Excuse me for not wanting to be ignored for more than a week just because i try to negotiate a price other than ~35% of a chair that i've been using for less than 48hours. I thought it was common courtesy to not ignore your customers when they pay for something and what they received do not work out for them and then actually try to come to an agreement. | ||

ideally, yes it should be an agreement when both parties are more or less guilty; but when it's you, it should be a courtesy on their part. | ||

I went to local stores to check out what they had to offer, and there's basically either cheap 100~euros chairs which back or armrests you can't adjust, which kind of sucks, or 300 euros chairs that didn't even look that good. So I figured I may as well buy a nice TL needforseat maxnomic one, but there are 3 models, and I have no idea what the difference is and it's pretty hard to tell from their website. So does anybody know the difference between the casual, pro, and comfort maxnomics? At that point I'd put the extra 50 or so bucks if it makes a difference. Also, are there better alternatives in that range or prices? From what I've seen, top office chairs exceed by far that budget, but maybe there are good models for around 300 euros. Thanks! Edit : nevermind I'm dumb as hell, I know what are the differences now, but I still would like to know about potential alternatives in the same price range :p | ||

I spend a lot of my free time sitting and because for some time i feel a slight tenseness in different regions of my back i decided it was time to look for a good/expensive office-chair. Although i did investigate before making my choice, my conclusion was( maybe i am wrong) that there is no real middle price/quality(200-400€) segment for office- chairs (from what i gathered most chairs that fit in the middle price segment still had asian fabricated "cheap" components, didn't fulfill any of the quality ergonomic norms of real office chairs, no extended warranty and all the other bonuses you get from the premium brand ones) I know this is no real help for someone(like me) that wants a middle class chair with appropriate quality. Personally, i didn't want to take any chances,so i went to a professional office retailer from a known brand not too far away, let myself be advised, did some sitting on different models etc. and finally customised my own chair. It was expensive but i think it was worth it for me. | ||

So...I feel like Maxnomic and DXRacer are on about the same level, but it would be nice to have the Maxnomic chair supporting TL too , obviously this Arozzi doesn't look as nice, but anyone have a better opinion on this? Here is a list of websites to look at them for yourself http://www.amazon.com/Cipher-CPA5001-Office-Racing-Leatherette/dp/B00AU6ZQVM - Cipher Auto http://www.amazon.com/EZ-Lounge-Racing-Office-Chair/dp/B00L8CL9KY - EZ Lounge (Both are similar in looks to DXRacer) http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias=garden&field-keywords=arozzi&sprefix=arozz,garden Arozzi gaming chair, they look really nice. Check them out guys, really nice, think I am just going to suck it up and get Cipher, they have good reviews, and I don't think I can afford a DXRacer chair, unless I got the junior size which I would probably fit into, but don't want it to be underwhelming.... Please i'd love to hear all input...I really need a new chair, my back is ****ed from sitting in this trash one im in . | ||

If you check out the closeups of their chairs (look at the pictures from the Assembly Guide on their website) they remind me of the Maxnomic vs No-Name tear down, in fact I have a feeling that the Arozzi is the no-name chair. I'd just get a Maxnomic or DxRacer chair if I were you. | ||

I bought the cheapest, fabric DXracer chair and can't say that I'm disappointed at all. I'm about 1.88M and weigh ~77KG, and it's pretty much perfect. I love that it's fabric and doesn't make me sweat like a maniac, and doesn't sink in as much as a €150 chair would. Any DXracer chair will probably do you very good. | ||

IKEA Markus actually still good? Its 175 euros and it doesnt have much customization, but anything that lets me sit properly and forces me to not crouch my head forward like a hunchback would be great. | ||

I should note that I have not personally tried out the Embody chair. There are some reviews online that prefer it over the Aeron but it's also quite a bit more expensive. Edit: All these chairs should solve your back problem. | ||

I'm looking to buy a chair at 300 euros and with amazing lumbar support as my lower-back is just dying IKEA Markus actually still good? Its 175 euros and it doesnt have much customization, but anything that lets me sit properly and forces me to not crouch my head forward like a hunchback would be great. I'm also looking to buy a new chair here in Denmark. I'm 192cm and 90kg average build. I've had the IKEA Markus for like 6 years now, and I really like it. It's good for a budget option, but now I'm looking for a more high quality chair that has more adjustments. The Markus greatest flaw, in my opinion, is that you can't tilt the seat back further than around 30-40º, which is fine for when you are working or playing, but if you want to really relax and watch something leaned back and chilled, it doesn't quite cut it. However, I love the high back/head support and the chair is super sturdy, very comfortable with a soft seat that hasn't degraded at all in all the years I've used it. For the price, the chair is absolutely fantastic. I highly recommend it. I've pre-ordered a NeedforSeat Maxnomic Classic Office (369€) in case I decide I want it. According to the site they will restock around early-mid February. But in the meantime I will keep an open mind to what else is out there. I want the best chair I can get, but at the same time I feel like spending more than 500€ is a little crazy. I've read through the thread post on page 1, and checked out the different chairs, but very few of them seem to have head support, which is definitely a requirement for me. Can anyone, from their personal experience, recommend a chair that is as comfortable as the Herman Miller Embody, but also supports my tall back and my head and doesn't cost more than 500€? | ||

You don't like the Aeron? You can get a head rest for it. | ||
