About to drop 2.5kAUD on a Herman Miller Aeron.Good for gaming or am I about to get meme'd?
Steelcase Leap is comfier to me but this all depends on a lot of things like what works for your body, what adjustments you need, and how you prefer to sit so it tends to be a bad idea to buy one of these super expensive chairs without going somewhere to actually sit in one first.Better to test it yourself and avoid getting memed in the first place.
>>740896682memed.
>>740896682If you want a high quality chair, look locally for businesses liquidating their office equipment.
>>740897890People keep saying this but what the fuck does this even mean in practiceHow would I ever know about a company closing?
>>740896682homo
>>740897890Used goods with lovely fart smells.
>>740896682I assume you are rich as fuck so the money doesn't really matter. I am reasonably well off (35 y.o., home-owner of a ~1.4 millionAUD dollar suburban home, 110kAUD in my savings account right now) but I would consider 2.5kAUD far too much for an office chair. What is the purpose of spending that much money - what does the chair do to be worth that much?
>>740896682>am I about to get meme'dYes, do not purchase that overpriced shit.>>740897424>Leap is comfier to meBros, let me improve your lives and shill a company called Beyond the Office Door. They take chairs, fix and refurb them to near factory new, and sell them at super discounted prices. They even do crazy custom shit like taking two different Steelcase chairs and putting them together. I have a Lamia (Steelcase Amia seat pan + Leap base or something), I paid $400-500 for it, and it's been my home office chair for the last five years without a single issue.Paying full price for brand new office furniture is like buying a brand new car. You could, but why the fuck would you?
Just buy a used one off FB Marketplace/Craigslist/Amazon/Office Supply Resellers.I have one, and it's very good quality, but it's worth nowhere near what they charge for a new one. I think I got this one for $750, and even that feels a touch too high. Very nice, very comfortable, good build quality, and it sorta forces you to sit with better posture since sitting with poor posture is uncomfortable.
>>740897958You just need to find a local furniture liquidator company, m8. They usually sell the stuff themselves for next to nothing because they get it from the companies moving offices for free.
>>740897958You can try checking "gov deals" to see if any government agencies are auctioning off stuff near you
These chairs are overpriced because large companies can afford to buy them. Buying these as a consumer is peak retard.
Ausfailian link, but these are the superior choice. a seat of netting is very comfortable, but it will wear out in a few years, no matter what material they use to make it.www.officeworks.com.au/brands/haworth
>>740896682Good chair if you have a height adjustable desk as well.Don't use the tilt lock (especially since it's ass on aeron), adjust the spring so your normal sitting pose keeps the back steady.
>>740896682If you can't picture an executive sitting on it, you don't want it
>>740897890>>740897958google 'ex-government furniture nearby'.
>>740898769Yeah, I really want a dilapidated office chair with a compromised gas cylinder because Lafwanda was sitting on it for ten years at the DMV.
>>740896682if already dropping so much on a herman miller could've bought the Logitech x Herman Miller chair instead
>>740896682lol. fuck off
No, jesus fucking christ do not spend that much on it unless you've compared it to literally everything else. >Herman Miller Embody >Steelcase Leap, Gesture etc>Humanscale Freedomand many of the other higher end chairs out thereIf you're willing to spend that much money (and oyu don't have to in many cases, check out refurbs as some other anons mention) then at least buy something worth it >Lifeform Chairs Ultimate Executive I've owned or sat in at least everything else listed plus a few others and outside of those literally 10K+ reclining workstation things (many are actually built like cheap chinkshit or are rebranded dentist chairs though so watch out for it), this is the best ergonomic chair I've found to date. In the USA, there are a handful of stores that can sell them but they're literally one offs (I got mine from a super knowledgeable lady in Colorado, despite being on the other side of the country. Sadly her store closed with COVID19 and only does B2B orders now), but aside from those Lifeform has a deal with RelaxTheBack, so see if there's one nearby. However, before you buy I suggest you call Lifeform themselves as these things have upgrades and features not not every RTB store knows about. There is a separate >High Back >Mid Backversion; I suggest mid back pictured because you can equip it with a floating adjustable headrest, among other stuff.
Just Fraisermaxx and get a Eames, OP
>>740899237Leather isn't good for the many times I just want to sit naked and masturbate.
>>740896682I really don't think it's necessary to get a thousand-dollar name-brand chair. My 400-dollar Office Depot chair is holding up just fine.
>>740896682Not worth it. It's an alright office chair. I sit in one at work. You can get them barely used for 200US on faceburg market or craigslist when offices refurnish or businesses shutdown. Steelcase is nice if you absolutely HATE the ability to sit upright when you want. Their damn chairs flex and bend even when "locked" and the most upright position is 120 degrees allegedly, even though the damn thing will deflect backwards to 150 degrees if you DARE to rest your weight against the chair so the chair does the chair thing of SUPPORTING YOUR FUCKING BACK. God I hate that shit. It also will fall apart in 2 years (I had a Think v2, worst mistake of my life). I'd just get a Staples special personally. They're way better for less.
>>740898161i don't want a chair someone else farted on
>>740898954Thats why you go in person to test the chair out firstduh
Bro just write "ergonomic office chair" or the equivalent in your native language to google.Look for a chair that looks similar to that Herman Miller but costs maybe one tenth of the price.And it will be just as good lol.Herman Miller is kinda like the Gucci of office chairs, you are paying for the brand mostly.
>>740896682i got something similar to this free out of a storage unit. the headrest is a torture device that should be removed at the soonest opportunity.
>>740898020might have the ass prints of an office lady bbw in it if you're lucky
For me it's the Fern.
