Computer Chair recommendations

3, 2, 1, GO!

I have fairly big legs and back. Would prefer leather. I could always shell out insane amounts for a "gamer" chair such as a DX chair, but maybe there are quality options for less than 4-500 dollars. 200ish would be perfect.

I've been looking at getting a new chair myself. Was looking at the DX racer line but it seems gimmicky though they do get good reviews. I saw a best chair list on PC Gamer that had some recommendations.

If you look at the list, I have the 2nd one they recommend, which is a budget one. Had it for a few years. Still pretty comfortable. Want to get a new one cause this one squeaks a lot though.

The first one on the list looks interesting, the Office Master OM5. Expensive though. Dont suppose anyone here has used it? Thoughts?

Probably best budget chair under 200$, its not out of place in home either.
(well I got this scandic look in home but anyways..)

That is the best rated chair for that price range. Another alternative is the Lorell Executive High Back Chair currently on Amazon for around $160. More expensive (than $200) options are the VXO Work Chair, the Ignition Chair by Hon, a basic Regeneration Chair by Knoll, a basic Qivi by Steelcase, or a basic Sayl by Herman Miller.

From what I've seen, $500 is a tough price range because that's the ENTRY level price for the "real" ergonomic chairs.

I have one like this at work and at home -- prefer the mesh over leather these days.

I think both were around $500 each.

I have a Mirra2 at home. It's pretty fantastic.

Here is the one we just got in 2015 for me and the other engineer. A little pricey but well worth it!
