The Best Office Chairs Under $700 I've Tested in 2024

[@magnusblannerjul2480]

Many European buyers, myself included, are interested in the chair options you recommend. However, we often find that many of these products are not available in Europe. This makes it challenging to find the right chair here, especially since your reviews are so thorough and helpful. Could you consider including alternatives that are accessible in Europe in your future reviews?

this please

[@DouglasWhitcomb]

100% agree!!

[@paft]

Yep, many of these you cannot get in the U.K. A company named Eurotech that's based in the US...

I learned a valuable lesson last week while traveling, I stayed in an old outdated hotel in Pennsylvania And it had a cheap chair, a hybrid knockoff Aeron/Embody but it had a headrest, one of those rounded, concave ones and honestly it was great and made me realize that my Embody really needs a headrest. I just don't understand Herman Miller's aversion to headrests.

Thanks for this review. I just purchased the Soji office chair. I work a hybrid schedule plus I have a trading business so a lot of my time is spent at my desk. I purchased a $175 office chair off Amazon which turned out to be a gaming chair (they sold it as an "executive chair"). It is so uncomfortable, heavy and clumsy. Worst purchase ever. the word hate is a strong word but that chair deserves every bit of it. So I am happy to spend a few more dollars to be comfortable, the reviews I've read are great and a selling point for me is that it arrives fully assembled. I don't have to put it together??? Winning! It arrive in three days. I'll update. I'm excited.

I'm asking completely seriously, for I am ignorant of the smaller details, but why are most chairs listed over 500-600 dollars are the ones you need, and every other cheaper one just gets, more or less, laughed at as trash you shouldn't get. I can't fathom spending that much on a chair that isn't for the living room, and I've had the "poor" chairs. Mostly it's diffcult because I am 6'7 372

[@luislebronaponte2737]

I agree about the Verus cushion bottoming out. If you want a nice, big seat in which you can comfortably seat cross-legged and for long hours, just get a different chair. I'm 5' 8", if that helps.

[@PrograError]

I wonder which chairs would be suitable for me. - Avoided mesh, due to previous cheap mesh, hard shell frame chair basically failed after certain years of use and pokes when leaning back. (Bad experience) - Currently using Secretlab 2018 Omega - Long lasting yet durable, minimal maintenance needed.

[@weirdodude1173]

Great videos! I personally would get a remanufactured Steelcase for under $700, the Amia and Leap V2 are not perfect but they are going to last a long time and are pretty good. Thin seat pads being the only issue with those for me. I've gotten some "open box" chairs cheap from other places but they were returns and do have defects. Remanufactured ones are checked out well and come with a great warranty. Thumbs up.

[@JayJay-jx3zg]

Unless you need a cushy seat. Also, their lumbar support can be kind of aggressive. Lastly, their headrests usually get graded poorly, gesture aside.

[@rodrigocruz8548]

I can get a Mirra 2 with 5 year warranty for 700€, you think its worth it?

[@anthonybaier8840]

Hey BTOD! I need some advice. I actually found someone selling a First Gen Aeron for only $20! Yeah, crazy, I know! So, after snatching it up and replacing the broken cylinder, I found that it's not tilting properly either. But thats only a secondary issue. The biggest issue is after taking it apart a time or two, I accidentally stripped out one of the seat frame's plastic bolt holes. *Face Palm* So, at this point, is there another seat I could buy that would fit the Aeron but not charge the Aeron price? I saw you guys made a hybrid out of two chairs once. Also, if there's not another seat I can replace it with, would it be possible to find a metal casing that the bolt could turn into, and glue that into the frame hole? Please help!

[@JCampbell91x]

How about the best chairs for the UK?

[@rayakahunta]

Can you review the Flexispot chairs please?

[@kasper7297]

Im 6'4 which chair should i get

[@LasermanSteam]

What chairs would you recommend for people who are very tall (6'7)? I feel like most reviewers consider "tall" recommendations at 6'1-6'4 and I've heard once you go past that 6'4 point a lot of chairs in that group become a lot less comfortable

[@btodtv]

We are currently building this chair. Stay tuned :) -Greg

[@LasermanSteam]

@@btodtv Excellent, glad to hear! Thanks for all the work you do

[@allisonwendell9942]

I just received by Soji office chair. I came fully assembled (GOD Bless AMERICA). And it’s absolutely worth the money I spent on it. I was lucky they were having a promotion so I got it for just over $500. I’m happy. It’s literally like night and day. Not as bulky and clumsy as the chair I just threw away. Way more comfortable in the seating. I wish this model had the head rest but that’s not an issue for me really. So thanks again.

[@cguser]

I want this chair right now

[@Willowtree76]

Very informative!

[@Jaxs3003]

Morning!!

[@dqncow]

What's the best under $500 chair for 5'10 person?

[@GameslordXY]

Remember Kids,a 200$ Office Chair will kill you.🤪

[@rodrigocruz8548]

No, but it might not be confortable for 10+ hours

[@yousefhamed1565]

Is the soji better than the Vera?

[@btodtv]

Depends on what you care about. Soji will sit more firm, but has a better build overall -Greg

[@Hav0c-Mx]

Stop w the chair stretching it's weird 😂

[@tommyd9394]

1 likeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[@feilox]

$700 not high end? what? What do we have to spend for high end? $5000? $10,000? your market gonna collapse like those $1000 headphones.

[@btodtv]

High end is typically north of $1,000. That’s where chairs like Haworth Zody, Steelcase Leap and many of the top end Herman Miller chairs start -Greg

[@orbispictus6127]

$1000 headphones? collapse? when?

[@PrograError]

TBH 1k market will almost never collapse, just relegated to the more niched segment of the consumer market... if anything, it will be like the smartphone market where the 1k+ phone are the overkill ones but yet have people buying it...

[@justadad2304]

What an odd comment.

[@venom5809]

I travel a lot and see a lot of those headphones everywhere. My friend teaches high school and lots of those kids have them. I thought they would fail too but I was wrong.
