my office is using aloha kind of design, very old already, but still very good,

there is another batch we bought local made bristol chair around the same time, all got problem already.

I also tried at nitori, their ergonomic chair also quite comfy, it is within your price range.

No, not sihoo M57. Definitely not that.

I can recommend Haworth Zody. Buy new direct from Haworth on Lazada during sale can get 1.9k. Good thing is, this chair is always sold in used office furniture shop for as low as RM400.

And to reiterate my point, don't buy Sihoo M57.

i tried all of them, Sayl, Cosm, Aeron, Mirra, Embody over 2 hours..
while Aeron is nice, I felt it kinda "forces" you to sit proper all the time..
since I use it at home sometimes I like to sit with one leg up, sit leg crossed, etc.
aeron the side plastic doesn't allow for crossed leg, sayl too small seat pan, cosm no recline lock..
only embody has wide and flat seat pan for me to do that, so I went with the Embody.

There is no ergonomic chair. Best is to just be mindful when sitting and when slouching mean is time to get up and move around.

If got money get auto standing table

Steelcase leap v2.
I believe for some steelcase models it’s actually made in Malaysia.
They’re a very close competitor to the Aeron with some users preferring this over the aeron.

Brand new and undiscounted, it’s out of your budget. But do consider refurbished units too.