>>740899337What do you sit on? Plastic?
>>740896682HM Aeron is great. No idea what 2500 dollary doos is but don't buy an Aeron new.Tons of refurbished for ~1/3 of the price
steelcase is literally for boomers
>>740900904
>>740901039sorry, but I have sloppy wet farts and the last thing I need is to slip n slide off the chair as I lean back to jack off and crack my skull shattering the glass. just sit in a kitchen dining room chair or folding chair it's honestly all you need
>>740896682Yes because you can find one for like $300 on facebook. Just check it for bedbugs.
>>740897958It's basically advice for people who live around places that have a lot of fly-by-night venture capital startup scams.
>>740899564Then go spend $2k or more on a brand new chair that's going to hit you with chemical offgassing that's way unhealthier than the lingering fart smell of some fat fuck, you dumb goy.
>>740901039Yeah, I really want to end up in the ER explaining how I have shards of glass stuck in my taint after visiting /d/ for another 'I need both hands for this' jerkoff session but end up breaking my glass chair when things get furious.
not videogames
>>740898020most of them are literally brand new cause the office fell apart that fast. Plus those places get subsidies for office equipment like that half the reason they turn around cheap.
>>740899237yea I went to a reasonably fancy chair place and sat in a expensive steelcase and I gotta say it was way too stiff for me. Where this one was more than half the price and I could lay way back and feel pretty comfy
>>740896682meme wagie cuck chair designed to make sure you don't get too comfortable and become less productive.
I used to buy an office max special once a year or two but I've had the refurb aeron since '17. Had to replace the lumbar, re-tighten some bolts and add an aftermarket headrest.
>>740896682I have two and I love them. You can probably find a used one for half that though.
>>740905165Why do you have two? Can I have one?
if you're upgrading from any cheap chair, it's amazingif you already have a "nice" chair it's no big deal
>>740896682Ngl that looks good. But really you just need a good comfortable chair that's it man. Or uhh go to a store try one out. Office depot something
>>740896682you can buy a used one in good condition for $500 usd
Secretlabs
>>740896682Get a steel case leap. Beats the shit out of Herman memer
>>740905571After somewhat regret buying a chair or two, look for ones that don't block your feet, adjust height to your own good height, headrest and big armrest, some cushion like leather or something cause otherwise it feels like you're at mcdonalds.>My chair is ok. But too lazy to take a picture here's one of my battle station.
>>740896682>am I about to get meme'd?Yes. You can get something just as good for about $200 USD.
>>740898346is haworth zody leap tier? I've seen a couple of secondhand ones, seems pretty solid from their video presentationI still can get the leap for cheaper, though
>>740896682>Good for gaming Why is this your qualifier. Your question should be, is it good for sitting at a desk for a hundred hours a week.
>>740905571>go to Office DepotDon't do this. It's all overpriced chinkshit.>>740905771Gamer chairs are the furniture version of goyslop.>>740905781Seconded. Steelcase is great and it's worth the cash, just like anything that separates you from the floor.
>>740896682buy a refurbished for like 1/6th that price, plenty of reputable dealers that dole these out on the regular. they get used in offices and then they slap some new wheels and a piston and bam, practically new with very minimal wear
Got my Steelcase Leap 2 at goodwill for $7
chair threads give me PTSD now
>>740896682You can get something similar for less. These are good chairs, they have all the features 'n stuff, but the lower back support wears out before anything else in my experience.
>>740896682looks the same as my 60 bucks chair.You don't need a 2k chair, you need to lose weight and work out.
: / I bought an embody, shoul'dve gotten...something else. the upper part just digs into my shoulder blades where I already have some back issues and it aggravates it. fucking hell.
>>740896682lol
>>740898346>officeworksIt's all chink shit. You'll be lucky to get a year out of it before it falls apart....t. australian.
>>740898020Not really a concern with mesh chairs.
>>740896682>2.5kFuck that
>>740898087I'm only a bit more well-off than you, but I wouldn't consider it a waste at all if you use it a lot. If you work at a desk, it's where you're spending a lot of time
>>740896682I got myself a Anda Seat Kaiser because Im a big tall boy. Only complaint is I needed to drape a blanket over the back as it doesn't have any cushioning. Don't meme yourself on wire mesh sloppa anon.
>unironically recommending a Gamerâ„¢ chair in a thread about real chairs
>>740910697That's like $30 USD calm down
>>740912559Find me a real chair that can fit a 2 meter tall 110kg broad-shouldered man that isn't wiremesh garbage.
>>740896682You can get something similar for only $80-100
Real gamer use plastic chair
>>740912632No.
>>740907494The fuck? How tall are you?
Gamers rised up and owned the office chuds
>>740896682great chair.two minor or large issues.1. lumbar support, you might want to replace it with a different version, which is possible.2. if you're fat or big, prepare to get your balls squeezed. it's not a chair where you easily spread out your legs to let them air or hang. this can not be fixed. it's the one issue that sometimes makes me want to look at other chairs.
>>740912632
>>740896682Steelcase Gesture is better, I drove to a Herman Miller showcase room and sat in them and it doesnt compare, it's for working ergonomically at your office not sitting comfortably for hours on end for gaming
>get a used chairjust how poor is /v/? That's fucking filthy.
>>740898020Cross your fingers you're getting a chair used by a hot middle aged braphog
>>740896682retard
>>740906145Secretlabs aren't bad at all, their accessories are overpriced as fuck but I've been happy with the one I got and the only thing I've had to replace were the arm rests which were the most chintzy thing about it.
>>740912892This is all you need when you are getting tired from a standing desk.
