>Well, stories don't get much worse than this. A 14-year-old boy in China was killed when his chair exploded, sending chunks of metal into his rectum. The bleeding this caused killed him.

My only advice is to get a big and tall chair(universally comfortable) anything other and you might be disappointed.

You got to Test chairs out yourself. I bought a speedway chair based on it's design and after a month hated the thing.

Some cheapo HON chair. I want to get myself a high-end chair since this thing is twelve years old and I get real sore after sitting in it.

>>55638415
That chair is actually good. Saw it for $100 and tested it out. They also have another futon-like chair that would be nice for a desk.

Eliza Tinsley — Liberty

Not sure what name it sells under in the states but this thing is master race.

>>55638686
It doesn't feel very sturdy or like it's made of good materials. The chair I actually want from IKEA isn't sold in this country anymore so I can't be bothered to find the name but it's blue.

>>55638686
A step up from the office depot trash, decent for the money. back support is meh.

>>55638420
I kind of want to get one of these, put some speakers in those holes by the headrest, then blast eurobeat until someone calls the cops.

Best chair with no head rest/support? (don't want to fall asleep in it)

Fabric or mesh preferred, it's too hellish in florida for leather

I have a steelcase leap at my office desk and a steelcase think at home.

I like the think better but both are good.

I saw this on sale one day for 80$ but they were out of stock. Some person took the last one 5 minutes before I came. I ended up getting this chair for 50$. Still not as good but pretty comfy for the price. I would have preferred a darker color but still a good upgrade compared to my old one.

>>55643935
I really like that one and the Lazy boy's big and tall chair. I went for a racing chair (Speedway from SAMs Club) and it feels like shit. Never again will I get a chair for looks. Shoulda saved up and waited. You have a damn good chair.

>>55643935

Currently using this chair. Doesn't feel as good as it looks(not saying it looks good either).

I rather bought >>55643935

>>55644106
you spent over 1000$ on a chair. You're the one getting cucked my friend.

>>55644167
You're the one spending over $100k on back surgery.

>>55644178
I live in Canada, and I also sit properly in a modestly priced chair. If you're not grafted to the chair or unable to walk, spending that much money on a chair is absurd. Most of the problems caused from sitting are from not taking breaks and getting up and moving around

>>55644167

Sure if you're buying it new, it's like $200 used from failed start-ups.

>>55644278

I don't know what this chair is called, I just know the sound it makes when it leans back.
Makes it sound like I am farting.

So yeah fuck expensive chairs that will definitely work for most everyone, just try cheap ones until you find the one that WERKS for you.

>>55644410
>Put chairs on display

>warns you not to sit in chair

Iron-knee. But probably a bad sign of shitty chairs. I used to test keyboards out at a local music shop(they're all hooked up and on for some reason, but employees don't want us actually testing them out). Doesn't makes sense.

>>55644479
Probably because they sell the products they display. I know at Guitar Center, they didn't really care unless you were trying to break the thing (they let thirteen-year-old me play the Gibsons for fucks sake). But at this local music store, they wouldn't let me touch any guitar, even the cheap ones, because my jeans had rivets.

>>55643935
currently sitting in this chair. I am in this thread to get a new one. It is comfy, but gave me all sorts of back and posture problems. The bump at the edge of the chair knocks something off and it doesn't have locking tilt to correct it.

>>55644410
>>continue to try out chairs while reciting Japanese anime intro songs as thought it were normal speech
D-Does this work?

>>55644167

they cost like $3k in Australia

lean back. does the back of the chair swivel independently of the butt? no? then you should throw your chair in the garbage.

i prefer steelcase to herman miller.

tho the eames is my jam.

No more neck pain that I've experienced with my last chair. My back is feeling much better too. So I guess you can say it is worth it.

It's a really comfy chair if the looks don't bother you.

Pic/link related, I see a lot of hate on it after I bought mine (picked it up at office depot), but I love it. I'll use it 8+ hours on some days, never get uncomfortable, love the adjustability.

>>55646607
Don't you feel a bit silly being stationary in a racing chair sometimes? I've been meaning to upgrade my chair game but everything is either hella expensive or F A S T like yours.

>What do you use - and is it worth it?
Whatever does not break when you sit.
Mine was like €20 and still functions as intended. I grant you that it may be time to look for a new one but then again consumerism is an addictive disease and you should work hard to counter it.

>>55646683
It also kind of depends on your style I guess. I won't call anyone pleb for not going with the /g/ minimalist look and adopting something more akin to a sportsbar look for the computer space. It wouldn't fit in my current environment though.

Maybe business-like, affordable AND durable is too much to ask.

>>55646710
Chronic back pain is worse than consumerism in some aspects

That being said, I also tend to keep my chairs for 4-5 years before replacing them, my current one is almost 6 and is getting replaced in a few weeks

If you sit at your desk more than 6 hours a day it's so worth it for this reason
