I need a bitchin' chair that will put up with my extensive neck beard computer sessions.

-it gets hot as hell where I live
-needs to be comfortable as shit.
-budget isn't really an issue
-I would rather not go angst fag MLG gaming chairs with the autistic seatbelt holes.

Show me those recommendations.

i just use a couple of milk crates
>>
anyway, serious answer: just go down to staples or office max or whatever, and they have chairs right there that you can sit in and see which one is comfy

I unironically use a basic oak dining chair similar to pic related and it's actually really comfortable for extended gaming sessions and doesn't hurt your ass or your back like other chairs do, plus it gives you great posture for leaning forward instead of most chairs that are designed for you to just sink back in them
>>
>>385268094
Don't get a gaming chair
A gaming rug is much more effective, you can get good ones for just $300
>>
>>385268439
Advice on top of this: Don't get fabric. The cushion will wear down faster than a leather chair's will, and stains happen. You know damn well how.
>>

This literally hurts me to think about. I cannot stand this over 15 minutes.

buy any chair you want
put towel on chair
take clothes off
sit on chair

IKEA Markus. If else, then you are just trying too hard to get comfortable.
>>
>>385268640
like everything but the arms on the markus, too short so I can't rest my elbow on the back of the arm. replaced them with the arms from my previous chair and now it works great
>>
>>385268094
Just use an office chair, I use pic related and it has never given me a problem
>>
>>385268568
It's actually really comfortable, especially once you get used to it (only takes a few days). I can sit in it for 6-8 hours with no discomfort

Here are your definitive options

A) Go to a local office supplies store and try shit out.
B) Get a popular chair like Ikea Markus.
C) Get a popular but expensive chair from Steelcase or Herman Miller

As a wildcard, get a Dxracer ONLY if you find one on a massive sale, which are as good as or slightly better than your run off the mill office chair like Markus but nowhere near actual high-end office chairs like HM and Steelcase.
>>
Go to a used office supply store and buy something from an actual nice brand like Steelcase or Herman Miller. You can get something like an Aeron or a Leap v2 in great shape for like $300 and it will last a decade or more.

>>385268640
Or get this if you want no cushioning and to fuck up your back by age 30. I had this for two years, so glad I upgraded from this piece of shit.
>>
>>385269193
Also, missed the "budget not an issue" part.

If that's truly the case, get either a Steelcase Gesture, Leap, Aeron, or Embody. Those are the chairs to consider if you're truly rolling in it. Gesture is pretty god tier and what I ended up going with myself. I work mostly at home and I'm at my desk for like 12 hours a day either working or playing vidya when I do and there's basically no pain after like there was with the Markus. Got really lucky and caught a deal on mine though, they are FUCKING expensive new. Probably worth it, but expensive.

Yeah it's a chair designed for dining which is the same posture you use when gaming.

Just got this for $100 off at Staples (the "Hyken" chair), did I fuck up? I've never had a mesh chair before, only fabric and leather.

Says who?

That actually looks badass

I sit on an exercise ball most of the time. It's actually helped my posture a lot. When I'm too sleepy and need to be comfy while on the computer then I bust out my basic office chair.

I would rather pick a shitty mesh over the best leather. You did good.

Will confirm that this is a great chair. Nice and sturdy and comfy for a long time.

Get some used professional office chair nigga from real brands.
You can get professional grade chair made for sitting 24/7 with the leather or mesh replaced like pic related for 300€.
This is the chair I own and it's goat you literally cannot find better, I couldn't care less about it being used.
Do not listen to the memers and bullshit about gaming chairs and shit this is the only real way out to relieve your back.
>>
Get a Haworth or a Herman Miller used off of an ad posting site like craigslist or something. You'll be able to get them for fractions of the price because offices go out of business and get rid of all their chairs.
>>
>>385269762
I have the same chair, very happy with it. It even allows you to lean back in it for maximum comfort.

>>385269762

Sort of. Staples doesn't have any good chairs.

go swimming,
also do that exercise where you sit on a chair like 25 from the floor so you have grip on your feet and move a weight back and forth in front of you with your arms while keeping your back straight

basically this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9YEhExhdi4

focus on keeping the back straight and you can just move a weight back and forth for starters
>>
>>385271685
I mostly bike-ride. Good thing is that I just started swimming like 2 weeks ago.

I could probably get a new chair

Fuck that chair, fuck it in its wooden asshole.

Had that in college and remember it as the worst chair I've ever had.

If you're in pain sitting in a normal chair for an hour, you're a fat fuck and have health problems

>>385268439

>>385269762
Best chair that staples has, I work at the shithouse and anyone that has bought it legit loves it

Get something nice from Herman Miller. Don't cheap out on it, and don't get those stupid "gamer racing" chairs.
>>
>>385274918
herman miller is basically just the overpriced gaming chair of offices
>>
>>385275140
Worth every dollar though. When my existing chair is done I'm going to pick one up.
>>
>>385272127
Considering how much time I spend at my desk, I do. I caught a deal on it and paid $400, but I was considering buying it new. You don't cheap out on things you live in. Task and mattresses specially are worth spending money on. It's why even shitty, broke offices generally give workers something okish at minimum.
>>
>>385268640
God tier chair, its also hot where i live op, its suports everything, and informs great posture
>>
>>385272127
>Who has this kind of money to waste on a fucking chair of all things
Or, here's a thought, people have a job that enables them to buy things they want.
>>
>>385275140
I also see them in many studios/audio-post houses. Love them as long as I'm not the one paying.
>>
>>385268816
My issue is I get restless and I need to change my sitting position after a certain amount of time so I enjoy being able to adjust my chair or swivel around a little to kill some pent up energy. It's not that I'm not active, but I come home from work and don't wanna do shit .
>>
>>385268094
your choices are: ikea markus, aeron C, mirra 2
if you buy anything else you're retarded.

I would have bought one if they were more adjustable, I'm 6'3" and that headrest is fucking useless.

I ended up buying the Staples 1500TM chair (also sold through Quill and a couple other places)
Adjustable as fuck, good lumbar support, sturdy as shit. I was having trouble finding anything cheap and used from Hermann Miller so I paid $250 for this and I don't regret it.
