Swivel chair without wheels

I bought one of the only available chairs from argos at the start of lockdown, after we started to wfh at a night's notice. It looked relatively decent but within a month it was creaking, arms need retightening and it is just flimsy. It's also on wheels, which I have now realised is a right pain as they catch on the rug, and I usually end up wheeling toward the hallway when all i want to do is cross my legs in the other direction.

So I am after recommendations of a swivel chair, with no wheels. Needs to be swivel so I can get out of my corner easily. I would also like one that is relatively minimalist, not a bulky office chair, and I am not fussed if it is leather or upholstered.

Price wise, I'd like to say under £100( if it is doable!) I don't need anything grand, just a nice looking one that doesn't creek and or feel like it will crumble any day now.

I have seen a couple online, but I would rather try and get real recommendations first so I don't end up paying for a third chair in a few months time.

Thanks

I got this from John Lewis in the dusky pink. It was ££ but well worth it. So comfy and looks good. www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-partners-brooks-office-chair-charcoal/p4315220

That looks lovely, but it's out of stock which is a shame. It is pretty much what I am after though. I have signed up for the back in stock email, hopefully it won't take too long!

You can get cups to put the wheels in to stop the chair moving about.

Looks minimalist, on gliders not wheels, swivels and bang on your budget?

Ikea used to do a 'design your own chair'. You could choose the colour, arms/no arms, wheels/no wheels etc. Don't know if they still do it. They did have no wheels office chairs though when I looked a couple of weeks ago.
