I’ve been happy with my Ikea Markus. It was maybe $150 in the as-is section.

I’ve sat in Herman Miller Aerons at work for many years, and sitting on this all day while working remote has been great. No issues. I’ve had it 4 years now and still going strong. I’ve been quite happy esp considering the cost savings compared to the more “pro” brands.

Not specific to this chair, but I unscrewed the arm rests and find that it helps my posture a lot. With the arm rests attached I tended to lean on one side or the other and would type from an angle that strained my forearms and wrists. Took them off and the pain went away shortly after.

Also I keep the recliner disabled/locked (back stays in upright position) again, to help avoid my common sources of bad posture.
