Does anyone have experience with an RH 400? I am looking at a used one for ~280 euros with head and arm wrests.

Go on Craig's list and find a used Aeron, Leap, Think, or Embody. That's the way to get the most out of $300.I had to pay a bit more than $300 for my Aeron but you might get lucky.

Any decent chairs with easily removable armrests? Like being able to somehow take them off the chair and pop them back in in at most under a minute? I use the same chair for computer stuff and keyboarding, and I thrash around like a mofo for the latter. But I'd still want armrests for computer stuff and working in general.

I wish it were that easy, but there's no real way to do that. I have to leave home for work and sprays are either minimally effective, can damage fabrics or have an off putting odor.
The solution I'm thinking of is to go for a leather chair so that there's no cloth surface to rip - more expensive, but easier to clean and maintain imo and probably worth it in the end. Has anyone gotten the Steel case Leap in Leather that can speak to it? That's the one I'm looking at currently.

So i have decided to buy the herman miller - embody.
Now either through test seating it first or not - I will still most likely buy it anyhow.

1. Anyone know the size measurements of it? So i know it can fit into the car. Or else i have to order it.
Will get information on monday either way. Asking so i can perhaps get it sooner.


2. Any "recommendations" on it? Color and what kind of wheels etc?
I know its hard to do since its about what kind of floor one have or how kind of person it is but perhaps there is a standard way of the chair or something?
Appreciate any tips that might be helpful since i am set on that chair.

Thinking of purchasing a Herman Miller Sayle, has anyone bought this before and can give any input on whether or not it stacks up with any of the other Herman Miller chairs mentioned in this thread?

I and my fiancee are moving into a new place.

We currently have two old computer chairs we got after a government building closed down near our home in Ottawa.

They are alright, but they've started to really show their age. The arm rests wobble, they don't hold their height and like to drop randomly, the padding is wearing out and the felt is starting to tear.

So we are looking into possible new chairs, but we're on a tight budget. Steph really likes the 100$ Ikea Malkolm chairs (that have been renamed to Millberget.

We really don't have 300 or 400 dollars to invest into chairs x2 since we need some other furniture for our new place.

Any suggestions on cheaper but quality comfortable chairs to get us through the next few years? I use my chair a lot when I'm not on contract and doing content work or studying at night.

So any ideas? I'm in Canada and want to try to keep around 100 if at all possible. We need are also buying new computer desks, a kitchen table and chairs, etc. Leaving a bachelor studio for a 1 bed so we actually have some space now for a kitchen table, bedside tables, bookshelf etc. rather than just stacking boxes with things in them everywhere.

The IKEA Markus is also an option. Steph says she doesn't like it, and she'll probably get the millberget. She says the markus is too soft in its tilt back and that it actually has a very stiff back that isn't comfortable.

If I could afford one, I would buy the Aeron, as I used one at my old Federal government job. But sadly, I don't have the money for it. I know its an investment, I get it, but I don't have the straight capital to put into it. I have student loans and bills to pay while working contracts off and on through a temp agency atm. So all my money goes to paying down debt vs investing in a chair. The little I do squirrel away monthly is to pay for a pc upgrade by next year or late this.

so please don't tell me that there are better chairs. I know there are. I just can't invest in them right now which is why I want something comfortable but budget so I can get a nice chair in 5 or 6 years when I have the money to invest in one.

Alternate:

AmazonBasics Mid-Back Mesh Chair

Has really good reviews online and apparently very comfortable and ergonomic for the price (only 89 CAD)

in office chairs, there are three sizes - A, B, and C. If you choose the wrong size you will hate it, if you choose the right size you will love it.

the best chair to get is the Haworth MHM075424. It rolls & is dependable & comfortable for desktop computer usage on a daily basis for a few hours a day

Okay so I need a chair for studying and gaming with, however, I obviously can't exactly test anything out due to the crisis. How do I figure out which chair will most likely be right for me?

Edit: budget is flexible. Would prefer to spend less than $400 though.. Using stimulus check partially towards this.

This one seems to be incredibly highly ranked, and for only $164, fwiw: https://www.amazon.com/GTRACING-Computer-Ergonomic-Backrest-Adjustment/dp/B01N2RJ0HI/ref=redir_mobile_desktop?ie=UTF8&aaxitk=eN-KFuSPrFCL4On8XRnEOg&hsa_cr_id=3337737630601&ref_=sbx_be_s_sparkle_asin_0&th=1

I'm in the process of buying a house right now, and after the move is complete, I'll be buying a gaming chair... leaning towards the one above.
