I need a new chair with lumbar support and recline ability. Im 6.5ft and 104kgs. Herman Miller chairs have decent reviews but the price is eyewatering. Can ,whoever owns one, tell me what the build quality is like and how hardy the chairs are. Most things nowdays cater to hobbits weighing in at 75-80kgs and who are 6ft short. If I spend that much then its got to be a long term chair that can handle a man mountain.

Or any other suggestions would be very welcome.

Thanks.

Edit: The Steelcase brand appear to be an alternative to Herman Miller chairs. Unfortunately I cannot find anywhere close by that stocks these chairs (so that I can try it out first) so if I do decide on one, Im going to have to go on reviews alone.

When I switched jobs and started working remotely I decided it was time to buy a decent chair. I eventually sucked it up and went with the Herman Miller Aeron and I'm glad that I did. It is an extremely comfortable chair and I spend at least 8 hours a day in it. I actually noticed a reduction (I now have none) in back aches that I had become used to in the office. They are expensive, yes, but if you can afford it and plan to spend a lot of time in front of your computer, the cost benefit is huge. Just my 2c

Is there any chair which is good for back pain?

Actually i wasted a lot of money in buying chairs and testing them but still I have an issue of back pain because of late night working.

I already visited the doctor and he said to take complete bed rest lol. How can I do rest when I have too much workload on me, that's why I am looking for an alternative solution.

I tried massage chairs as well so that I don't want to waste my money and time again that's why I am here to get some suggestions.

The budget is not a problem at all. I only want quality material.

That's great! Check some top-rated chairs from Chairs point. I hope you will find some good products that will reduce your back pain.

Thanks, Man I will try some from here and share my feedback after a week.

Got the Serta Big and Tall Hensley Executive chair... $400 or so but so worth it. I'm fairly lean but I like the good high and wide chair with padding

I bought a Herman Miller Embody 11 months ago. It's a bit expensive but definitely the best chair I've ever had for this job.

Have you had an Aeron? In the unfortunate event that I need to replace mine, I was curious how the Embody compares to the Aeron.

Well, unfortunately I didn't had the opportunity to compare both chairs in real life.

Since the only Herman Miller showroom in Germany is located in Berlin, I'd have to travel around 280 km in order to get my hands on them...

So I decided after studying all available information to buy an Embody...and that chair really more than fulfills all my needs.
