Cheap chair for a tiny woman

Salty22 · 5 Sep 2017 at 18:12

I need to get my wife an office style chair for our double desk, currently shes on one of the dining room tables and its not doing her back many favours.
Shes had back problems in the past (dodgy L5S1 disc) so if there any kinda chair that'll support her back well that would be good.
Shes 5ft and 55kg so doesn't want something thatll swamp her.
Got an upper limit of about £100, any recommendations guys?

Sods law a part of the bottom of my own crappy old chair has broken this morning, tempted to pull the trigger on two Noblechair Icons lol
look at the state of this, its only 3-4 years old too.

Get one of the mesh back gaming chairs with the lumbar support

Any examples mate?

Have a look at the Steelcase Leap, get them refurbished for around £130-£200, I got mine for £120 about 3 years ago and it's just like how I bought it. They sell new for over £500 and many offices buy them so they must be good, has adjustable lumber support/arm rests/back etc, the only thing I dislike is how it's not high backed but you can get versions with that option.

My DXRacer that I've had for 3 years is starting to fall apart, All the PU leather or whatever it is is flaking off drastically, I personally would not buy another "Gaming chair"

Yeah not only that but that fake leather makes me sweat, which is why I prefer fabric personally.
