At home I've got a couple of Eames Aluminum Group management chairs: http://s7d2.scene7.com/is/image/HermanMillerStore/b2c_3x4cro... . I tend to slouch, and these are very firm and force you into an upright posture.

#13Ikea markus is a decently comfortable full-back chair for only $100 and has a 10 year warranty BUT it started to make horrible noise after only a few months of use and im not thrilled about the hassle of replacing it.. also it is not very adjustable

Did you ever consider a chair in which you could lay down ?

#17Herman Miller Aeron chair I've had forever and ever, 15-20 years? So long I'm not sure. Still looks great and works great. I spent nearly a grand on it, but the best money I ever spent on a chair.

#18From a TCO standpoint, it’s cheaper than buying an IKEA chair once every 5 years, or an OfficeMax chair...ever. And, during the whole time you own it, it’s a nicer experience than either other option.
Steelcase and HumanScale chairs are also similarly acquireable and resealable, but the Aeron is the one people know the name of, plus it’s a bit of a nod to dot-com bust startups in the Bay Area and a nod to chair design in general (read about Eames and the history of Herman Miller if you care). They’re also made in the US if that matters to you: https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.fastcodesign.com/1669397/an...
