    Hey guys,
    Hope you're all well?

    So over the last few weeks, i've been trying to build up our spare room as an office.

    Is there any recommendations for office chairs/gaming chairs.

    I like the look of the types which look like car seats.

    Any suggestions?

    Are GT Omega worth the extra spend??

    I bought my Gt Omega in November / 2017 and it's held up to constant use! however Herman millers seem to be well received.

    If you can afford Herman Miller, choose the right one for you and you won't regret it.

    They are - But I'm given to understand they can be had for much less if you're willing to search through auctions and whatnot.

    I'm sure I've heard (what might be urban legend) stories of them being had for 2-300 rather than the eye-watering RRP.

    £300 is do-able for a second-hand loaded Aeron, and I'd highly recommend it. Love mine.

    Indeed they are, my Aeron cost £1154 but, all HM chairs come with a 12 year warranty which includes the gas-lift. If you are thinking of going for used, bear in mind it is easy to get spare parts, including the mesh seat and backrest. Without last years PPI payout, I wouldn't have been able to have one.

    PS, it's super comfortable.
