Kyser Soze has yet to learn the way of the Dremel
mid price office chair
Hi - I was reading Custom PC recently and they reviewed office chairs. I must have left my copy on a train because I can't find it - anybody know the name of the roughly 150 quid office chair that did well in the reviews?

Unless it was PC Format I was reading, in which case ... oops. :-)

Cheers,

Kyser

I was looking at there last night too, I have a similiar size chair to the one linked but I need a smaller one that takes up less space (yes dear........) when I move the computer to another room due to a bundle of joy appearing in the summer, I was looking for one with a headrest thats less than £100

As GeordieGoose mentioned above, the ex VAT price of the Pledge Solar SOL7MINFB seems to have mysteriously increased by £72 since receiving a Custom PC Premium award.

Link.

This website is offering it for £30 less.

Still a pretty hefty increase in a few months though.

Been looking at a new chair.

Its a tad absurd when you see 'affordable' chair @ £2xx and 'awesome' chair at £2xx

I don't think anyone is making affordable furniture now a day. Especially the office chair. Many of them take huge money hence their chair is not comfortable at all.
