ok guys i have had enough pain with this present chair of mine and i am looking to buy a very good ergonomic and comfortable chair for my pc .. please suggest some good stuff with pics n prices n links if possible. thanks in advance.

ps : suggest stuff with affordable pricing and not those over the top models.
 
i was looking for some first hand suggestions .... i am having terrible aches these days on my wrists n shoulders .. thats why i wanna change my whole setup .. will be getting a new mouse , new mouse pad and a new chair to start with.
 
A few years back a friend got me a real fancy chair - cost 5000/- and they wanted me to have an Annual Maintenance Contract for 1500/- for the CHAIR !!! I laughed so much that I fell out of the chair and sold it fast. It was one of those chairs which had levers all over the place.

Seriously if you want a good chair check out the Godrej chairs they have a range of chairs in a wide price range. Find one that fits your pocket.
 
i dont have a chair ATM :P (Red {NO Chair}).....
im using a wooden stool which i feel is better than most chairs

well he himself sits on epty boxes of cpus, mobos and gfx cards that he bought so i dont think he'll be able to help u much with it :P
 
LOL- you guys love bashing my pal, Switch!!:hap5:

He not only helped me a lot with my config but also helped me decide on the type of chair i needed!!:ohyeah:

Its called synchrotilt- where Goddamn everything is adjustable!!:)

With my prob with moving around, i just change a few settings and i can relax in between work on pc!! so no need to go back to bed to lie down for a while!!:hap2:

Thank you Switch- I just returned my local synchrotilt chair coz they didn't customise it as per my instructions!! so i am now going through HOF range and will be checking Godrej and featherlite to see if anything almost matches my requirements with some room for further customisation!!
Thanks,once more!! AAooo!!:hap2:
 
@Mohit- Nowadays, chairs are available at very cheap prices too and obviously their quality might not be top notch but they r quite usable too!!:)

Infact, you get chairs from 1500 to 15000 or higher, in most varieties-
low back, medium back, full back/full height.

Then you got to thinkof manual height fix or gas lift.

Then, plain push back, push back with locking, centre tilt, knee tilt, synchro tilt, etc.

Fibre constrution as in plastic, MS, casting, stainless steel construction.

Adjustable or fixed armrest.

headrest.

And god knows what??

quality of castors is paramount for me coz i seen most chairs giving away at castors or the castor mount or casting!!

With most manufs bringing in malaysian/taiwanese/chinese/korean chairs and adjust mechanism for imported/assembled products or their manufactured products, cheap as well as inexpensive options are available today!!

I saw 3 almost identical chairs by 3 manufs- they costed 4500/-, 6500/-,7400/- respectively. The first two were local manufs and the last one is a new brand. i am still undecided on which one to go for!!:S

Every dealer i spoke to tried to push their product saying their quality is good and they give warranty and Godrej and Featherlite range is extremely expensive!!:rofl:

But Godrej and Featherlite are true ergonomically designed chairs and i will have to check prices myself before i write them off and settle for less expensive options!!:cool2:

Please mention what your requirements are and maybe i could suggest something!! :cool2:

AFAIK, Best person is Switch coz he's a Big Dealer in furniture!!:hap2:

And best of all, walk into stores of as many brands/manuf you can and try out all!! Adjust to your height and sit and pick one that feels best!!:P

Sometimes, the simpler ones work better than the multi-adjust ones!!;)

The one my dealer, who happens to be a pals pal, sent was a synchrotilt but i could barely sit on it for 1hr!! Coz he didn't do a single mod i had asked him too!! so i returned it!!
I am much more comfortable on my dining chair with 2pillows on the seat for height. I am sitting on it right now, almost 6hrs and my back is giving up slowly!! so i need to go back to my bed to lie down and rest my back and numb bum!!:rofl:

And i don't even have the option of going out and picking up the right one!!
For me its all about interpreting the specs and requesting the dealer for a few mods!!

All the best and wish me luck too!!:hap2:
 
ohh man i am confused now .. thanks for so much of info bikey .. i think ill go for a godrej one and ill talk to switch if he can geta good deal for me .. my budget is around 5k for it.. thanks everybody.
 
LOL seriously you want suggestions on a chair you better go to furniture shop try sitting in all the chairs and see which is the most comfortable then see the price tag and if it s well within the budget buy it or else head to the next shop
