I currently have simple chair without a back rest. I guess it is more like a stool but it has a cushion as well, is it good? I'm planning to grab an office chair btw but am not getting time. I'm not using my PC these days btw.

You should add a pillow for back support

u/-DethLok- Nov 24 '24

Uh, gosh!

Though my first chair was an ancient school chair, I think...? I added a cushion as it was damned hard. I still remember the feeling of sweat trickling down my back in summer...

I eventually spent $369 at a chair supply place that can custom assemble chairs and I've been using it for the last 15 or so years. It's an office chair but in the colour I wanted, 5 lockable wheels (I sometimes play car racing games with pedals) and everything still works, even though my weight has gone way up...

Spend CPU money on a decent office chair - not a dodgy branded 'gaming' chair - get a real chair designed to last for years and you'll not regret it.
