Dempf, do gaming w Good chair that is *affordable* ?

Want to drop some info here, not related to your question since it’s still out of your price range, but just for others who might be browsing, since I see HM chairs come up a lot in this thread and the other one.

A lot of these fancy ergo chairs work similar to other furniture and use a network of dealers. This is important, because dealers often sell for way less than MSRP, especially when they’re buying for clients making big offers for office buildings buildouts. Some dealers can get you a great price by basically adding your chair to a big order for another client. I wanted a HM Embody and talked to 3 dealers in my area. One of them was able to get me the chair for about $1000, and this was also customized with the fabric that I wanted. Really shows the huge markup that MSRP is on this kind of item. Dealers are sometimes also willing to give you a loaner so you can try the chair at home before you buy.

I have a used Haworth Zody chair I found on eBay, have had it for going on eight years now and recommend it greatly. They’re around $175-250 used.

Seems like you have a lot of good suggestions already, but more couldn’t hurt.

I bought the following chairs (also from Staples coincidently) in 2022, and both have been great, but it looks like they’ve gone up in price.

TempurPedic 6400 Fabric Computer and Desk Chair Black TP6400BLK - $279.99 at time of purchase

TempurPedic Mesh Back Fabric Computer and Desk Chair Black TP6450BLKMB - 299.99 at time of purchase

Regardless of what chair you end up deciding on, the put it in your cart and wait a few days a trick is always helpful, and I would definitely recommend googling coupons for wherever you purchase it from.

Good luck!

If you’re in the US, the Workpro line from Office Depot are pretty good. I picked up the Momentum for about $260 during a sale.

PM_me_trebuchets,

I might look into that, thanks!

Autonomous makes some nice chairs that are in your price range

PM_me_trebuchets,

Thank you!!!

Dezvous,

I personally have had the ErgoChair Plus with the naked black TPE (No cushion) for the past 5(?) years and it’s been holding up great.

Dempf,

Autonomous has really good marketing and sells a really cheap chair that they probably buy for $80 at an insane markup. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not too terrible. I’ve sat in one before, and it’s certainly better than those stupid “gamer” chairs, but please understand what you are buying.

If you are considering them, tbh I would just go directly to a seller on Alibaba like:

Personally if I were you, I would look at buying a used Steelcase Leap. I bought one in leather in 2015 for $430 including shipping off eBay. Bought another one from a local dealer that had a ton from an office closeout and paid like $300. I’m looking on eBay right now and seeing pretty similar prices for used and refurbs.

Factorio runs pretty well on my old laptop, but the bigger your setup gets, the more CPU cycles it takes. YMMV.

Integrated graphics have improved massively so what are we talking? 5600G or HD 630 can play GTA V for example.

It’s been a few years, so I’m replaying the Ace Attorney games and enjoying myself.

It sucks but unfortunately I will still pay that price

Subnautica and Raft are my go-to relaxed-fuzzy-happy games. Being able to do things at my own pace and just noodle around with whatever I feel like is nice.

I just picked up some games from Humble Bundle that I’m going to play while waiting for Unicorn Overlord to release. I think I’ll start on Loop Hero first, but some of the other games in the bundle look interesting too.

The Skull and Bones beta motivated me to start a second playthrough of Assassin’s Creed Black Flag, 10 years after my first one. Having a blast, it’s honestly even better than I remembered and runs great on the Steam Deck.

Scrath,

I saw some skull and bones vs ac black flag comparison videos and am now getting mildly interested in the game as well