>>740896682It's good but you're paying 200% more for 10% increase
>>740896682>dumb kiwi spends 2.5k on a meme chair when a chink one that looks exactly the same only costs 1/10 of itthis is what I call retard tax
I dropped about 300 for a used leap v2, it's nice coming from a shitty one. I went to ikea and tried the, I think markus? and really didn't like how in the way the fixed armrests were, never thought about shit like this before but getting a nice chair made me appreciate stuff I assumed could never be adjusted.
>>740914919you can buy a lot of dogshit chairs that "look" like higher quality ones, but you certainly won't get the same build quality or access to surplus parts for repair
>>740897424>no headrestinto the trash it goes I'm sitting in one right now
>>740918024> access to surplus parts for repairYou can buy a whole new chair for how much those parts cost.
>>740896682YOU ARE GETTING MEMED LOOK FOR THE SAME CHAIR AT A LIQUIDATION SALE OR CHAIR SUPPLIER FOR A FRACTION OF THE COST
>>740896682>>740912892I have POTS and sitting with my feet down is pretty shit. I always sit cross legged on chairs. I want a recliner like this, but on a wheel base for games.
>>740918232Might I recommend this Fat Bastard's DelightThe armrests fold outward for cross-legged space and it has a recliner footresthttps://www.amazon.com/FelixKing-Executive-Reversible-Reclining-Footrest/dp/B0G4L6KW29
>>740896682Are you a silly billy cenno cunt? You can't even beat the skin off your dick with that.
>>740918524those inbuilt footrests are built for 2kg chinese women because as soon as you put any weight onto it the whole thing tips forwards
>>740918524>>740912892gooner approved chairs, the best chairs are the ones where you can fall asleep in it after you coom.
>>740918573That chair is rated and built for 400lb. fat fucks anon
>>740918524I have one at one house, but it won't fit at the other sadly. The one I've got is cloth, and made by Germans.
>>740918597the chair might be but not the footrest, it doesn't matter if you are fit or fat because the ratio of the weight on the front tips it
>>740896682This is like one of the brands that only exist because there are enough retards buying. Benq is another one where the monitor light bar is over 200usd and the fucking 240hz 1080p IPS monitor is OLED priced for some retarded reason.
>>740896682No, it's an extremely outdated POS. Mesh chairs are appealing because of sweat and all, I get it, but do consider a typical upholstered chair with foam. Steelcase Leap/Amia, maybe even a Haworth Fern.I thought I'd hate a fabric chair with foam and that it'd make me sweat terribly, but that hasn't been the case at all.Don't write off refurbished, either, so long as they are transparent in how they refurbish their stuff (cleaning, repairing, testing, etc.)>>740897424The Steelcase Amia for me personally.>tends to be a bad idea to buy one of these super expensive chairs without going somewhere to actually sit in one first>Better to test it yourself and avoid getting memed in the first place.Yes, but important caveat here!!!!: >You cannot tell if a chair is going to be good for you in such a short amount of time. You can, for the most part, tell if a chair is utter dogshit from sitting in it (except for the case of the Aeron), but otherwise you need to sit in it for several days before you notice if you're getting back or even hip/leg pain.This is why I mentioned refurbished earlier in this post. Anyone without a chair can check around, see what the return policy is from some stores. I was lucky enough that the one I ordered from let me send back a couple chairs after sitting in them for a couple weeksMake sure the refurb place you're ordering from actually cleans and repairs their stock they receive, otherwise cope and buy-once-cry-once or wait for a sale for 20-25% off from Steelcase, Haworth, etc.Proper sitting posture is also important. The best chair in the world for (You) isn't going to mean shit if you're goblin-slouching in itIt also won't magically fix a bad back, nor completely prevent you from getting fucked up. You NEED exercise. Not even powerlifting shit either, but at least walking for 20+ minutes every day, and getting up every couple hours. Drink water regularly and this is way easier since you have to piss :)
>>740896682Just buy a good fucking sofa and tell your parents to fuck off if they want to throw it away because it's old. I've gone through 10 of these "gaming" chairs and they've all been literal pains in the ass.
I have an Aeron. Don't get one if you're like me and like to sit crosslegged on occasion. The plastic on the edge of the seat mesh makes it impossible.
I paid 250 bucks for my Aeron and in the 10 years since I've spent probably the same amount on repairs (the armrests were cheap junk so I bought the OEM leather ones, after 15 years it needed a new gas cylinder, and after 20 years it needed new mesh). Love this lil nigga, would never downgrade to a fucking foam chair again in my life.
>>740896682If you want to sit like an office worker sitting at an 8 hour shift, your back probably won't hurt afterwards.Or if you're fat at least it won't get smelly.If you want to lounge or chill though it's not the right chair. It is built for upright productivity and good posture.
>>740919083He'll eventually melt into the sofa and his skin, bacteria, mold will merge into the sofa, he'll be unable to move from it and will die inside the sofa in his own filth.
>>740896682An Ergochair 2 is better and much cheaper.
>>740919341It's a cheap piece of shit. The Aeron is built like a tank in comparison, designed for 300 lbs fatass 24/7 usage.
>>740898087If you're plopped on that chair for like 6 hours+ a day I'd say it's totally worth it. That's a fourth of your day every day. I believe the same is true with bedding. Get the best because your body is on that thing 8 hours a day.
