I'm Looking for a good office chair.

Thanks! Found a good price for a Steelcase Amia.

Steelcase. They make good office chairs that you can get used for decent money.

I've done some shopping and I too would recommend a Steelcase. I have one in the office and want to get one for home - I find everything at Staples and other home office stores just comes close, whereas this one is wildly adjustable (I'm tall and need all the help I can get).

My vote as well. I got a series 2 around 3 years ago now and it's the best chair I've had. I work from home and spend most my free time on a machine so I'm sitting like 10+ hours a day in this and it's still going strong. My back hurts less, my hips hurt less, just a good sturdy chair

Edit to add: My spouse actually does not like these chairs because they're super uncomfortable to sit in with bad posture. That's part of why I like mine because I'm basically forced to use good posture. So if you need a chair that lets you sit like a gremlin a series 2 might not work well

Does yours have a million adjustments? I've been using Steelcase Leaps for a while and it seems like you could tune it to make sitting with bad posture comfortable.

Mine does not have all that many adjustments. Some good armrest maneuverability, lumbar support height, amount of resistance when leaning back, and of course the actual chair height
