Mainstays Ergonomic Mesh Back Task Office Chair
Best For: Budget-Friendly Support
If you need support on a budget, Mainstays Ergonomic Office Chair is the chair for you. For under $60, you get a smooth-rolling office chair with lumbar support, height adjustment, and the option to flip the arms down for use.
The Hype: 4.5 out of 5 stars and 4,271 reviews on Walmart.com
Comfy Butts Say: "The chair was crazy simple to put together. I substituted inline wheels rather than using the standard wheels supplied with it. This chair has a big, thick comfy seat and the arm rests are actually at the appropriate hight for me. I like the added bonus of the flip-up armrests. They allow me to leave my chair pushed in under the desk. The back support is at the perfect hight for me. I use this chair to move around my apartment. I've got several spine and orthopedic issues and this chair has given me the mobility, support, and comfort I need to get things done between surgeries. This is the best office chair I've ever had. I will definitely purchase another when this one wears out."

Comfy Butts Say: "The cushion is very supportive. It took a minute for my back to get used to a chair that made me sit with correct posture but I adapted quickly. The fabric is very comfortable and does not make me sweat. The chair came fully assembled and was packed ingeniously, in such a way that if I had to return it I could do so without trying to figure out how to repack it. That demonstrated to me how thoughtful the company was, knowing that not all chairs fit each of us equally. Fortunately for me, this is a great chair and I was able to recycle the box."

The seat is extremely spacious, so I'm able to sit criss-cross applesauce with my feet on the chair and both my knees tucked to my chest, and sometimes I like to sit with one leg up on the chair and the other in a criss-cross position. All positions are comfy! I have a pretty bad back so I was scared of sitting on it for long periods, but I'm able to pull all-nighters on it and I feel no pain! Definitely recommend if you're a student, work from home, or just looking for a comfy, aesthetic chair."

Comfy Butts Say: "I bought this chair because I needed to invest in something ergonomic with good back and neck support, due to a pinched nerve in my lower neck. After several iterations of gradually breaking a cheap-wad swivel desk chair every couple of years, I sprung for the kind of chair gamers use for long periods of sitting and upper body movement. No more rotating the base to the right angle so I'm not leaning sideways, and never quite getting it right. No more backaches from leaning forward in a low-backed chair, or not being able to lean back and see the screen. (I also added an external display at eye level for my MacBook.) The lumbar support is like nothing I have ever experienced! This chair was easy to assemble, and the parts include the very few tools you will need. The only controls are for height and reclining, so it's nice and simple, with fewer moving parts to break. And the armrest height seems about perfect."

The Hype: 4.2 out of 5 stars and 73 reviews on Walmart
Comfy Butts Say: "I really wanted this chair a couple of years ago but did not have a home office that I really needed it for. My oldest son ended up buying it on sale for himself last year and it is still going strong (he uses it a LOT). We ended up getting the same chair for our other kids and my husband and I — since we are now working from home. Plus, with all the color options we each have our own color so nobody can say so-and-so took my chair. (Yes, we have kids! LOL!) As a note, I have severe back problems in my lower back and I can sit in this chair for 8-10 hours a day with no problem. :)"

George Oliver Brinkerhoff Task Chair
Best For: Style & Comfort
This super sleek mid-century style task chair features a curved seat and back crafted from rounded wood and faux leather upholstery.
The Hype: 3.6 out of 5 stars and 11 reviews on Wayfair
Comfy Butts Say: "This chair went from being purchased to be more of a decorative piece in my home office to being my everyday office chair (work from home due to COVID-19). It handled the transition like a CHAMP. I was nervous about the design not being comfortable enough to handle 8-10 hours a day, but let me tell you, not only does it handle it, it forces me to have better posture when working, and in turn have less back pain than when I had a traditional office chair with more back support. I couldn't recommend it more; durable, stylish, comfortable, and promotes good posture. What more could you ask?"
