Best home office chair? Budget $300ish.

Would love if it could lean back because I like to lean back when I think lol. Must swivel, of course. Good back support and a head rest would be nice. Arm rests that can be flipped up or down is a nice feature because sometime I like to sit cross-legged in my chair, but not a deal-breaker. MCM aesthetic design a plus.

My $40 chair from Amazon isn’t cutting it. Ready to splurge considering cost per use and comfort!!!

I know secretlab omega chairs went up (think it was 300 pre pandemic when I got it) but could find used ones for under 300 or buy the knock off “gt game chair” on Amazon for 200 (got one when I moved a few months ago). Solid gaming chair

I second the Lazboy chairs. Bought it after sitting in 15 + chairs at staples. Pricey, but should laser for many years to come & has 3 year warranty for any wear. The navy blue leather was on sale, also in brown

There are reused office furniture warehouses in probably every major city. I would have a search and find you a Humanscale or Steelcase option that suits you. With offices downsizing at a record rate they should have fantastic deals and a decent selection.
