After using a sofa for many years and being hunched over my upper back has said enough. Can anyone recommend a decent chair for gaming (not a desk chair). Cheers.

I bought some second hand Cinema chairs. Well more like posh cinema chairs, than your standard feature. They help with sitting up right, and are comfortable, but not too comfortable, so it forces you to move at least after a few hours. I looked at those gaming chairs, as well as above, harvey normans used to sell some, but nothing since i could find.

Nice. Parents have a similar one and it is indeed comfortable.
Was going to suggest something like this if budget allowed. We are getting new chairs at work and I am wondering if I can convince them that I need one rather than a more plain one!
