KupoBitches Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 I have done some Googling myself but haven't had time to scan all of the ads as I usually do. If anyone sees or hears about any good deals on gaming chairs for this upcoming Black Friday and Cyber Monday, please let me know. Thanks!

cusideabelincoln Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 I'm looking for a new chair too. But I really have no idea what the build quality difference is between a $100 chair and a $200 one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Are you talking about the racer-type of gaming chair? Can't speak from experience, but a lot of people say just to get a nice office chair. I have seen many people complain about the armrests. Something like they are too thin and too hard.

This Gamer chairs are $50 chairs with $250 idiot tax . Buy a nice office chair instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KupoBitches Posted November 21, 2019 Author Share Posted November 21, 2019 @Bacon @SimpleG Yea, I'm not in love with the idea of some crazy looking racer chair and I know office chairs are the best bet. Some of the gamer chairs are wonderful though and getting a good deal on one might push me over the edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutSurgen Posted November 21, 2019 Share Posted November 21, 2019 Get whatever makes you feel comfortable and suits your personal aesthetic. 1) A good office chair is not $50 2) If you're looking for a budget chair, there are gaming chairs in a similar price range to office chairs. 3) Not all gaming chairs are over the top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got mine at a yard sale for $2. Guy didn't think it was worth anything because the seat had a tear in it. It was the best deal I've seen since the recliner I got from the dumpster in college.

Commissar SFLUFAN Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 @KupoBitches @skillzdadirecta @cusideabelincoln @Rodimus Don't hesitate to look into refurbished high-end office chairs like Aerons by Herman Miller. They're not "cheap" but not nearly as expensive as buying them new and they are vastly better than gaming chairs or cheap-ass office chairs from Staples/Office Depot. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I love Aerons... you can tell the quality of an edit suite by the chairs they have. Aerons are a staple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cusideabelincoln Posted November 25, 2019 Share Posted November 25, 2019 Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeew, those chairs are a little out of my budget right now. I'll definitely consider them the next time, but I just found a good enough chair on clearance at Staples. Can't beat getting a $268 chair for $62... right? And the luck of it all was I sat in every single chair they had available and this one ended up being the perfect size for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have an Aeron at work and I'd definitely buy a refurbished one for home if the headrest attachment weren't sold separately (the refurb is already stretching the budget and adding the headrest attachment just pushes it past what I'm willing to spend). I spend too much time leaning back in my chair to buy one that can't support my head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
