Office Chair

I know next to nothing about chairs and was wondering if gaming chairs are still suitable for general office use? I can't see why they wouldn't be, but doesn't hurt to check.

Looking to get something comfortable for my Dad's office. He is 5'7", 80kg and almost 60 years old (back support etc are key).

Looking to spend up to £250, so the Vertagear SL2000 or SL4000 come to mind at the moment. Thoughts?

Both those chairs come with lumbar support & headrest cushion and are ergonomically designed for comfort during extended sitting periods.

Any particular one you would recommend for office use?

Steelcase Leap! Awesome chairs and everyone loves them + they last for years think mine was manufactured in 2000.

Had a quick Google and I think it may be well out of my price range :eek:

Decided to go for the SL-2000 as it looks good, has the head support (unlike the Steelcase Leap) and OcUK can deliver by 21st June (Dad's birthday)

Cheers everyone for your recommendations
