Sometimes they're available second-hand. And they _are_ really, really, good.

If you are actually at home, I recommend a La-Z-Boy recliner chair with a sheepskin rug on it. I have a Bean Bag Lap Tray for the keyboard and mouse, and a 32 inch computer monitor and a couple of tables for drinks and food.
I bought one from staples online a few years back (leather 24hour operators chair). One slight limitation is that the shops and online shop are not actually the same business unit and don't carry the same stock. However the online outfit does have a try and return if not happy facility.
Indeed. I have a (now discontinued) IKEA chair which has performed very well for some years now. My first attempt was a different (even more expensive) model, which had a floating mechanism which couldn't be locked out. Even slacked fully off, my upper-body mass was too small to overcome the spring, and it was permanently trying to tip me off.
BTW, adjustable arms are worth having.

Awful bloody things.

I'm sitting on a blue one at the moment
It's around three years old and it's used almost daily for six plus hours a day with no sign of wear to the chair or my back.
I did think of this, the chair I used to have at work didn't have adjustable arms and it was extremely frustrating, I have now been given chair with no arms, still, at least I can get closer to the desk.
How does the back of the chair feel? It *looks* a bit thin? One of the problems I have with my current chair is that the back is hard plastic which feels cold and quite uncomfortable.
It looks like it's a similar style to the back of an Aeron, which is a fairly taut woven skin, that "gives" to the shape of your back, except on the Aeron, you also get the same on the seat (a distinct lack of fart muffling).
There were a lot of them in the recent auction of equipment and fittings from the BBC world service studios they made quite a bit of money each..
I do remember years ago there was a specialist chair manufacturer over in Northampton somewhere and they spent in those days, 25 odd more years ago, around a grand for a good office type chair for their studio operators.....
I bought an Ikea chair (can't remember which) for about 150 notes. The back has forward/back adjustment but no tilt so it's not at all confortable.
Following the advise given on here, I've had a look in the local Staples, quite a few nice chairs there, some better constructed than others. The one I liked most was the 'Guiseppe'; felt very comfortable and relatively well built. The only thing is the lack of arm rest adjustment.
I probably wouldn't pay the non-discounted £211 for it but at 33% off it's only £139 which is a bit more realistic.
They had some mesh backed chairs and I didn't like these at all.
Currys/PC World didn't have anything.
