Office chair

[MyneighbourisTotoro]

Hello everyone,

I have been trying to find a new office chair, I need a comfy chair (that stays comfy after a couple of months use) and back support.

I have been searching for months but the reviews always fall flat.

Does anyone know of a good chair under £100?

Thank you

Can you take a chair from your workplace? We bought a fancy new chair but I swapped it for a basic chair from the workplace, found this is much better on my body even though it doesn't look pretty

Hi, no I’m currently a stay at home mum, I’m a digital artist though so I need a comfortable chair as I can be sat there for hours in the evenings but my budget is tight.

The office chairs in our workplace cost £800 each to buy them personally so I doubt you'd get a good one for under £100.

Work will supply us with a chair, desk, monitor etc though, for free. We have to return them if we leave.

Mine is double your budget but very comfortable, from Costco.

@LaWench I can’t go over budget unfortunately but thank you.

@Justkeeppedaling I’m a stay at home mum, I don’t need an amazing chair but I need one that offers some comfort/support when I need to work on my pc.

There are quite a few websites that resell refurbished office stock for a lot less than full price.

In that case, I'd try FB marketplace or eBay for second hand stock.

I’ve got this from ikea. Back support isn’t the best (probably as you’d expect for £55) but it is really comfy to sit on

The IKEA flintan is also a contender, DH has this and loves it.

There are lots of places that sell second hand office furniture. I'd check them out if I were you.
Or IKEA.
But "buy cheap, buy twice"!

Hi I have an office chair, plum colour, swivel and ergonomic which I have used for over one year now, it's really great. I think it was round £80 - let me try to find it.

Found it - in blue is £84 (half price) www.officefurnitureonline.co.uk/skye-fabric-swivel-chair-supplied-with-castors-and-glides.html

If you can scrape another £20 the ikea langjfall is good and looks nice. You could add arms later if needed.
I also see various ones on Fb marketplace.

Thank you for all the suggestions everyone, I’ve been looking through ikea, I think I need to wait to get some extra cash together as I really need one with a head rest/high back. @Justkeeppedaling unfortunately I just don’t have the finances to invest in a decent chair, we live off one wage and carers allowance so all our finances go on bills and rent. Very much a Sam Vimes situation for us!

Have a look at reyooz, they have lots of chairs and stock changes daily.

My chair was about £40 from Viking at the start of lockdown. It has a mesh back, it’s comfy and still going strong.
