Help me find a nice wooden office chair

6 replies

I've been WFH full time since March last year and have a lovely desk but still haven't bought a chair. I've been using a dining chair.

I would like a new chair that is both supportive but also looks nice and can be repurposed in the house. I have in mind a wooden chair as wheels can be awkward on carpet and I'm thinking the chair will either be used by DH (he also WFH) or maybe just in the bedroom or nursery later (I am due to go on mat leave in the summer). Alternatively I may just buy two chairs (one for me and one for DH).

I probably do need more back support!

Budget is around £200 but flexible. Obviously if I can get one for less then great!

TIA

I have ordered this ercol chair. It's elegant and could, as you say, be repurposed elsewhere in the house. I bought it from a different site, after searching around, for £250.

@midsomermurderess This is nice. I wonder if it comes in other colours as I had in mind an oak colour. Do you find it comfy and supportive?

I think that's the only colour. The chair hasn't been delivered yet so I just hope it will be comfortable. There are some nice choices here too

I am tempted by these but wondering would they be rubbish for the price / not supportive enough

I use a balance ball, as it keeps me moving and keeps away low back pain...

Can you sit on a balance ball for long periods and be comfortable?
