Looking for advice on Office/Gaming Chair

[Lotus]

I am 6' 2" (188cm), and am looking for a good office/gaming chair in the sub $100 price bracket. I am not heavy (180 lbs, so for my height I'm actually skinny/lean), but due to my frame I absolutely do NOT want a chair with the gaming style rounded-ness near the top that forces your shoulders forwards and inwards. This isn't a chair for a car where I have to worry about lateral G forces. I already have a "chair" with lateral support, but it's in my car. honestly, if I could find a way to get a NA Miata seat into my house and on rollers, I'd do it in a heartbeat since while having great lateral support, it doesn't succumb to that stupid rounded top.

 

See this chair? the bottom lateral supports I'm okay with since I'm skinny. The top wings? I will not stand for. I won't get a chair with those.

 

This makes me lean towards a regular office chair which I'm okay with, but I figured I should get suggestions first because I don't want to buy a chair and then two months later regret it.

i use a cheap standard office chair with alot of pillows... pillows > gaming chairs (◑‿◐)

 

use those super soft fluffy pillows and ooo ur arm rests are heaven

I would just avoid all those "gaming chairs" with fancy colors and racing car look. You can get better quality office chairs for the same price range that are far more comfortable.

u can even make a wooden chair thats square shaped more comfortable then a *gaming chair*... pillows work for any kind of shitty chair(and good ones) hahahaha

As I said, I am looking at office chairs right now but am open to suggestions. That's also why I put Office first in the title.

I bought an office chair from staples, and it gets the job done.
You can get a really good office chair for a quarter of the price of a "gaming" chair.
I'm 6'2" 160lb, and mine works awesome for my height, I can't stand those wrap around style chairs.
Just go to your local office supply store when they're having a sale, and look like a nut testing the display chairs lol

I've got the same problem. Except I'm 6'9" and 125kg. So I've an athletic build but tall and heavy.

I too have settled for a wooden chair with a cushion. As chairs with moving parts I tend to break the tilting mechanism so that I'm always in a recline