>>740919785The problem with this is that the reason people like the Aeron is because it's a good chair and they sold a billion of them to offices so you can get one in great condition for a tenth of the list price.If you're going to blow 2k you might as well get something more up to date.
i got the logitech fancy one i dont really recommend it isnt worth the price, having to get a headrest, ontop of the arm rests sucking is annoying, also its fucking heavy and sits way too low so every time i try to scoot up my chair to my desk it bangs against the carpet protector thing under my desk, its so fucking annoyinghonestly recommend the staples one with the very good warranty instead
>>740919939100% this, there is absolutely 0 reason to buy a brand new herman miller because a lot of companies never went back to work in office style of work and now there are literally warehouses and storage units full (I've seen them) of brand spanking new chairs they will sell you for 2-400 USD. In fact I knew a couple of people who were liquidating some offices and they were giving away chairs that had been used for 6-18 months away for free. So look around before you go and spend a shit ton of money.
>>740896682If you're tall, all their chairs suck.
>retards recommending gayming chairscome on...
>>740896682Protip: all these expensive high end ergonomic office chairs are designed to keep you productive, not necessarily comfy. They are made so you won't fall asleep sitting in them, so by the same token aren't designed to kick back and have fun gaming or whatever. They want you back straight eyes forward and working.
>>740919939You can still snipe good deals but it takes time (which shouldn't be free). Used Aerons and Leaps have become a meme and the market is inflated which defeats the purpose. It's like retards paying 12k for a 30yo miata, the reason they're a track meme is because 15 years ago you could buy one for 3k it's not a special car you're a poser who doesn't get the meme if you overpay for one.
>>740896682If you're around 6'4" like me, these chairs are way too small, even the "large" size one. Way too much space between the edge of the chair and my knee. Desk chair shopping for my height range is a nightmare in general, most of this shit is made for women and manlets to begin with.
>>740920582the logitech one lets you adjust the length it pulls out
>>740918524
>>740918057Only obese retards with fucked backs need a headrest
>>740920621>Way too much space between the edge of the chair and my kneeYou need to some squats and deadlifts and eat some food if any of your body's weight makes it to your knee when you're sitting down. Build up a meat cushion.
>>740920621Trust me, the seat pan doesn't adjust far enough on those either. I tried one at some ridiculously expensive hipster furniture store.
>>740902376>Im poor and mad over a chair
>>740920834I don't think you understand what I meant. I meant the edge of the chair was like 6+ inches from the back of my knee. Horizontally. It's a chair for short people.
>>740920357Skill issue. Reclining in mine right now. Feels good knowing I'm not sitting in a $900 gayming chair with fake leather that's doing absolutely nothing for me.
>>740896682I'm gonna fucking say it.Just get one of pic related. Ultra durable, ultra stable, no spinny flimsy bullshit.Tired of chair with wheels that breaks all over the places randomly that you can or can't even think of. Why the fuck do you need wheels? No you don't. Why the fuck to you want to spin? No you don't. Adjustable height? Are you 12? You are not getting any taller, dumb fuck. Just get pic related and be happy.

>>740921420Cloth is the best material period, but it's rare and hard to find these days. After that is real leather followed by fake leather and at the very bottom in the depths of the sewer is mesh.
What's a good $500 solution? Look around for local used office chairs? Uh, how does one spot a fake?
>>740921420https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uek9p_vggXs
>>740920959I know what you meant. The seat moves horizontally and you're complaining that you can't pull it until it hits the back of your knee. What I'm telling you is that you don't need it to hit the back of your knee, and depending on you like to seat you don't want it to (tall desk, knees below the hips like a stool). Unless you're atrophied or morbidly obese legs are cone shaped.
>>740918594Gross>>740921253Yes, but mentioning this to fags on this site that>jizz in their pants and leave it for hours/days>jizz on their keyboards and monitors>jizz on their anime figures>think only warm water is enough to "clean" their figures, or "clean" out their fleshlights and onaholes, (soap? porous material and seams? what's that?)>don't wash their hands after pissing and shittingIs kinda pointless.>>740921420Definitely not >>740921470 what this dude said, unless you have a handheld steam cleaner at the ready to use if you get cum on your chair.Something you could use a disinfectant wipe or something on would be the easiest, fastest cleanup.
>>740921642Have you tried just not cuming on the chair? This isn't hard, aim better. They aren't figures or jars. You don't need to cover them in jizz.
>>740920959What this >>740921641 nigga said.From what I've heard you should have about 3 fingers to a hand's width between the back of your knee and the edge of your chair, and ideally your chair's edge should be rounded/slope downwards in the front as to not cut off circulation.
>>740896682>>740897424Steelcase Leap is better.t. bought both Aeron and a Leap.
I have a $300 SIHOO chair and it's comfy as hell. I kneel to my Chink overlords. Glory to the CCP.
>>740921693You heard wrong, those are lies told to justify selling you less chair.
>>740921641Wrong. Dead wrong. You are a retard. Proper posture and circulation requires that there only be two finger widths of space between the edge of a chair and the back of your knee. Tons of extra space is very bad for you, and these chairs are utterly not built for anyone over 5'5".
Herman Miller is absolutely worth it. I sat on Mirras for almost a decade at my job and finally caved in and bought my own, the chair is just uniquely suited to my spine. If you spend most waking hours at your desk like me you owe this to yourself
>>740921682Okay genius, where are you nutting then?On yourself?On a towel or into tissues?Are you just leaving whatever medium you splooged all over just out there, or are you handling it while touching your keyboard and mouse/phone and going about your day eating and drinking with trace amounts of sperm on your hands?Just leaving jizz napkins in your trash can so your room smells like nut gunk?You use lube or oil? That's gonna drip down your shaft and balls onto your chair, that's just gravity, man. A towel helps, but it can soak through that. A plastic/rubber liner underneath it then?Fact is that jacking off and sexual shit in general just gets fluids everywhere and you don't even realize it. If you don't shave your pubes and use lube/oil/whatever chances are your pubes are flinging little specks of the lube that is around your junk all over your desk and keyboard, use a flashlight when you're done to verify.Shit's nasty, breh

>>740921863Ok rich boy now explain how do you sit on the front edge of a swivel chair without slamming your ass on the floor
You want a 24 hour dispatcher/control room chair, you know the type of thing police, security and emergency people sit in for massively long shifts.
