Razor iskur is my chair of choice atm. No regrets.

If your company/firm won’t pay for a new chair, just buy it yourself. The $300-500 is worth less than your spine.

Was going to recommend Secret lab as well. If it’s good enough for obese gamers spending 12+ hours a day on their ass, it’s good enough for me.

The only knock on them is that the leather doesn’t breathe as well as mesh from competitors. But incredibly comfortable

Look on wire cutter. They have a whole article

Backjoy--it's great.
