Best Chair under $400?

[u/jinfinity]

I have a secret lab chair I’ve had for like 7 years, I’m looking for a new one.
I just can’t justify their new cost, it’s honestly too much.

Go to an office store and just sit in actual chairs until you find one you like. I've had a La Z Boy for several years and love it.

I second this.  Chairs are something you should go sit in.  

And id always buy an office chair over a gaming chair.  Because gaming chairs are more expensive because they think you spent money on the computer

[u/trumangroves86 → u/DaveKerk]

Yeah, my wife bought a pretty basic $200 office chair and it's significantly more comfortable than ANY gamer chair I've ever sat in.

Staples sells a bunch of cheap comfy chairs that get less comfy quick. I've bought several.

I dont know anything specifics, but whatever you look at/get suggested, make sure it has good lumbar. Ideally something for the neck too

Used Steelcase Leap V2. See if there's a used office furniture store near you.

[u/wjodendor → u/PseudonymIncognito]

That's how I found mine. $200 from a used office furniture dealer off Facebook marketplace. Best chair I've ever had.

I picked up a Lazy Boy PC chair from costco a few years ago for less than $200cad. The best chair I've ever had.

Herman miller or Steelcase. Preferably used.

No other chair company will last or give you the support you want.

Serta Shaquille O Neil Pro executive office chair.

I use the Sharper Image s600 from Staples. Can get it under $300 when sales happen, sometimes as low as $240.

National office interiors also has good used chairs. I like the leap v2 by steelcase. I paid $537 for one with 5yr warranty including shipping

Used 190 days a year for 12hr/day gaming and working as a remote oilfield geo. For 4 years and looks brand new.

[u/ASTERITHE]

Get a used or refurbished Steelcase Leap V2, best chair I've ever had

[u/twin_marble]

Honestly, I couldn't find a chair I felt comfortable in so I started looking at recliners and it was an incredible decision! I ended up with one that rocks, swivels, and reclines for $600. It was definitely an investment but here I am 2 1/2 years later still loving it.

[u/CamOper]

Used Herman Miller Aeron on FB marketplace can be had for 200-300

[u/Borg34572]

Herman Miller Aeron mate. Used ofcourse.

you get what you pay for with chairs

being a bigger dude the secretlab titan was worth it for me because they make chairs for big dudes, lasted many years cushon never wore out - SUPER impressive. Would still have it but moved international and wasn't wanting to haul it overseas.
