Alright guys,

 

I am gonna go ahead and put this under peripherals, because it is just as important as a mouse or keyboard imo.  I am lookiing for a chair that I can play PC games in for incredibly extended periods of time.  I would prefer it to be under 100 (USD), but maybe under 150.  I would also like it to be super comfortable with somewhat, even if only slightly, cushioned arm rests.  It would be a super added bonus if it could completely recline like the Maxnomic Dominator from NeedForSeat.  Currently I play in a crappy chair with no arm rests and an uncomfortable wooden back, and have to bunch up with my legs on the chair to play CS:GO with any skill at all.

 

Thanks,

Chris

I currently own an Ikea Markus chair, love it for it's price. Got it for 6 months already, still no squeeking, deflated cushion or back pain so I'm quite happy.

The price was €80 in Belgium, not sure what it would cost in the US.

about 55 USD, and is the plastic piece behind the mesh of the lower back any good?  It looks like it would make things a bit uncomfortable leaning back.

It's not a plastic piece behind the mesh, it's a thick foam/cushion of some sort which I absolutely love. It gives that nice supporting feeling when actually leaning back.

And for my height, the placement of it is simply perfect.

Ikea. They make some superb things at the fraction of the cost of other companies, and yet still hold onto some pretty good quality. Still rocking a chair my mum got from Ikea 15 years ago. Still going strong, though it's not comfy anymore. 

What do they know of England, who only England know?

Use one of those race car bucket chairs. It will enhance your gaming 10 fold, and when you're sliding across the floor in your chair you can achieve a 0-60 time of 3.6 seconds.
