Office chair = gaming chair without gaming logo

Bought ergonomic office chair from AM Office last few weeks ago. Damn, the lumbar back support really gooding and the chair so plush and comfy albeit pricey for its price even after discounted but money well spent indeed.

Yep for people work at home for long hours definitely need ergonomic chair for back support

An IKEA Markus will do for me.

Not sure why you would want to spend more than that on a chair at home when most likely the one in  your car or office is no where near as good.
*
as an ex owner of Markus:
1. the lumbar support isnt adjustable, so it's not one size fits all
2. headrest is too tall for certain people, and it's tilted at an odd angle
3. the arm rest is fixed, too wide and too low for certain application, also the way it's assembled doesnt allow you to sit cross legged, if you fancy that kind of posture
4. seat cushion depth isnt adjustable so those who're short wont feel comfortable wtihout a footrest
5. the backrest frame is stiff, it doesnt allow much micromovement on the shoulder blade

other than that it's actually quite comfortable to sit in laugh.gif

For me AM CP is not that high, but still office chair is better than any gaming chair any given time

I not affiliate with any office equip vendor,
You guys should do own research before buy

that I concur, the weight activated reclining feature isnt available in most gaming chair, plus the chair doesn't hug you in place preventing you from moving around(you're encouraged to have micromovements while sitting down
no idea why the need to hold the shoulder in place, how often will you be flung away from your desk when you're working? laugh.gif
