Best budget to buy office chairs

Not sure where to place this thread so my apologies if in the wrong place.

After a very long period of being intellectually unproductive, I am now (almost) back in a position where it is worthwhile setting up a little work space in my flat.

Part of this of course is having a comfortable, supportive ('ergonomic') chair that I can sit on for long periods of time (or indeed any time at all) without causing myself pain/damage. When I was at University (some time ago) I had a chair that did/had lots of things - lumbar support, tilting that could be weight adjusted or locked etc. When googling I see a lot of models that have mesh instead of cushion (for sweat?).

I've picked up a fairly comfortable, but limited, swivelly chair from British Heart Foundation for a tenner. I'm using it for meals as well as the hard wooden chairs my dear mother gave me give me agony.

Have a birthday coming up and have asked family to club together and get me a decent chair. Been doing some research but don't really understand the territory. Any advice?

    At the office I used to work in they'd get cheap office chairs at about £60 which fell apart quite soon and weren't very comfortable or well made.

    Get yourself a decent used chair from a seller of used office furniture. I got a couple from a company on the edge of Chester for about £60 each and they're great. They'd have been more like £250 new and that's what you need to pay for a decent one.
