Default Computer Chairs

Just looking for a little advice/recommendations from you guys.

Basically looking for a comfortable, well made computer chair. I spend a fair amount of time at my PC so I am looking for something fairly decent, although not too expensive.

The chair will be used in a room that has real wood floors - so quite obviously I dont want to damage these.

Chair must have adjustable height, i am not too keen on leather or leather effect (but i would not rule it out).

Any recommedations

Staples near you?

They have a good range to try. Check on line but try before you buy. Get protective mat for floor (Viking?) or use carpet. Mostly height adjustable. Reasonable ones circa £100 upwards. dl

I was going to say Staples as well............at the back of our store there's quite a big selection and often a few "manager's specials" going cheap.

They do seem to be a hell of a lot of wonga for chair LOL

Great chair, even considered buying one for work as the piece of wonky garbage I have to sit on is not fit for purpose.

Does the job. Chrome legs and arms, cream leather, tilt and pneumatic height adjust. The chairs my gaffer paid £300 a piece for are long in the skip compared to my bargain basement one

+1. Got my computer chair for £25 delivered off interweb. A £300+ chair is not going to be 8 times more comfortable than the one I have now
