Don't remember it on another vBulletin forum I was a mod on years ago either. Maybe it's a proforum thing?

At work I also had problems with sitting, the feeling of just sitting on my bones and getting pain in my back on most chairs. So my previous employer gave me a few chairs to try and eventually got this one : https://shop.romex.nl/esd-stoel-busines ... ingen.html
Best chair I could wish for, I own it now and also brought it to my current employer.

It is quite expensive and for gaming you don't need the ESD safety, but maybe you can figure out if there is a cheaper normal version available.

Other than being ESD safe it seems like a “normal” office chair.

Luckily I didn't have to pay for it, but the boss did :lol: . And I think I am using this for 7 or 8 years now and to me it was worth every cent he payed for it, just the relief of being able to sit without pain after several minutes sitting on the "normal" office chairs we had.

Gehen Sie nicht für die üblichen Gaming-Stühle, eine Menge von ihnen sind in der Regel nicht so bequem, sie neigen dazu, heiß um den Rücken, ich schlage vor, ein Bürostuhl mit einem atmungsaktiven Mesh auf der Rückseite, es ist viel bequemer und viel weniger eng, ich weiß, Topstar bietet eine Mischung zwischen Gaming und ein Büro einrichten Art von Stuhl. Ich habe einen für mein Kind gekauft, um sein Gaming-Setup zu vervollständigen, ich benutze ihn manchmal lol

Translation:
Don't go for the usual gaming chairs, a lot of them are usually not that comfortable, they tend to get hot around the back, I suggest an office chair with a breathable mesh on the back, it's much more comfortable and a lot less tight, I know Topstar offers a mix between gaming and an office set up type of chair. I bought one for my kid to complete their gaming setup, I use it sometimes lol

Don't go for a gaming chair. They are dreadful. I bought one in IKEA 2.5 years ago and find it OK. Nearly sure it's this one
https://www.ikea.com/ie/en/p/millberget ... -00489401/

Next one I get will probably be one of the mesh backed ones.

I recently bought a RESPAWN-900 Racing Style Gaming Recliner. It was discovered here https://www.reclinerland.com/best-gaming-recliner/. There is a set of ergonomically designed gaming seats offered there. I used to have awful back pain. This is why I decided to make a shift. I've had this chair for a month. I haven't had any back discomfort since.

I don't know if you bought another chair already, but I just bought Tempur-Pedic chair myself (the cushion is their memory foam). It was on sale at Staples for about $160.
Pretty comfy and held up well, but it hasn't been that long yet. I am concerned that the memory foam will wear down, however, I have a memory foam bed that is 4 years strong with no issues so it may hold up. I did purchase the 3-year warranty with the chair from staples and they assured me if I have any issues with the chair, I can use that warranty to get my money back (in store credit) to get another chair. So, if it only lasts me 2-3 years, I got my money worth and I can go pick out another chair.
