Promising review: "This office chair is exactly what I was looking for! It was extremely easy to put together, which was a huge plus. It swivels well and the wheels roll easily. I bought this chair to help improve my posture...it's the perfect height to keep my feel flat on the ground and the lumbar support reminds me to sit up straight...which eliminates my neck and shoulder pain. Home run! This chair has it all. The past three years have done quite a job on those of us working from home and sitting all day and developing poor posture habits. Thank you!" —Deb L.

Promising review: "Easy to assemble, looks great, and is super comfy! I am doing school online and sometimes have to sit for up to six hours! My old chair was so uncomfortable I couldn't handle it. In this chair I can change positions as often as needed and I don't get pains or restlessness. The wheels could be a bit better, but it's completely functional." —Heather

Promising review: "Easy assembly, great quality, and it feels wayyyy better than a budget-friendly chair option (take it from me, I've gone the cheap route before). I'm very happy with this purchase. It looks just like the picture and it feels great to sit in. I spend far too many hours daily at my desk so I needed a comfortable chair that went with the aesthetic of my office space and this chair delivers. If you sit at your desk for a many hours as I do, spend the extra money on a good chair like this one. Your back will thank you!" —Lameca

9. A translucent acrylic task chair to update your space with discreet, modernist vibes, even if your company laptop and its criminally slow load times make you feel like it's perpetually 2011.
Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for. It fits perfectly under my desk and is very discreet. It is also surprisingly comfortable! I was not expecting it to be. And I love that it has the rollers. Also, WAY easier to put together than I thought! Just make sure to wipe off the silver part that you can see through the seat of the chair very well, I had to go back and take it apart because you could see fingerprints." —KH
Get it from Amazon for $64+ (available in six colors).
10. Or a matte molded plastic office chair for the color lovers who want the same clean-lined aesthetic in a punchier hue. It's also super durable, so you don't have to worry when the kids and the dog come barreling through.
11. A faux leather padded desk chair so you can join the legions of happy customers who have taken this chair for a *literal spin* and couldn't be happier (it's earned nearly 4,000 5-star reviews). I mean, just look at all that plush cushioning.
Promising review: "After my back being twisted by my old desk chair, I set out to buy a new one. But, I knew it needed to have great back support since I have scoliosis and any sort of back flopping will cause a migraine...I ordered this chair and I am so glad that I did! It offers a great amount of lumbar support and is soft on the seat — no more tailbone pain. The arms being cushioned were an unexpected perk. The chair rolls and swivels like a champ, but, most importantly, it is the perfect amount of squishy and firm. Happy legs, happy feet, and happy booty. Spill proof, and naughty Corgi nails proof, too." —ladulce
Get it from Amazon for $87.99+ (available in four colors).
12. A cozy memory foam armchair that dared to dream of a world where your favorite plush armchair has all the rolling and reclining functionality of a utilitarian office chair. 🎵 You get the beeeest of both worlds 🎵.
13. A pub-style rolling armchair because you want the mobility wheels provide without the bulky, pronged base typical of most office chairs. This one functions just the same, but on the down-low.
Promising review: "Better looking than a five-wheel desk chair. Rolls easily under table or desk or from desk to files. Attractive. Just need patience to assemble. Many twists of the Allen wrench (included)." —IbuLiz
Get it from Amazon for $159.99+ (clip the coupon on the product page to save up to $10 on select styles; available in 16 styles).
14. A standout animal print chair if you're basically allergic to anything that could be described as ordinary or boring (aka most desk chairs). Thankfully, this spotted beauty is in a league all its own.
15. An adjustable reclining mesh chair with a headrest and retractable footrest so you can *literally* kick your feet up between meetings, or during them. No judgments here!
Promising review: "If you work from home this chair is absolutely perfect. Easy to assemble if you follow the instructions (completed within 15 minutes) and very comfortable. I love the leg rest feature and the ability to lean back because it releases so much tension and pressure from my back. Great buy, you’ll love it!" —Nae’Lani
Get it from Amazon for $99.19+ (available in four colors).
16. A compact mesh swivel chair for a budget-friendly option that doesn't skimp on the functional details you need to get in the zone and fly through your to-do list.
Promising review: "Was unsure about this one, but it's great. Its very petite (great for small desks) but still as tall as other chairs. Super cute, assembled in like two minutes, and pretty comfortable. I haven't tested sitting in it for a full 8–9 hour day yet, but this is great if you need a slim chair to not take up too much room that still is effective." —Cara
Get it from Amazon for $36+ (available in 22 styles).
