What office chair is right for me?

Start with your budget, your desk and the way you like to sit. Build a shortlist before deciding what to buy.

Help me build a shortlist Choose chairs to compare

Start with your question.

Budget

What should I look for under $500?

Compare the full cost of a new chair with the condition and configuration of a pre-owned one.

Fit

Which chair fits my height and desk?

Check seat height, depth and arm clearance before narrowing down the models.

Herman Miller / Steelcase

Aeron or Leap V2?

A fixed-size mesh seat or an adjustable-depth upholstered seat: start with the difference you will sit on.

Haworth

Fern or Zody?

Compare back designs and available adjustments, with a clear distinction between Zody generations.

A shortlist is a starting point.

There is no single best office chair for every person. Compare the exact model and options, then try the adjustments where possible. A familiar brand name does not tell you the condition of a used chair or which features are installed.

Our guides explain published product differences and practical buying checks. They are not hands-on test rankings or promises of a perfect fit.
