hello guys

Im on a hunt for a new "gaming" chair

I was thinking about the corsair t1 race or the t3 rush

What do you think about sparkfox? Cougar?

I live in Israel if it helps

What is the availability of IKEA like for you?
Because if it's possible, I would highly recommend the IKEA MARKUS. This chair has been serving me rather well for over 2 years and I am a pretty big person. Feels just as good as the Corsair T3 I tried. I prefer the Markus even, because the T3's shoulder pieces push me forward (I have broader shoulders than the chair is meant for).

 

But that just shows how personal chairs would be; what I dislike might be something you like! So I would highly recommend trying out some in stores. If possible of course..

im pretty slim so the shoulder issue shouldnt bother me but how is the lumbar support? i have back problems and its really important to me. and is the net still stretched? or is it loose after the time you had with it?

Herman Miller Aeron.

 

Mine is 19 years old and still good, the mesh seat and back are still good. I only just had to replace the gas cylinder a couple months ago. Every thing else works perfectly. It's almost like a new chair.

An Aeron would be cheaper in the long run. Some of the chairs you listed are $350 and you can get an Aeron from Amazon or ebay for around 500 to 600 and it will last 5 times as long, probably more.
