I badly need a new chair.
I put the thumbnail chair there just for fun. It’s called the Vantum and it’s ~$700. I don’t need a Cadillac chair. A Honda is more than adequate. I just don’t know what that’ll cost.
- What’s the absolute minimum you’d spend to get a Honda chair? $100? $200? More?
- What brands have the best reputations?
- What brands should be avoided?
- What questions am I forgetting to ask?

The cough backstory
The plain-old desk chair I bought just 14 months ago already has a serious crack. I noticed it today. I don’t think it can be repaired. Plus the crack will expand making the chair worthless. It’s just a question of how fast. Worst of all - could the chair collapse all-of-the-sudden sending me crashing to the floor?
Before I bought it I avoided the cheapest chairs. I spent a bit more - $80 - in hopes the damn chair would last at least a couple years. So much for that!
80 is still a “cheap because it’ll break” price, you probably need at least $200 into an office chair to last a few years, but obviously don’t pay any lifestyle scam shit like the gamer tax.
