Anyone have a desk chair that they love?

[mollybrown]

I'm finally getting around to putting my office together, but I can't find any remarkable chairs.  It doesn't have to be fancy or anything, but I would love to find something more than just a basic office chair.  The walls are SW Unique Gray (which looks like a cross between lavender and gray in my room), with a metal and white Elfa desk, and a dark gray daybed.  I will have 2 desks parallel to each other with the chair between, so I prefer a chair that swivels (but it doesn't need to roll).  I'll be using black, white, gray, and purple for accents.  Any suggestions?

I just got a tempurpedic chair from Staples that I am obsessed with. It was the most comfortable chair I have ever sat in. I put the brochure on the fridge as a reminder to what I wanted to save for. My husband suprised me with it for my birthday

Only thing I dislike is that like all tempurpedic products, it had a strong nasty odor the first couple weeks.

I have a similar office color scheme -- grey, purple, white and navy. I have the spotlight desk from C&B with this chair. I tried one or two knock off versions from Overstock and they didn't have good support. This one is very comfortable and sturdy.

We have two of these in the office (his and hers) in blue/black combos. We can share a desk, but not a chair, LOL. I love this chair because I could customize to just how I sit. Mine is 10 years old and still going strong. His is only five years old. There were not MM.

I sat in this one at C&B last week - it was so comfortable! I'd like to get one for my office at home. Glad to hear it is comfortable for more than a quick sit.

I have a Herman Miller chair. It's not the prettiest thing, but OMG comfy. I bought it used off CL five years ago. We've moved 3x since then and I didn't even consider getting rid of it to save space/money on the truck. It's that great.

We must have very similar taste.  I have what is apparently the knock off from Overstock sitting in my cart right now.  This chair is the front runner right now (I guess the C&B chair since comfort is important).  

Thanks for all the suggestions!

Any time I leaned back in the overstock ones it felt like I was going to fall out of the chair! I couldn't believe how different they were. Normally I am all about the bargain but in this case I'm glad I sent it back.
