I bought a Steelcase Leap but quickly realized the Aeron would’ve been better for how much I fart in my chair. The mesh is more aerodynamic

Looking to get a new Gaming chair.

Sys admins who are still remote.

Your two choices have already been provided on this thread in under 10 mins: Aeron and Steelcase Leap. If you have the budget, anything else just ain't worth considering.

While using my under-desk exercise bike, my seat keeps getting pushed away. I printed this to link the bike to my chair.

If you want something real fancy, there are a lot of used herman miller and steelcase office chairs that were liquidated from offices sold in office liquidation stores (you'd have to find a local one) or on FB marketplace. You can get a $1000+ office chair for 100-200 dollars used from offices and p
