99 percent of “office chairs” are the same poorly constructed garbage that “gaming chairs” are. Actually good chairs are 400-1000+ which most people cannot afford unfortunately.
You can get 'em for <$500 if you look the right places. And it follows the rule of never skimping on anything between you and the earth. Shoes, Tires, etc.
The better office chairs have 10+ year warranties, if you spread out the cost of buying a cheap chair (£150) every 2 years Vs a £1000 one that lasts 10 years its not such a huge difference in price whilst the benefits to your back are worth much more.
I know not everyone can afford this, but it’s worth checking for interest free credit from either the manufacturer, store, or even PayPal / klarna (which is what I did).
Office chairs cause back pain, just like gaming chairs.
What you really want is a nice recliner and a big TV. Keyboard in lap, mouse on arm rest (or end table). I’ve been computing this way since 2008 and I’ll never go back to a desk ever again.
“Gaming Chairs” are for idiot consumers. Office chairs are where it’s at. Office chairs are designed to be sat in for 8+ hours a day.
You want a chair that makes it look like you’re about to lay off the bottom 10% performers.
Some folks like bottom performers. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I’ll take an Aeron chair.

I have one, actually. I literally found it for free on the street, because some idiot was tossing it out 😋
Holy hell, nice find!
It’s a bite to the wallet to get a decent chair, but definitely worth it, and can still be done for sub-$1000 too.

Bro, who exactly buys a new chair every 2 years? 0.o
