I've just finished reviewing what I consider to be the ultimate ergonomic office chairs: the Embody from Herman Miller. Sure it'll rinse your bank account to the tune of $1,500 – if you get a good deal on it – but for that, you get the best engineered ergonomics currently available... And that got me thinking.
Practically no one reading that review is going to buy that chair. Creative Bloq caters to creative professionals who would rather spend money on their next Wacom Cintiq or MacBook Pro than on the thing they park their butts on. However, I've also had enough success introducing this audience to the best budget office chairs to know that enough of you have probably heard of back health and the benefits of ergonomics, and since you're reading this, I thought I'd break down what you should realistically expect, or even demand, from a budget chair under $250.
