Steelcase Leap is definitely what I would recommend, sturdy and mobile.. Comfy too!

Really like the look of the Leap but mixed reviews about the seat; some say it's comfortable, some say it's hard / too firm.
Do you need a pole? I ask because your logical leaps are becoming logical vaults and your mental gymnastics are Olympic standard.

if you are able to build simple things. Buy a old Car Seat and build a underground for it that the hight fits you. GG, comfort and Style far beyond this usual crap.

And ofc its so cheap. scrapyard sell them cheap, all you need is some wood, and clean it

As long as it doesn't end up like a DXRacer chair. So tired of the hyped "Dr. Dre ish" chairs. It doesn't make any sense to why they are supposed to be so good for you. The only thing I could say is that they got a lot of cushion.

Chair wise, you cant beat the rocker brand haha. My friend has This Rocker Chair in his living room to play GT5 and other games with. Felt like a massage chair to me when i sat on it haha.

The car seat idea is a pretty good one. I think you could find a really comfortable seat. Sometimes they are in really great shape at a junk yard. I also think the Rocker Chairs look great. They seem as if they would really make it easy to move around to play games. Yet, they also look very cozy. I like to be comfortable.

So after googling around for a bit I found a seller for used chairs here in Germany. I have the choice between a Herman Miller Aeron with Pellicle and height-adjustable armrests for around 600€, a fully loaded Herman Miller Mirra for 450€ and a Steelcase Leap v2 fully loaded for 400€. Judging from skyR's praise I'm almost set for the Leap, especially since it's even cheaper than the rest, problem is I don't have a way to test it beforehand, since all the Steelcase-dealers in my area don't have it in stock.

I've tried both Herman Millers and liked them a lot, very comfortable and adjustable plus I like the design better than the Leap's. Then again, 200€ just for the design seems a bit steep. Has anyone compared the Millers against the Leap directly and is able to point out the key differences between them? The Aeron and Mirra were both size B, and as far as I can tell there is only one size for the Leap, right?

would you mind sharing info on the seller you found? currently i'm also torn between aeron, mirra and leap. i like the seat depth adjustment on the leap so i'm probably gonna go for that. wanted the aeron/mirra because of the mesh.

They look great, but look even greater in person and feels like a big big massage chair.

Mesh is very important imo. I doubt it will be cold inside a person's home that is gaming or studying. Rather the opposite.

I was also looking at a fully loaded Leap V2 (Well, it has everything except headrest) but I can't try them anywhere locally either and I'm not sure if it'd be suitable for someone around 6'2 and about 210lbs.

It would be very cool if there were headrests for them too. Awesome chair already. But same as you. I feel I need to see it or at least try it to be able to spend this kind of money.

Leaps have optional headrest.

If you're in Europe, you probably shouldn't tunnel vision too heavily into the Steelcase Leap as you tend to have plenty of other options too from Klober, HAG, Okamura, etc.

The Leap was more appealing because I can get it for £200 used.

I've had my Dxracer for over a month now and I absolutely love it. I don't feel the chair anymore :D

I forgot that you're buying used. Leap's backrest is only 24" in height so it may not be all that comfortable for a tall individual.

Klober, HAG, Okamura ? I am going to look into that before I do anything rush.

Yeah, I'm finding it difficult to try and find something that will be suitable for £200, whether it be used or new.

Can someone who has the DXracer tell me how the rocking is in it because I'm often rocking.