>>740896682just make sure you go and try it out somewhere before you buy it
>>740921769Nah, it's at least been true for me. I've had my legs fall asleep like, 5 times in the last 2 years following that advice. Compared to my shitass old mesh chair with a hard edge and a stiff cushion that pushed up on the lower back part of my thigh, which was at least once or twice a week.And that's coming from a DYEL, God forbid you're a fat fuck, for sure getting some DVT in those legs then.
>>740921827You are beyond stupid nigga. Just take out your trash.
>>740921094yes, I need a chair with arm rests that stay up.
>>740921989The issue there was having a shitty mesh chair to begin with. Like no shit a meme chair designed for maximum profit ratio without regard to comfort would fuck you up.
>>740922002Or I can just not put disgusting ass cum tissues in my trash can, and not worry about handling them and then touching my kbm/phone that I use for the rest of the day.I can guarantee most of you niggas don't even try to keep one hand clean jorkin' it anyway, so don't @ me. Honestly it's a miracle there aren't more people with STDs out there, all things considered with you nasty ass fags
>>740922045All mesh chairs are basically shit for that reason, however. An Aeron is just as uncomfortable as a $200 mesh chair for the same reasons.For circulation and overall comfort something that doesn't have a hard plastic frame/stiff cushion at the front pushing up on the back of your lower thigh is necessary. A foam seat that's a bit stiffer in the back, and softer and slightly flexible in the front, with a couple inch gap between the back of your knee.
Pic related is my current chair and it's pretty good except it uses shitty fake leather that flakes off and gets everywhere, and I would really prefer if just the area inside the red border could be mesh for better airflow. If it had that and replaced all the fake leather with real leather it would be the perfect chair.Does anyone know of a char like that?
>>740922319Why do you want leather to begin with
>>740922108>he says, as he keeps cumming on his chairBro....
>>740922319If it was real leather it would likely be more breathable than that fake leather trash.Not as breathable as fabric or mesh, but still.
>>740922379More comfortable than mesh (even if mesh is better for airflow) and I can't do fabric because I have dry ass skin and sometimes I sit like L in my chair so my feet tear up fabric like a cat scratching post.
>>740921770If you think that the distance between the back of your knee and the edge of the chair is so important to circulation. Then you would just use a standing desk and never sit at all. Because sitting is much more unhealthy for you and for your circulation than the distance of the edge of a chair is to your leg.
>>740922391Nope, I've already explained the pitfalls and you confirmed you're a nasty ass nigga who keeps nut napkins in his room>j-just take the trash outGonna do that every time you bust one out? Better hope no jizz got on the sides of the inside of the trash can, nigga, cuz anyone with a functioning nose can smell that shit if they come in your room, so hopefully you live alone breh
>>740922489>cumming into a napkin and throwing it out is worse than cumming on your chairNigga you are gross one. Is this some fetish thing?
>>740922319That's retarded, you're retarded. Anyway, that shitty chair you posted is the cheapest slop on amazon, China makes probably a billion of these a year. They won't make one with actual leather, look for old used executive chairs.Leather is not magic, and it will wear the fuck out. In terms of wear resistance, mesh is number one, because it's harder than your clothes and will eat through them first.
>>740922534No, I already said both are bad for different reasons. Sorry you're too dumb to read, nut napkin nigga
>>740922319>it uses shitty fake leather that flakes off and gets everywhereJFC I can't imagine the mess five square meters of flaky pleather would make. Put a cover over it or something. I simply put an XXL shirt on mine when I want to game shirtless.
>>740921827>lubeLol. If you didn't have a mutilated dick, you could just cum in your foreskin and then go piss it out. Zero mess.
>>740898087If you're in your chair a lot, it's a great investment. One of the best things you can do passively to care for yourself. But yeah there's so many of them around still in boxes, getting one brand new is excessive.
>>740922608>just jizz on yourself lolNigga
Picked one of these up about a month ago>doesn't have that hard edge on the front digging into your thigh>back is separately height-adjustable>bottom half of the back sticks out quite makes it very easy and comfortable to sit perfectly straight up>has 3 locked positions and a footrest so you can actually get pretty damn comfy on it >omnidirectional adjustable arm restswe'll have to see how long the build quality holds up for but so far this is the best chair I've ever had easily
>>740923163>on yourselfI'm sorry you don't know what a foreskin is, man.
this is the best shit ever
>>740923163Do you not bathe or something? Why would that even be a problem?
Do expensive chairs also get loud after a while?
>>740923306Anyone with experience sitting on chairs can tell right away that design offers no support while sitting upright. Even for gayming you'd have to use a controller. That's a lounge chair.
>>740923381My SteelCase Think v2 creaks. Not a big deal since I'm the only one who can hear it.
Anyone got one of these?Apparently a good herman miller clone but I checked youtube reviews and every single one is sponsored so idk if its just chinaman shilling
>>740921603just buy from a reputable shop, unless your ass has experience identifying chairs you should just pay a bit more for the peace of mind if you care about this kinda thing.
>>740923532>meshNigga it's trash.
