Any sales going on for a chair? After reading the thread I became even more unsure about what I really want. I guess I just want one that looks good and doesn't suck. I'm looking to spend under $100 but am willing to shell out for a proper deal.

I'm 5'6 and skinny. I want it to tilt and adjust (the basics). I've never experienced a luxury chair so any bargain is good for me. Thanks, team.

Madison Seating is currently having a sale. All the chairs are dirt cheap but keep in mind they are not authorized dealers so there is no warranty, asides from the warranty provided by Madison Seating themselves. Also keep in mind that the retailer has very poor reviews.

Is PU-leather or fabric generally preferred for lower-end chairs like DX-racer or other less ''luxurious'' brands? I might want to try a DXracer and the fabric chairs are quite a bit cheaper and probably don't sweat as much as PU-leather does, right?

I purchased a DXRacer Smooth Chief - however the chair doesn't recline when I lean back, I have it unlocked and it does lean back when I pull the lever to adjust it however it doesn't do the thing office chairs usually and let you control it with your back just by leaning. Is this normal or did I mess up building it.

I kinda need some feed back on the MaxNomic chairs, or even the DXRacers since they are similar.

Are they worth the price tag? Comfortable? Like does it get hot and stuff because SoCal area isn't known for being cold

Hey guys, quick question.

I'm currently considering 2 main chairs, and DX Racer on the side.

This is the first (360, on sale for 305):
http://www.officedepot.com/a/products/130313/Realspace-PRO-Quantum-9000-Series-Mid/

This is the second (400, on sale for 330):
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00GXW3YJ8/ref=s9_simh_gw_p201_d0_i1?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=040MEGSR6GHBWTCCBJTD&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1688200382&pf_rd_i=507846

And the third option is DXRacer (300 ish).
What's the word on them? Is it just like Beats, all flash for an okay but overpriced product?

And which of the two above^^ would you recommend, vs DX Racer? Please PM me if you have anything detailed to say.

Thanks!
The game is balanced. We just suck.

I currently use a Salli saddle chair with a height adjustable desk (you sit much higher on it), and recommend it highly.I have tried a Markus, Leap and an Aeron, and the Salli is way better. I can sit upright effortlessly without a backrest for as long as I need. I wont get into how saddle chairs work, but can say that in my experience; that is, after going through a long period of buying/ trying/reselling ergonomic chairs, the only thing that has actually alleviated my issues has been this saddle chair/sit stand desk(which I found used luckily).

I use the "Salli Sway" which is the budget version of the Salli Swing, which is less than 1000$.

Does anyone have any experience with those guys?
I'm reading some mixed reviews online. They claim they're selling "open box" chairs but some say they repaint used chairs.

I would like to buy an office chair that costs less than 400 euros. Is DXRacer my only choice? Can anyone suggest me other alternatives that might be better.

I don't wont to buy second hand and the high-end models are out of my reach. It seems to me that DXRacer is at least better than what I have right now, but I would like to hear suggestions from others. If there is a chair, far better than DXRacer close to 400 euros, please, suggest me that too. Tank you in advance.

Might not be the best bang for €400, but I managed to get a DXracer F4 (or something), a chair with fabric instead of faux leather because of sweating (and cheaper). so far I love it. Very sturdy, seems like it won't sink in too easily, adjustable arm rests and you can turn it back to relax aswell. I liek it and it was a good investment for me for the price, definitely recommend them. I'm currently 83KG and 1M88CM and it's completely fine for me. Top of my head does reach the top of the chair but with the cushion in place, no problem.

They're built like car chairs, so obviously it doesn't. I actually like it better this way, discourages slouching (which is what they done it for.)

I have a new one, a needforseat chair. I am very impressed but one thing it really disturbs me. Since I (can!) sit (very) healthy I do fart a lot. What is this? A Sign that I sat (very) unhealthy before?

You wont find a cheaper saddle type chair that has the gap in the middle. You could try and find a used Hag Capisco. They do not have the gap, but get very positive reviews.

Guys, don't do the same mistake as me and do yourself a favor, do not buy dxracer chairs.

Their customer service if you ever run into a problem with the chair is absolute trash.

I'll give more explanations if someone wants me to but just do yourself a favor and go see one of their competitors instead of buying from them, you'll save yourself a lot of trouble, also the chairs while they're nice, they're probably not anywhere worth their pricetag of $425-500, the only reason they're asking this much is because of all the sponsoring they're doing, do not fall into that trap like i did.
