Could anyone recommend a good office chair

Yes, I figured I couldn't go wrong at £250. Probably able to make a profit if I didn't like it! :cry:

Yeah, they say tilt forward is for when you reach for the phone?! Hmm...

I think this is what surprised me most about the Aeron... just how heavy it is?!

So far, I'm very happy with it, very comfy. I think I suspected the mesh would be quite firm, but it's slightly springy, giving a little as you move about making it very comfortable.

I don't have the headrest and not really missing it tbh. I also don't have the tilt forward, but honestly don't think I would use it, so no loss.

Sounds like a similar experience to me. Quite a job getting it up the stairs. Ran the wife's Vax spot cleaner over it, cleaned it up a treat.

Am looking for a new home office chair. Wondering if anyone had knowledge of these 2?

This was my No.1 choice, but not in stock: https://www.argos.co.uk/product/8340865

So, was thinking of this: https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/matchspel-gaming-chair-bomstad-black-20507606/

Anyone had experience?

Many thanks!

Once you're getting into that money I'd look at the used high end chairs, the build quality is very good and you can get spares for them too.

Herman miller convert here too. Expensive yes...Worth it? Totally
I can spend 16-18 hours in the chair somedays. Mesh is comfy as and Cool
I would have bought from 2ndhand as i've used them before but at the time they had no stock......

Budget is about £200, so Herman Miller is a bit beyond price range unfortunately. Maybe next time :-)

I got a used Ergohuman Plus for not much more

Had a quick scan, but couldn't see anything unfortunately Troezar. It's for work, so tight budget and needs to be from shop.