>>740898087You're paying for the brand. Also there are other reasons to not buy that chair like the plastic part of the seat digging into your thighs if you dare to even manspread. Contrary to what a few anons ITT are saying but that seat isn't going to improve anything that any other competent office chair equivalents can, and if you actually care about your health you would be eating healthy and exercising frequently which makes much more of a difference than a 2000 dollar chair.>>740923215I have a different chair by the same company. Pic related.>foam instead of mesh>no possibly of your thigh coming into contact with hard plastic when sitting down>armrest can be raised to allow closer desk position>can be folded under a desk when not in use or during VR sessionsProbably the only chair with this gimmick which is really nice. No reclining is a shame but I have a couch and bed to really relax on so it's not an issue.
just get a Markus nigga
Gonna dump a ton of money on the libernovo max with the fan and motor stretch. Ill report back in a month about how retarded of a decision that was.
>>740907261retarded alisafag
>>740923287Nigga just cuz the tip of your dick gets temporarily covered with your foreskin doesn't mean you aren't just living nut on your willy afterwards. Pissing isn't gonna get that off your dick.Even using tissues or even a wet wipe isn't going to help, you're gonna smell like cum and then cum, sweat and piss afterwards unless you bathe immediately after every time you jack off.>>740923361Do you bathe immediately every single time after you jizz on yourself then, breh?
>>740923730Personally I'd go with Manual version. The less electronics the better. Good luck though bro, I'm hoping to hear from you in one of the threads.
>>740898087>what does the chair do to be worth that much?Preventing your spine from getting fucked up?Usually having a warranty for 10+ years?Being made in a country that isn't bugland? So you know the piston isn't going to explode into your anus in a few months?>OOOOOOOOooooOOOOHHhh I couldn't POSSIBLY spend $800-$2500 to help prevent me from becoming crippled later in life! I could spend all that money on fast food and funko pops and more lame, gay censored remastered/remade vidya, or onlyfans whores, or weed lol!Spoken like a nigga that never experienced back pain, or any pain that is severe enough it immobilizes you.
>>740923730Imma be perfectly honest it doesn't look comfy to me. Everyone in google images is using it reclined with awful neck posture and the arm rests bumping against the table. It seems good for napping though.
>>740896682>I MUST have the expensive meme chairYou fell for paid shilling. "Gamer chairs" are the exact same thing and shills banked on you being ashamed of your hobby to sell you overpriced office shit. Ergonomics is a joke and there's nothing real or scientific about a Miller chair no matter what it claims to do for your back, and you're not meant to be playing games for 12 hours anyway. It doesn't matter what you sit on if you get up and move around regularly like you SHOULD. If you're really that scared that people will see that your chair has the word "gamer", on it, buy the cheapest chair that rotates and can adjust height that you can and just don't be a retard. That's all it takes to avoid back pain.
>>740896682Do I see it right? $2.5k meme chair has plastic wheels?
>>740897424Leap V2 is more comfortable but Aeron just seems like it lasts longer. Also Aeron is easier to clean from body fluids, just wipe the mesh.>t. sitting on a 2007 manufactured Aeron in 2026, and sitting on a Leap V2 at the office for the past 8 years
I'm sure some of these high end chairs are nice but there's nowhere I'd be able to practically go to try sitting on oneI think my current chair cost like $300 and its held up fine for years, I am kinda sick of the mesh back though I might get something padded next time
>>740924715I got something similar a decent ergonomic chair shipped from Melbourne. It has lasted me for years. All you really need is for the side arm guards to be adjustable and lower than your adjustable desk to slip in. I can rest my arms and hover over my key board even with my back straight. When I game I lower my chair all the way so the arm guards slip under the table. Besides that having 990 Beyerdynamics the only thing that could use a huge improvement would be a better dac / usb soundblaster or something better if anyone knows
>>740896682how retarded do you have to be to spend more than 50 bucks on a chair.
IKEA Markus works well for me.
>>740896682They are great chairs but horribly overpriced when new. I have two of them from fb marketplace used. Paid $20 and $45. 2.5k in whatever that is in USD is lunacy.
>>740925284sorry about your money issues anon
>>740925284$50 is like 1 doordash order bro, surely you can spend more than 1 doordash order on a chair
>>740925796how retarded do you have to be to spend 50 bucks on a doordash order
>>740925834Just because you're poor doesnt mean we are bwo :3
>>740925796If you're not dumpster diving like >>740925635 you don't deserve a high-end chair. It's like losing your virginity to a hooker.
>>740925834$50 is like 2 entrees delivered from a non fast food restaurant. I can get pizza delivered for $20 but I'm not a college student anymore, no more pizza and instant noodles for me.
Mirra better unless you're a fat cunt
>pretend to care enough about your back health to justify buying a 2k meme chair because reddit told you to>doesn't actually care enough to go to a real-life showroom and sit in different chairs to find one that feels good
they are coming to pick up this chair today in a few hours for me, I'm returning it, really wasn't worth the money.thing is, they are "picking up an already packaged item" but it's not packaged, and I don't have the tools to package such a big ass chair. idk what's going to happen
>>740926063they're going to tell you to pack it up retard
>>740924715I said it earlier, but the only thing going and sitting in one in person will tell you is if you like the feel of the fabric and the features it has like reclining/its controls.>>740926015You need to sit in a chair for several days before you can tell if it's going to fuck you over, retardbro.
>>740925796why would I do that when I can just walk 5 minutes to my corner Supermarkt and buy a 10kg bag worth of supplies?
I'm just using a $400 chair from officeworks because it had a 10 year warranty. Works pretty good. Pretty solid for the price.
>>740925910all that money you saved wont unfart someone elses gas on your chair
>>740926151>It only costs the amount of a delivered meal>>b-bbbut why I can cook at home!!!!Ok but it costs the amount of a delivered meal
>>740923532I do, it's comfy.
