http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000Q5XTE8?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_search_detailpage about 2 year ago and I have no problems with it. My only complain would be that I would love to have arms padded with some soft material.

Sorry to jump in on your post but I don't want to make another with this one being made only a day ago. I'm currently in the market for a chair myself. Only problem is mine has to come from Amazon. I have a balance of $ 140 before shipping and taxes. Any suggestions? I've been leaning towards this one

very good, reasonably priced chair.mesh back helps with back getting hot, seat is quite comfy, i think mine is slowly loosing its cushion-ness, but still very supportive (had it for over a year). seat also has a lot of adjustment (seat tilt, back tilt, height). only complaints i guess would be there is not any arm rest adjustment and nothing really in the way of lumbar support. but again, for the money, this chair should make anyone happy.

This right here. I own it personally, before this I had a cheap Walmart chair that would destroy my back and bum after a few hours of sitting in it. But this chair... this chair is amazing it's got a really good angle on the recline, the seat is real comfortable and doesn't hurt the ass bone, after a 5-6 hour gaming session no back pain or terrible uncomfort when you get up, and all around totally worth the $150 for it.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000Q5XTE8

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.

If your close to ATL, I have another one of these in our damage sale. $50. A bit heavy to ship at a low price...

I'd recommend getting a proper chair and buying a separate footrest (like this) to put under your desk. Gaming chairs are low quality and don't have proper lumbar/lower back support.

Lorell Executive High-Back Chair $128.43 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000Q5XTE8/

I have a Lorell which is pretty good except for the hydraulic piston which I replaced with a larger one. The mesh is very durable and fairly comfortable.

Just looking, amazon has some cheap mesh chairs and they look to be highly rated. Seat padding looks sub-par but the flip up arms is an awesome feature.

These types are the gold standard gaming chair but they are made for a specific body type and I don't fit that mold even remotely, I'm far too tall and wide for them so I've never even wanted to try them out. This is most likely a knockoff brand. DXRacer is the one brand I've looked at, they've been around a few years.

Heard this one is good.

https://www.amazon.com/Lorell-Executive-High-Back-Chair-Fabric/dp/B000Q5XTE8

Non-adjustable armrests -> no (though at least they seem to be removable). And it seems waaaay overpriced.

This is a good guide on computer chairs. This seems to be a decent option for your budget.

Here it is: http://www.amazon.com/Lorell-Executive-High-Back-Chair-Fabric/dp/B000Q5XTE8/

Don't ask how I know, just accept it. . .

Get a mesh back OFFICE chair off of amazon. 150$.

http://www.amazon.com/Lorell-Executive-High-Back-Chair-Fabric/dp/B000Q5XTE8

This is the exact one I have. Puts together in 5 minutes even if you are an idiot. Amazingly comfortable and resilient. Good on your back and butt.

Don't waste money on some other type of chair. The only thing BETTER that you can get is something like an Aeron..but those are anywhere from 700-1500$.

Take it from the people WHO WORK IN THEM...they work.

And for that matter...dont buy anything sponsored by pro gamers.

-Want a good headset for cheap? Get a midrange sennheiser and a modmic. want something a bit better? Get a vmoda m100 crossfade with a vmoda boom mic cable.

-Dont bother with gsync monitors, they wont be around that long. There are software alternatives that are maturing quite well, and by the time you REALLY need that 144hz monitor...you wont need gsync.

-Want louder better sound? for low price get a fiio kilimanjaro 2 e11k. Want one for more expensive? get a good amp/dac, check Head-Fi(website).

-Want a good keyboard and mouse? Dont buy razer.

I use a Roccat MK pro keyboard, after going through three razer mech keyboards...they are just shit. I would recommend a Das Keyboard, But to be honest, I like the function's that gamer keyboards allow, Das doesnt really have that option. Also look up the different switch types, the actuation pressure makes a big difference.....

Good mouse? Get a Steelseries or a Zowie or a good logitech mouse(g502 or so)

-good webcam? get an actual video camera. hook it up to your computer...do research.

I repeat, the Pros get PAID to use the things they do....You do not. Do not constrain yourself to cheaply built things.
