Gaming/Desk Chair Recommendations

[instinct]

So I'm in the market for a nice(ish) Office chair for my little office at home. I game on the Desktop PC there and generally do some admin and other "work" stuff. Does anyone have any recommendations on where or what type of chairs to get? Not looking to spend more than 150 quid all in.

Cheers in advance!

just get a good offce chair. 'gaming' kit is like asking for anything for a wedding - it adds 50% on the price minimum for no real difference, except maybe dayglo stripes on the chair.

I've bought two second hand RH logic chairs for home office use and they're awesome. Brilliant build quality and very comfortable. They cost over a grand new but can be had for a lot less than that through gumtree, ebay, etc.

I'm definitely not fussed about it looking fancy and cool! A good office chair is perect.

I got a big fat leather office chair off Facebook marketplace for a tenner.

Don't be tempted by car seats made into "office chairs": they take up far more room than you might think, and are bastard heavy.

I've had several office/gaming chairs over the years, and you really do get what you pay for. Before long the seat cushion usually goes flat and it's like sitting on concrete, even on the "not-cheap" chairs claiming to be for 8+hr use. Most give me back ache before long. I can honestly say the chair I now have from Secretlabs is as good as they day I bought over a year ago, and I'm in it for work and gaming, anything up to 12 hours a day. (Yes, I need to get out more...)
They are expensive, but worth every penny if you have back problems or need to use for a long period of time. The other bonus is that as I am short, most chairs are designed with the average male height in mind, and aren't always a good fit. Secretlabs have a scaled down version for small peoples like myself. Not had backache since using this.

ATOM™ GT Premium Black Edition Carbon Fibre PC Office Gaming Chair with Upgraded Tilt & Base
Very comfy, solid and easy to put together. I had an issue with a castor...they sent out a new site FOC next day. Really pleased and not as expensive as the SecretLabs stuff!
