Which chair do you use?

As engineers, I now realise a good chair and a table is a must to protect our long term health. I mostly work from home and sit in front of my computer 10+ hours per day with breaks in between. These days I am getting backache as my current chair is falling apart. I wanted to know your opinions on buying an expensive chair and are they actually worth it. I shortlisted a few below: 1. Herman Miller - Aeron (~Rs.1.2L) 2. Steelcase - Leap or Gesture (~Rs.1L+) 3. Haworth - Fern (Rs.~70k) I wanted to know if anyone has bought these chairs (or have any other suggestions), have any long term experience with it, and are they actually worth the cost. TIA!

I had a Green Soul gaming chair. Super comfy, paid 20k for it. Now I earn 3x, moved out to Bangalore and used a plastic chair I bargained down to 450. Still super comfy after padding with blankets and towels.

I use a plastic neelkamal chair with a back support pillow and soft cushion. My idea is the make sitting uncomfortable, so that I take breaks and not spend too much time sitting continuously.

The one's you've mentioned are definitely way out of my budget, but surely they must be worth it. I once spent around 20k on a chair when most folks in my circle wouldn't spend beyond 4k on a chair. I consider that to be one of my best purchases. I could easily spend 10+ hours on them. I am sure the one's you've shortlisted must be worth it. If possible, go to store, experience them in-person and only then make a purchase.
