Does anyone have a really nice desk chair?

I'm about 6' 3" and about 210 pounds so I am a big guy, and my back has started hurting after long stints of EQ2. So I want to get a computer chair. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Aeron or Steelcase chairs but long session gaming is just bad for you. No way around that other than to limit your sessions or break them up with physical activity.

If I wanted to know what my mom thought about it I'd ask her. Thanks for the tips though.

First, take regular breaks.
Second, don't skimp on the chair.
The $129.00 model here is a good chair. The $250.00 one is better of course but you don't really need to go there.

Google 24 hour ergonomic chairs and browse what comes in. They aren't cheap, though.

I also have one of these and recommend it highly.
If only for the aesthetics rather than the support.

Kinnarp Sweden made my chair, it's a bit on the expensive side but I'll probably never have to buy a new one.
I'm unsure if they retail in America.

How did you get EQ2 running smoothly enough that it'd warrant more than twenty minutes of playtime?

This is the one I have.

The best solution is to go Staples, OfficeMax, Fry's Electronics, etc. and sit in them to find out the one you like the best. Don't buy them based on reviews as everyone has different needs.

None of them feel right in the store. I was thinking of trying something a little more high end this time. I have a 400 dollar leather high back executive desk chair now, but it is over 15 years old, and pretty worn out.
I knew they had all kinds of new crap. One of my buddies at work has a pretty expensive mesh jobby with an independent head rest and lumbar. But I've never really sat in it. just wanted to see if anyone here had my build and any experience with something like that.

If you are striking out at the office stores, try going to a higher end furniture store and talking to the people there.

Look into those in chair massagers. I got one as a gift long ago and they can be pretty nice.

I have one of these at work and love to have one for the house BUT I do not think my wife would be happy with spending over 800.00 on a desk chair.

I sat in a human touch iJoy when I bought my furniture in Rockford and it was the best thing that ever happened to my back.
Find one and try it out. We are not talking some vibrator shaking you around like most cheap massagers (see above) This thing feels like a Chinese Dominatrix walking all over your back.

You can probably buy better massage chairs but not for 600-800 dollars. I'd put these things up against $2000 dollar chairs. It beats the shit out of my lower spine and it's better than fapping.
