Hyken

Stop buying "gaming" branded chairs and just pick up an office mesh chair at Staples instead.... Check out the Dexley or Hyken mesh chairs, either of these chairs will outlive the Iskur or any other "gaming" branded chairs....

The Staples mesh Dexley and Hyken chairs get high recommendations. We got both and they’ve been great

If you want to try having the machine in/near your lap, then look into lap boards/desks built for office chairs. They simply rest on the arms but this lets you look at the $100-200 range of office chairs. I like the Staples Hyken.

Really whatever’s in your budget. I’ve had a Staples Hyken chair for the longest time and it’s suited me very well and was only like $120. You can go higher and higher but you probably want something with lumbar if you’re gaming and mesh if you sweat

Had one of these when I was younger and it started falling apart pretty quickly. Very comfy at first (compared to what I was used to) but lost its plushness etc extremely quickly. Threw some gel chair cushion topper thing on and that was nice for a while. But overall I would completely skip if I cou
