    You need to look for operator chair. Probably best to read the reviews at amazon.

    I have this at home, it is comfortable. However I don't working at home, so the longest I sit on it was 4 hours.

    I've got one of these - not cheap but fantastically comfortable if you are sitting for long periods: http://www.boss-design.co.uk/task-and-visitor/p/46/desc/lily/

    If you like high-backed chairs, this one from Amazon is one of their best sellers, and I'm pretty sure it's a dupe of a much higher end chair.

    It's a little bit pricey, but if you're going to be sitting on it everyday then surely you're going to want to invest in something comfy!

    Personally I have two office chairs (one for me, one for my OH), both from Ikea. I have the Vilgot / Nominell chair which is generally pretty comfy, although I wish I'd bought the one from Amazon for a higher back! My OH has the Markus, which I much prefer. All depends on personal preference, although I would recommend getting a mesh backed chair because I think they're much more comfortable than fabric (and stay far away from leather, or you'll grow to hate Summer).

    If your near one OP, maybe try Ikea? They have a range of chairs there and with prices which start pretty low (for a chair!) they can be delivered but it's expensive to do so, so if your able to get there yourself or piggy-back a ride back from a friend you could pick up a chair. I have an Ikea chair which is now around 7 or 8 years old and it's still going strong. If I needed to repurchase they'd be the one of the first places I'd try.
