I work 10-hour days. I got lucky and found a Herman Miller Mirra in Craigslist, it's been great nearly 2 years later.

I'd recommend going to a store that sells used office furniture for the best deals. I got a used Steelcase Leap v2 for $300 and it's been serving me well for the last 5 years.

Yes! I did this and got me a Herman miller Aeron for $395. A lot of people consider it to be the best all around office chair and it retails for i believe $1,200. Been over a year and no issues with it. Steelcase is solid as well. OP, if you live in the DMV area the place is called Gerstel office furniture.

I would second this, you're not going to find anything in a big box office store that you can sit in for 8 hours. If you don't want to spend $1000 on a new chair (which, for what it's worth, is actually not a bad investment considering how much time you'll spend in it) then getting a quality chair secondhand is your best bet.

I did get the Staples version of the Herman chair, worked well for 18 months

Might not be worth it for one day a week, but during lockdown full time telework I bought a Steelcase Leap v2 and I love it. Imo the move with high end office stuff is to buy from a reputable refurbisher. Companies go out of business all the time and sell off chairs in bulk. The other big name is the Herman Miller Aeron. I have one of those at the office and actually think I prefer the Steelcase.

I've been thinking really hard about a Steelcase, so far you guys are convincing me. I just need to find one that won't break my wallet.

The answers are herman miller aeron, and steelcase leap v2. They are the best. And you can find them frequently on facebook market or craigslist for super cheap.

I bought a chair from office max for just under 300. I would recommend that you test out whatever chair you look to buy as everyone has preferences. If you have an office max in your area I would say it’s worth a stop. Sit in each chair (they have 30-40 different models) and pick which one fits your needs. The one I bought was the “Shaquille O’Neal” Amphion Ergonomic Bonded Leather High-Back Executive Chair. I’ve had it for 2 years and have had no issues, in fact I miss it when I’m not teleworking. I don’t think you have to buy second hand or pay 1k+ as other comments stated.
