Ergonomic Office Chair

barnesy

Hey guys,

I am looking for a new office chair as the one I am using at the moment sucks. I was thinking of getting one of those ergonomic chairs but I don't really know what to go for, they all seem to have so many little adjustable handles etc lol

I was just wondering if any of you could recommend one that you use, or suggest what type of style etc would be good for posture?

I have like a £100 - £150 budget

Thanks in advance

Somepeople like to use a standing desk option and one of those balance balls.

Not that you can but if you wanted to:
I would use something like this cause I'm on a health kick this year, also would raise the desk part higher.

His budget won't quite allow for a treadmill desk...

hahaha I can just imagine doing Interval Sculpting Training on one of those treadmill desks. If only they had a bike desks then I could bring my PC to aerobiking

Hi,

For your budget, there is no many choice for the ergonomic office chair, but you can buy a mesh office chair. It is also great.

I recommend Standing desk, with a bar stool.

I've had one at work for a couple of years now. It's awesome.

For $150 your best bet is to walk in to an Office Depot and sit on the chairs in your budget that you find comfortable and get it.

Full ergonomics and 'economical' budgets do not mix.

Bed and office chair are two things I wouldn't go too cheap on as both tend to last for many years and you'll be spending great amounts of time on them.
I bought a viasit linea chair for roughly 500,- € and wouldn't recommend it. It can't lock in every position but only in a few preset positions. It drove me crazy that they all where just a little bit off from how I felt like sitting and I ended up going back to a cheap 15 years old ikea chair.
I will try the Hag Capisco Puls next.

Does anyone here have some experience with that model? How's it working out for you?

Watch Craigslist for a Steelcase Leap or Herman Miller Aeron. I have a Leap at home and I think I paid $75 for it.

I recommend you should try Ergonomic Office Chair Star H2000, Its frame made of powder-coating aluminium, Upholstery is elastomeric Fabric. There is the istinctive integrated headrest ergonomically designed for healthy sitting and wellbeing.

JamesTKirk

Thanks for all the messages, I completely forgot about this thread :O

I ended up buying this in the end -

I can't fault it as it's lumbar support is fantastic. It seems to have gone up in price though as I managed to get it for £150 2 years ago

Yeah me neither, but since I'm currently looking for a new chair it's relevant to me.
No one got any experience with the Hag Capisco / Capisco Puls?


Also did anyone notice that peterle, who necroed the thread, seems to have created the account only for this? Are you a spambot?
