Office / task chairs

Aeron is pretty god tier and the warranty has you set for pretty much life

I have a DX Racer and at $450 I'm happy with it, it might have been overpriced but it's a ridiculously comfortable chair and it's good for your back, though leather is kind of annoying as I get sweaty easily

a crate and a pillow

>>56197949
I wish I could afford one. I'm keeping an eye out on Craigslist or for any business liquidations to see if I could score one for a couple hundred, but I'm not keeping my hopes up.

I have a Kinnarps Plus[6], office chair from a Swedish company in the $500-1000 class.
I feels great and is very adjustable.

Top critical reviews (which are from this year) say it's shit and don't bother.

Should I expect to have a second chair for reading or general relaxation? I have a Bodybilt J2507 but it is very rigid and would have to be essentially retuned to switch between "workstation" or "watching a movie" modes. Is this normal with this sort of chair?

>>56197949
I'm sitting in one right now. Got it twenty years ago through work and had to replace it last year after the hydraulics broke. The dealer took one look at it and just gave me a new one. New. Just gave it to me.

I'd sleep in the damn thing if my bed weren't so comfy.

>>56201180
i have a bodybilt too, it's a very structurally sound and high quality chair but not the most comfortable.

What's a good chair with a high, flat back? Curved backs have fucked up my shoulders. Budget around $200.

>>56202480
your weak muscles are what fucked up your shoulders

>>56202531
Caused by curved chairs.

I was just thinking about this today.

I'm a bit tempted to get one of those X-Treem Game Racing chairs, on account of them being remarkably budget friendly compared to the other task chairs I've seen suggested...

any one recommend some decent computer chairs that is within the 200 dollar price range?

>>56202575
How much does the IKEA Markus cost at your local IKEA?

Staples provide some good budget chairs which have forward tilt capability
Foam Roller
Kettlebell swings + Chinese squats

>>56202653
Thanks

I have a foam roller, but it doesn't help much

>>56202662
Another good one for shoulders is just putting your back up against a wall, and doing snow angel type movements. Then bending elbows, eventually you'll find the movements which really make you go yea boi. Make sure to flatten yourself as much as you can against the wall, heels, ass, blades, wrists... it's great

>>56202737
Thanks - I'll try those.

>>56202540
caused by you being a lazy fuck and never picking heavy things up and putting them back down.

your back should be strong enough to sit in an upright position regardless of what your chair is doing.

do some deadlifts and squats senpai

>tfw $500 for a good chair

Need a mesh back chair with good lumbar support and ergonomics within the budget of a college student. And it should at least be able to last long enough until I replace it with something from Herman Miller/Steelcase/Haworth or whatever

I've been looking at the Alera Elusion but it's more than I can really afford and I dunno where I could try it out at.

>>56204954
What's your hard budget limit?

>>56204954
2nded. Have been holding out on getting a new chair because I can't settle on one.

>>56203688
fuck off poorfag

>>56204996
Like really $100ish. I mean I COULD shell out much more but I don't want to, a decent chair isn't really something I'm happy about having to pay a bunch for, but it's time.

>>56204998
I'm using a basic office chair with a completely deflated cushion, covered in pillows. Of course /g/ has made me want to find a used Aeron or Leap or something but all the places nearby are still asking too much for them.

I just drag my sofa to my computer desk and there most comfortable chair gotten for free

>>56205526
That's TERRIBLE!

>>56198513
this pleases me. i'm a grad student and my advisor offered to get my office (of 5 people) new desks, chairs, etc... given reasonable budgets for each thing, and we got the Gesture (and some sit-stand desks that are well-reviewed/rated).

as for OP, i have an aeron at home that i got for like $300 off craigslist. if you live within 100 miles of a bunch of office space, i'm pretty sure i can guarantee that craigslist will have aerons for like $400 or possibly less. if you're willing to sit on CL for a while and watch prices, and especially if you're willing to bargain down (and accept that some people won't budge, and move on when that happens), you should be able to get an aeron for less than $300. contrast that with the list price and compare to other ~$300 chairs, and there's absolutely no contest for value.

Using a Leap. There is definitely a huge difference between chairs.
In the office some retard decided to buy a whole bunch of not-so-cheap (probably around €300-400) chars that absolutely suck. I can't sit in mine for more than 1-2 hours.
I know I shouldn't do that but there are days when there isn't even enough time to stand.
At home on the other hand I just sit down in my Leap and game for 10-15 hours comfortably during the weekend.

>>56209689
I've had that for a few years and the material on the seat is starting to peel. Other than that it's a great comfy chair.

I hate the idea of blowing a grand on a replacement but I guess it's time to bite the bullet. Seems like lower cost chairs just disintegrate after a while no matter what you do.

same as above if your cl is shitty

avoid any chairs with the words: executive, faux, leather

>>56209689
I got that one too but the fake leather peeled off. Still works great though, I don't really see why change it since it's just a cosmetic issue.

If I wasn't working on the kitchen rebuild I would probably try to get one of those meme expensive chairs.

How easy is it to replace the cylinder on an aeron? I found one in the trash at work yesterday that won't go up or down and I was wondering if it's worth fixing.

>>56210255
a guy replaced his under 3 minutes on youtube, i'd rush to work right now and pick it up before the trash people come.

>>56210477
I put it in my car already yesterday just in case, sounds like I got a nice score then.

>>56210255
Where the fuck can I find nice chairs that are just chucked in the garbage?

>>56211169
businesses that fell for the standing desk meme, drive around sf and you'll see high end chairs in their dumpsters.

of you spend a lot of money on a chair thinking it will solve your problems it won't. you need to move more and sit less. a comfortable chair will likely be more comfy but i wouldn't describe any office chair as that. get a recliner
