Finding ergonomic / gaming chairs for 6ft+ tall people

Hobby Chair Recs

I actually just picked up a new desk chair from IKEA recently. The Markus - Large. They have this chair in 2 sizes and I have had the standard sized one for years as my home office/hobby chair, but I picked up a Large for my office at work and it's super comfortable, even for 8 hours a day. It's a b

My cozy space

https://www.ergohuman.com.au/product/ergohuman-ultra-fabric-mesh-combo-grey/ It’s a great chair, very adjustable, and best chair I’ve ever owned. I use an IKEA Markus for ages, then an Anda Seat Kaiser 3. Soon as I got this chair, I knew what support was meant to be. It’s like when you get a really

What type of neck collar do you recommend for sitting at a desk?

Sorry, just came across your comment/post while seeking solution for same issue I have too. I believe I’ve reached a point where condition gets more serious. Regarding gaming chair, the one mentioned seems well built having back and neck support in mind. Many chairs don’t have headrest. Also, cheap

Seriously will someone suggest a brand that doesn't suck

C7Max vs Sihoo M18 vs IKEA Markus vs Colamy Atlas

i'm your height and went through a similar chair search last year. The IKEA Markus has better headrest support for our height than the Sihoo M18, which tends to hit mid-back on taller users. For your budget, i'd also look at the Ticova Ergonomic Chair which has adjustable armrests that go higher tha

Enough about your ears. Tell me about your ass.

Some of the most forgotten things. People work with amazing studios but have crappy chairs, crappy mice and keyboards and, worst of all, crappy desks. My setup has ergonomics in mind. I use an IKEA Markus chair. It's not the most amazing thing in the world, but it's far from bad. A lot of people don

Logitech RS50 as sim-racing entry rig

I have the NLR 2.0, but I'm smaller than you. I use it with this kind of chair: https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/markus-office-chair-vissle-dark-grey-30261152/ I managed to make it comfortable for me, the adjustability of the NLR is pretty good, not like an aluminium profile rig, but it does its job. It
