I badly need a new chair.
I put the thumbnail chair there just for fun. It's called the Vantum and it's ~$700. I don't need a Cadillac chair. A Honda is more than adequate. I just don't know what that'll cost.
- What's the absolute minimum you'd spend to get a Honda chair? $100? $200? More?
- What brands have the best reputations?
- What brands should be avoided?
- What questions am I forgetting to ask?

The cough backstory
The plain-old desk chair I bought just 14 months ago already has a serious crack. I noticed it today. I don't think it can be repaired. Plus the crack will expand making the chair worthless. It's just a question of how fast. Worst of all - could the chair collapse all-of-the-sudden sending me crashing to the floor?
Before I bought it I avoided the cheapest chairs. I spent a bit more - $80 - in hopes the damn chair would last at least a couple years. So much for that!
I have this as my work chair and dislike it a lot. It sort of tilts forward so you never actually sit back on it much and my back does not love it, tbf my back is also broken, but still. Would not buy again, the cheap gaming chair I used to sit in was a lot better.
