I'm on the hunt for a new chair for my PC gaming sessions, but I'm overwhelmed by all the options out there. I'm specifically looking for a comfortable and durable ergonomic chair priced at $150 or less. I've seen some mentions of Sihoo chairs, but I'm not sure which one would be the best choice. For reference, I'm about 180cm tall and weigh 70kg. Thanks for any recommendations!

Staples actually has some pretty decent chairs if you’re looking at that price point. I’ve heard good things about models like the Dexley or Sorina—someone I know loves theirs! Might be worth checking out if you can find them.
I snagged a cheap office chair from Goodwill and just added a cushion. It’s been pretty comfy for gaming, and it didn't break the bank! Sometimes, you just gotta get creative!
IKEA has some good options without the "gamer" label which can be a red flag for comfort. Don't skimp on your chair—trust me, as someone who does 8-10 hour shifts followed by gaming, you want something that supports your back and neck well. Invest in comfort; it'll pay off in the long run!
Exactly! I used to have a gaming chair and it was awful. Never looking back!
You should definitely check out IKEA's Markus chair. I’ve had mine for a decade before upgrading, and it was really comfortable! Just make sure it's in stock since sometimes they fly off the shelves. But if you’re looking for longevity, it's a solid option. Just watch out—it might not fit your budget if you go for some of their higher-end models.
I just looked it up, but it seems like the Markus is around $300 now—way over budget! I guess I’ll keep searching.
Ugh, I thought I could find a deal too. Should’ve guessed IKEA might be pricier these days.
Absolutely! A good chair makes all the difference. I've learned that the hard way with my old chair.