Why are there so many poor people in here.
>>740926063Just tell them the truth. Office chairs are not made to be disassembled once assembled, the gas canister for example slots into the chair legs with pressure and is impossible to get back out by design. You cannot try a chair without fully assembling it, so not being able to take it apart is a design flaw, not your fault. They have to take it, otherwise they are breaking their own return terms agreement. And the chair is not a perishable like a printer cartridge or a fucking sandwich.
plebeians the lot of you.
>>740924593Is degradation from cumming on the mesh covered by the 12y warranty...
Go find an office liquidation store if you can, way way better prices.Also personally I've found the RHlogic 400 elite to be the comfiest chair ever, especially if you are looking for one with a headrest, the headrest actually looks fucking terrible but when you use it you will find it's one of the best designed ever.This is also the first time I've posted since the new captcha was put in place, has anyone found it just always tells you it was 'mistyped' if this gets through I don't really know how, and no I'm not rangebanned
>>740926238delivering meals is for the lazy and uninspired shit eaters.if you want to have an actually good meal you either make it yourself or go to a proper restaurant, not having some poor indian on a scooter bring you your McDonald's.
>>740926015It doesn't really matter and they all sort of feel good once you dial them in. Ergo chairs cost so much because they have like 5 dials that change the chair's form to fit your body.
>>740926339>This thing has a value of n dollars>>That thing is BAD!Yes your opinion on thing has been acknowledged, but that thing still has a value of n dollars.
>>740926406it isn't.the value of it is actually 0, because it's the worst outcome of any possible outcomes, while better options are available and are either cheaper and significantly higher in quality.
>>740926353Assuming they have most/all the usual configurations.The ones without '4D' armrests are kinda fucked to me
>>740926515Still doesn't change the fact it costs $50 to deliver 2 entrees from the local restaurant.
I hope you tried one out. Blind buying furniture is a terrible idea.
Is the Libernovo Omni maxis worth it /v/? its going on pre sale the 16th
>>740896682I just want a good comfy cheap desk chair. Is that so much to ask…
>>740926646okay?..
>>740920790This guy is an out of work chiro. Fuck you nigger, I'm not going to be a cripple by 50.
>wanted a nice chair that supports my lower back>should also allow me to lay back like a recliner>went online and looked around>office showroom 15 minutes away>went there>tried several chairs in person>found a mid-range price model that did everything I wanted>solid steel construction and loads of customisation like neck support and armrest adjustments>paid $530 (converted for the sake of the fatties)>delivered right to my door the same day for free>absolutely brilliant and loving it a year laterIt's just a chair, don't turn it into some faggoty female instagram lifestyle choice eventez as that
>>740926668Wouldn't even consider even trying one because from what I see:Shady companyToo many moving electric partsShit warrantyLike it looks like a literal chinkslop scam
>>740926305I'm still using the same 2007 manufactured mesh. It looks the same after a few years of use. The mesh still looks like it can go for another 10 years. Nothing broken, no holes. To wipe semen off I just get a wet paper towel and rub it. Cloth seats take like 2x more effort and I'm not confident I got it all out. With mesh I can wipe it both sides and soak the cracks of the mesh easily.
>>740926717>Just buy a chair that you'll sit on for 5+ years with the same value as 1 delivered mealThat's the point I was making, it's kind of silly to be so niggardly on something that you're going to sit on for hours every day, and years on end.
>>740926113maybe yeahthey got in touch only yesterday, as if I'm going to get everything I need to package a whole chair in 1 day (I am in a really isolated place)>>740926264you're right, I agree. it costs ~60€ to take it back, I would assume the company knows what they're doing and can handle it, but if they can't then I guess I'll have to talk to customer support again!
>>740926798yes its a new Chinese chair company they have released other versions of the Omni already which were received good but if you are taller than 180cm the chair is too small because its based on Asian people and the new Maxis is a bigger version basically, and the electric motor is optional its some message back stretcher.
>>740923532>but I checked youtube reviews and every single one is sponsoredsponsored vids are useful only in letting you know that everything said in said video is false or misleading.absolute best case scenario, the reviewers got the only chairs that have been QA'd properly while every other sucker gets the shaft
>>740898087>What is the purpose of spending that much moneyI'M IN MY CHAIR MORE THAN I'M ON MY BED IS WHY
>>740898087There's only two things that you should never cheap out on in life.First being tools that you rely on daily. And the second being anything that insulates you from the ground, be it chairs, beds, and especially shoes.
>>740896682The Aeron is an excellent chair for office work, specially if you're a fat fuck, if you game like you do paperwork it's a great investment.
>>740927004Feels like I cheaped out by only paying 2k for my chair when you put it that way
>>740926151For the same reason that you don't spend 50$ on lumber, foam and fabric to make your own chair.
>>740926901buy a high quality one for the proper price.a chair has no business being thousands of dollars unless it's made out of rare metals or has cutting edge high technology in it.it's a fucking chair. it's not rocket science. it's plastic and some metal. you could buy all the production machinery and make your own for a lot less than that. therefore the value is inflated.
annual reminder
>>740927136why not? though it's easier to use the chair from an actual car in this case. and a lot cheaper than shitty gamer sim chairs that don't cost a 20th of the asking price.they used to teach how to make chairs in schools in the past. forgotten knowledge apparently.
