My office chair has been falling apart, and I need to find a new one that costs less than $100. I'm using it for about 7-8 hours daily, so I have a few questions about what to look for when buying a chair online: How tall should the chair be in relation to my height? Is it worth spending more for a chair that lasts longer? Are there any decent options available for under $100?

Honestly, you might struggle to find a durable, comfortable chair under $100. They often have poor ergonomics and can wear out quickly. If you can, save a little more for a 24/7 rated chair, which are super comfy and durable. You might find a used one that fits your budget.
Check out Facebook Marketplace for some great deals! You can often find budget chairs there, and also look for postings on deal sites like those for PC builds.
Thanks! I'll definitely check that out.
If you have a local Office Depot, they have chairs on display that you can try out. Everyone's comfort preferences are different, so finding one that fits you is key. You can actually find solid options under $300, don’t listen to the folks saying you need to shell out a grand for something like a Herman Miller.
I appreciate the tip! I'll see if there's a store near me.
Got it! How much do you think I'd need to save for a chair that lasts about a year and a half?
