Was surfing qoo and saw this . Is this the best bang for buck choice for chairs in the 100+ range?

Or ikea and vhive have better ones at around the same price range?

Ive been searching for a new chair recently too. But I wouldnt get one from qoo10. Can tell from the reviews the chair isn't that good and lasting quality.

Was using this chair since last year. Sit liao very spacious and comfy but does creak a little when leaning back. For the price can't complain much

"Gaming" chairs are gimmicks. Best chair is to get a full mesh ergonomic chair. I tried gaming chairs in non air con rooms and when the gaming seasions are intense, your sweat accumulated also intense.

there is no "gaming chair"

but to me the most comfy chair is a leather recliner.

i love a chair that is versatile, can recline like a recliner, is as comfy as a recliner for watching movies which can roll around like a boss

IMO, gaming chairs only suitable for air conditioned room. I bought the seat cushion from muji, comfy but will heat up after awhile. Need to stand and cool it off for about 5s then sit again.

Omega Elite is way overprice for a genuine leather chair.

Leather is expensive. If you all buy a full leather sofa chair before, you will know the cost of it.

Herman Miller is a designer brand with superb ergonomics. Different categories bro.

im sitting on one in office now. it feels exactly the same as my 200 ikea chair back home. My point is the chair helps yes, but really, the most important attribute to this whole comfort thing is down to:

1. your back and
2. your posture

See. nothing really much to do with the chair but alot to do with you. What makes the chairs great is how adjustable and well built it is.

I feel that the word ergonomics is a really overused word ever since Steve emphasized it in his products. The truth is most people in my office stuff back support/cushion onto their herman millers anyway.

799 for one chair, my boss multi millionaire also nv sit such chair.

well we all earn money to waste it somewhere. Most people waste it on cars and its associated accessories. Some waste it on 980 Tis SLI. Others waste it on getting that extra vibration from the speakers and yet more willwaste it on hangbags and makeup or that protein powder that supposedly makes their nipple look more taut when working out.

Whatever the hell it is, we earn money to waste it (or invest it. i'm not getting drawn into that). The only real question is do you get the value you paid good cash for
