      I have a Secret Labs chair at home and at work. I am so very picky with chairs too. I have the Titan at home and the Omega at work. The Omega is just a bit too small, but I really like them both. Better than the $500 crap mesh back office chairs they got for everyone.

        Yeah even though I’m short af I got the Titan XL, no regrets at all, super comfy, it’s a little big but honestly that makes it more comfy imo

    Any suggestions on decent chairs? I’m in the market for two chairs for my wife and son doing grad school and college from home.

    Everyone says they get aerons or steelcase leaps cheap but in central Texas the best I’ve seen are 400-600 and at least an hour drive each way. That’s still kind of steep for me (especially given the two household members in university right now)

      A few of my friends got the Autonomous ErgoChair and really like it. It’s not at high quality as a Steelcase or Herman Miller, but it’s a lot more affordable. I’d rather it than one of these gaming chairs.

      Sihoo Doro C300 - as long as you’re shorter than 178 cm you shouldn’t regret it. $300 USD on their US website. The lumbar support is amazing.

    Interesting fact, gaming chairs often have less ergonomic support and less adjustability than office chairs, making them inferior for sitting relative to office chairs.

        Check out Sihoo next time, I just bought one and it’s alright. Not as good as a Herman Miller or Steelcase though.
