    Also got a markus, rubber arms + material seat. From what I've experienced artificial leather disintegrates after a few years.

    do NOT buy gaming chairs, do NOT buy dx racers, my 20$ chair from target was infinitely more comfortable and usable and lasted longer than a shitty dx racer.
    its a shit meme of a chair thats sold to you by youtubers because they get a cut of the profits, please get a herman miller if you're trying to invest hundreds in a shitty "gaming" chair

    gaming toothpaste too??
    gaming toiletpaper??
    gaming milk??

    and again, do NOT buy any chairs that look like they came out of a racing cockpit because they are a meme and a waste of money

    Yup. Like, again, BILLIONS of dollars of R&D have been spent on furniture. Honest-to-god, real office chairs are by far the best thing for your body, if you're going to be sitting. Race car chairs are not meant to be comfortable, they're not meant to provide lumbar support, they are not meant to be sat in for hours and hours; they are meant to be lightweight and keep u in ur damn seat. Unless you're planning on strapping rockets to your DXRacer, it's literally a just a meme meant to sell chairs to gullible people.

    Go on eBay, buy a used Steelcase Leap V2. You can get one for like ~$300 or less. If you're the kind of person who is afraid of used furniture, suck it up and just steam clean it when u get it.

    Also, cc @Dane, @Riley - need the steelcase vouches

    100% agree with Omar. I'm currently sitting in a Steelcase Leap V2 and it's the best chair I've used. I bought it online (used) through MadisonSeating when they had a decent sale going on, but they can be pretty pricey depending on stock / sales, so look on ebay / facebook marketplace / etc first.

    I've also got an Ikea JÄRVFJÄLLET (upgraded markus) in the next room and it's quite nice as well while being significantly cheaper. The Herman Miller Aeron is another chair that people will recommend (and it's amazing, comparable to the leap), but it can be hit or miss for some people due to the mesh.
