I'm looking for a new deskchair for gaming and wanted to know what people have. I'm looking for something in the â,¬100 - â,¬200,- range (might be a bit higher if it's worth it).

I saw Gunda had a nice chair at the LAN which seemed comfortable and had a good height (which I also need).
I know TeaLeaf had one posted a bit back also but I can't seem to find the post anymore.

Suggestions needed, thanks in advance!

I recently changed to one of these ...

Very comfortable and configurable (height, tilt etc) and I'm very pleased with it. I removed the arms as I like to get close to the desk and they were preventing that.

I think this is deemed to be one of the best chairs out there.

Before you shout at me about the price, secondhand they're a lot cheaper - I paid a couple hundred for mine. Just worth having a look around.

Thanks all so far.
Due to your post Pen I came after a Google search on a website and salesroom near my hometown: http://www.rmkantoor.nl/
It seems they have quit a few chairs up there and maybe also something for me. I might have to go there and try a few out. Must say I never heard of them but a colleague uses them also.
Maybe I should have Googled a bit more.

No problem. I do love mine. I have a bad back and its done wonders. I think you'll need to see if you can get one second hand though as new they cost a bomb.

They also do different sizes depending on your height which is going to be a consideration for you.

I have this one from the same place Gunda recommended. https://www.2ndhnd.com/collections/steelcase/products/steelcase-leap-v2-chair-in-new-black-fabric
Although it was cheaper when I picked this up!
Very comfortable chair.

It keeps redirecting me to a Dutch site but with the chairs recommended. Thank you!

I have one of these at the office the other at home.

The biggest tip I can give you is to go to a chair showroom take a book, tablet or phone and sit in your chair of choice for a long period and see if it’s comfortable. Doing this will highlight a comfortable chair for you.