>>740927147Ergo chairs that cost $1000+ typically have many adjustments, not just the basic chair height. The adjustments are what makes it more expensive than a $300 chair. How far it pushes against your lumbar, the seat depth, the tilt resistance, the tilt distance, the armpad height & depth, the headrest height & depth, and more expensive chairs have even more dials and knobs. These dials and knobs each perform some mechanical function, and must support the weight of a human for 10-20 years.
anyone else's leap v2 wobble slightly when shifting weightis it just that im a fatass and im overcoming the stability of the cylinder and i should stop trying to replicate the wobble because im just giving it undue wear in my autism of trying to understand why it is wobbling slightly
>>740927495or... get this... you just make the chair with proper dimensions for yourself, because it's your chair, without all the unnecessary "complexities" that the marketing department spins into "premium features".
>>740927557I'm unfamilar with leap's warranty policy but it sounds like the perfect time to email them to ask about it. Maybe get the free on-site visit from a technician to check it out
>>740920357I jerk off everyday on my leap with one leg on the table, and I'm thankful for it's reclining reach and 3d armrest while doing it
>>740927805i got it secondhand refurbished but with a long warranty covering things like the cylinder. i just wanted to see if anyone else knew what i meant before making a trip across town just to realize theyre all like that on the showroom floor and im just being a freak about it

>>740926279take it back to the dining table, your mom's been complaining about it for weeks already
>>740929330What's your problem with it? the arm rests? I've been eying them for a while, I want some grippy leather with a million boomer farts and cumstains on it. As you said they're popular and cheap. The alternative are SteelCase Please which are also popular in leather in my region, and similarly priced if not cheaper.
Why do all ergo chairs have hard plastic armrests?
>>740930360You're wrong and retarded. All ergo chairs have black foam armrests. n=1

>>740896682Muh lumbar support is a wedge in your back that gives you an anterior pelvic tilt. My 12yo truck seat was better than this piece of shit.Memed.
I got memed into buying an expensive ergonomic chair too. After of month of "getting used to it" my back was in so much pain I even had problems sleeping. Gave it away for free.
>>740931171I think at this point it could only be ayylmaos like the predator. The crocs would have to evolve into full on dark souls mimics and that just ain't happening
>>740923306I have this same chair. I actually got it after RETURNING my Aeron because the Aeron was giving me unbelivable nerve pain after two weeks of sitting. I can highly recommend Kinnarps. This has way more adjustements than Aeron which has practically nothing and is actually comfortable for sitting 12h per day
>>740905964>is haworth zody leap tier?It's one tier under a Leap. I have the classic Haworth Zody and while it's good, I wish the backrest was slightly more flexible. All the levers and knobs take a bit more getting used to than the Leap, but once you learn how to use them they actually give you better customizability for the chair than you'd get with the Leap.

L-zi-boy makes office chairs and they are peak comfy. They're like a mix of desk chair and a recliner.
Most people only sit in a car for 4 hours a week but for the last 10 years every shitbox has had better seats than whatever multi-thousand dollar memechair you people fap over.How did we let ourselves get jewed so hard.
>>740935675You say that like cars aren't just as stupid overpriced while also being far more unreliable and more expensive to keep running these days.Also, if you're looking to replace the seat in your car for whatever reason don't expect it to be cheap. You might find yourself paying multi-thousand dollars for that too.

>>740913237anon a used office chair sees way less wear than a personal one. Acting like finding a multi-1000 dollar chair for 70-80% cheaper is someone being poor is a dumb take. They are being smart
>>740936207And yet people will happily use a desk made out of glass.
>>740900760Fellow haworthchad, nice. I use the Soji myself, I love it.
are these expensive ergonomic chars any good for leaning back and having your feet on your desk? or are they designed so that you have to be upright with feet on the floor to be comfortable?
I'm probably gonna drop some cash on okupAnybody used these?
>>740896682Just buy a fucking gaming chair you fucking
>>740937757I'm always hesitant to try these types of chairs because they have so many parts that can break
>>740937663>are these expensive ergonomic chars any good for leaning back and having your feet on your deskYes>or are they designed so that you have to be upright with feet on the floor to be comfortable?Wouldn't it be nice? Such a chair doesn't exist no matter how hard manufacturers try to pretend. If you're upright there's no horizontal force on your back so there's not much that a chair can do. If you're upright it doesn't matter if you sit on a Capisco, an Aeron, a toilet seat or a bucket turned upside down.The ideal posture with these, the one that will make you feel truly ergonomic, is with approximately 15deg lean back, arms relaxed on the armrests and feet on the ground, something in-between the two you described. Notice how this doesn't match the "correct posture".
>>740937663They're designed to keep wagies on their toes literally
>>740938168i'd like to believe you>>740938278but this makes more sense

When I bought my own house my friend gave me his standing desk and herman miller since he was moving out of the country.Like 3k saved.
>>740920790>Only obese retards with fucked backs need a headrestThis guy is extremely poor, fox & the grapes cope. I don't "need" a head rest but I like having it when I put my legs on the table, or my gf straddles me to get my attention or when I put my arms behind my head. You give yourself away by talking. Next you're going to say you don't "need" a remote start for cars or you don't "need" an elevator. Enjoy your cheap stool. What a retard.
>>740921420>So what chair material is best for gooning?Mesh, so you can spray it down with soap and water outside, without fear of mold bacteria getting absorbed into foam or leather.
>>740923532What makes the Harmen Miller good, is that the arm rests fold away, giving you more room to stretch your thigs, legs, arms, back. Sometimes, I sit on my chair side ways with the back rest on my left or right arm, leaning back. That ability to change sitting styles is what makes it good. Folding arm rests should be mandatory on all chairs.
I know that we have this thread routinely but what happens when refurbished Steelcase Leaps run out of stock unironically? There's only so many produced over time and everyone needs a reliable task chair eventually.
