Desk Swivel Chairs
« on: July 14, 2014, 07:37:26 pm »
Looking for a cheapy' but reasonable swivel chair to replace an existing one that's seen better days. It's for just general home & domestic laptop/PC desk work.

Picked a few out on IKEA but not mad on leather, although this was a very good price.
http://www.ikea.com/gb/en/catalog/products/50212486/

I've checked the usual mainstream Amazon, Ebuyer, Tesco etc...

Any ideas where I can pick up similar within that price range?

Thanks  :happy2:

I've recently (couple of months) bought one of these:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Helsinki-Cream-Leather-Faced-Executive-Managers-Office-Chair-BUILT-Graded-95-/171384789857?pt=UK_BOI_Office_Equipment_Supplies_Office_Furniture_ET&hash=item27e7545b61

It's very comfy, waaay better than the usual stuff around that price - think they are about £200 new.

I can highly recommend that seller on ebay having bought a few chairs from them now.

Is that genuine real leather? So many about on the market are stated as being leather but in the small print it says something along the lines of man made leather or what have you.

But one word of advice for buying office chairs, sit in them first. Doesn't matter how nice they look or how cheap they are, if they're not comfortable for you then they're not right.
Sarcasm for free. Anything after that can only be considered as a bonus.

Just because you think you know something, doesn't make you an expert if you've just read it on the internet, y'know.
