So I am looking at a new office chair.
Now I have a pretty good one, but am looking to get something to make me sit with better posture.
I prefer a nice looking executive style, but can be flexible for function/comfort.
any experiences?????

Thanks dpolen. Here is what I am looking at now.

Here is what I have.
http://www.officemax.com/omax/catalog/sku.jsp?skuId=21100915&searchString=&productId=ARS26426&category_Id=10001
I seem to slouch a lot in this chair.
I am interested in the tilt of the base, and arm adjustments. plus the mesh may be cooler, I am the 1st one on the heater duct and it is about 80 every afternoon. 72 if I am lucky in the morning.
Anybody ever try a mesh chair.

I wish I had that problem with the heat. I had to bring my own personal heater to stash under the desk to keep the frostbite away for the winter...
Never done mesh. but that top one looks pretty shnazzy. Sorry cant help you out anymore.

| We have a "boat" driver seat at the shop and I used it for about 4 months. I can say it would not be my first choice for an office chair to sit on day after day.

Yeah I'm not so sure that would fly, but if it could I would go standard.

My chair seems to make me lean back and take a lot of naps so i would recommend it highly!
I have no real advice here, we had the worlds worst office chair at home and just replaced it with a cheapy from Menards because it was super comfortable and fit well. My only advice is to sit in em' before you try them, I found some really uncomfortable chairs are on the market today.
