Also, don’t fall for the marketing of the “gaming” chairs or any of those that look like racing seats. I had a maxnomic and it is horrible for long sitting sessions. Finally spent the money on a Herman Miller Mirra and I can sit for hours with no issues.
I think the best middle ground is refurbished. There’s a few good companies out there that do it, but I can only really attest to Crandall furniture’s quality. I bought a Steelcase Amia from them a year and a half ago and it’s made all the difference in my home office.
I have an Autonomous chair I got in 2020 after watching a JayzTwoCents vid. My wife and I both got one for about $400 or so each. I’d say it probably won’t still hold up after another 5 years but it’s miles ahead of the $90 chair it replaced. And my back still doesn’t hurt after sitting in it for 8-12 hours a day.

Herman Millers are Goated, though i will say their business practices are not the best anymore unfortunately. Though second hand, always go for it.

Ooh good stuff. I’ll need to look into that as well.
