I'm in the same camp. Most anything at Staples <$150 is a waste. I've been through 4 of those chairs in the last 4 years and they all have bottomed out (butt pretty much sits on top of the metal support/pneumatic lifter) within 8 months of 4 hr per day usage.

That's because you're sitting on a block of polyurethane foam. Get something with springs or air.

Definitely sit in whatever you're looking at before you buy it though.
Or a chair that I could sit in for several hours on end without feeling like ripping my spine out so I can massage away its pain.Originally posted by: Tiamat
Most chairs feel alright when you sit in it for 30 minutes at the store. What I really want is a chair that can last years without bottoming, but I cant test a chair in staples for that long ;p
Rubycon, any suggestions?

Make friends with an architect or designer. Designer discounts run 40-75% off stuff from humanscale, herman miller, etc. it's tough to beat $300 for a freedomchair.

My aeron has lasted several years now. The only damage is what it did to my desk when I accidentally bumped it. It also feels good for sitting 5+ hours in it.

Last time we had this thread, people were talking about some pretty affordable used ones.
