Anda Seat Phantom 3 Series | PVC Leather or Fabric | $399.99 $269.00 at AndaSeat (save $130.99)
With a wide base and a simplistic design, the Phantom 3 isn't the most exciting-looking chair around, but it's all about the comfort and reliable build quality. We know all about AndaSeat quality at this point, and they're supremely robust chairs. The only real question about comfort is the pretty basic armrests and a bit of an awkward lumbar cushion.

Boulies Master Series | Ultraflex PU/Water-Resistant Fabric | $459.99 $369.99 at Boulies (save $80)
The Boulies Master series performed very well in our review, and the model we covered with the water-resistant fabric is covered under this discount as well. It's got comfortable armrests, good lumbar support and is very stable in all positions, and it looks the part to boot. It might be a little small for some, but the comfort on offer here makes it worthy of serious consideration.

Secretlab Titan Evo Lite | Leatherette or softweave | $459 $419 at Secretlab (save $40)
Our favorite gaming chair does not come cheap, with the prices having risen consistently since the Titan Evo originally launched. To combat that Secretlab has released the Titan Evo Lite, a chair coming in at the same original price as the Titan Evo. It's got the same essential design but lacks some of the luxury touches, such as adjustable lumbar support and the special magnetic neck pillow and armrests. But it's still a high-quality chair, with the same robust, reliable comfort the company has made a name for itself with.

Anda Seat Kaiser 3 Series | PVC leather or Fabric | $499 $429 at Anda Seat with discount code K3SS30 (save $70)
Another Andaseat chair, but this one is a little more premium, hence the price increase. In our review of the XL version, we found it to be very comfy indeed with nice features like the magnetic snap-on neck support pillow and built-in adjustable lumbar support. The adjustment knobs might be a bit fiddly, but overall this is a great gaming chair with a host of features even some of the more expensive thrones would love to have.

Secretlab Titan Evo | 'Signatures' designs | Magnetic cushions | $549 $519 at Secretlab (save $30)
The Titan Evo is our favorite gaming chair, and has been for the longest time. It's the benchmark by which we judge all other gaming chairs—it's comfortable, supportive, and easy to assemble. The holy trinity. Buying direct from Secretlab is the only way to pick up this chair at this price right now.

Herman Miller Embody Gaming Chair | $1,845 $1,421.44 at Herman Miller (save $573.56 with code SAVE5)
Right now you can save 25% on the excellent Embody gaming chair I use every day, plus an extra 5% on top if you use code SAVE5. You can read my full Embody review for more info. One thing to note: the 'before' price on this chair is a lot higher these days than when this chair was first announced. It used to be $1,495, then $1,595, and now it's a whopping $1,845. Oof. The money saved here brings you back down to the original price, at least, so you're still saving something (if not quite as much as it seems).

Dowinx gaming office chair| PU leather| included footrest | $289.99 $187.90 at Amazon (save $102.79)
This Dowinx chair is somewhere between an office chair and a gaming chair, with some of the aesthetic of the gaming variety and shape, but an included footrest and slanted armrests. It is designed to straighten up for better posture, yet lounge when you want a more comfortable session.

Office Star ProGrid | Black | $264.99 $241.99 at Best Buy (save $59)
It might look a bit basic, but this is our best budget office chair for a reason. It's extremely tweakable, with a selection of levers that allow you to tilt, slide, and shift this chair around to find the perfect sitting position for you. It's remarkably comfortable, and while it won't be winning any awards in the style stakes, it's the seating positions it can provide that really matters.

Razer Fujin Pro| Black | $1049.99 $894.99 at Razer (save $155)
Even with a decent discount, this is still a lot to pay for an office chair. However, in our review, we found the Razer promoted an excellent, upright posture with easy ergonomics, was very comfortable, and trod the line between being supportive enough for hours of office work, and comfortable enough to game through the night as well.

Herman Miller Aeron| Black | $1,275 $908.44 at Herman Miller (save $366.56 with code SAVE5)
Herman Miller has a serious reputation amongst those who really know their chairs, and this ergonomic model is extremely comfortable, well-made, and is a bit of a looker to boot. This Black Friday deal gets you 25% off a luxury chair with 12 years (!) of warranty, and a design that could legitimately be called iconic. It might be a lot of money, but at what price ultimate comfort, design, and style? For 5% extra saved, use code SAVE5 at the checkout.

NeueChair | Silver | $1,319 $1,069 at NeueChair (save $250)
The NeueChair has long stood as our pick for the best office chair, and for good reason. It's highly adjustable, incredibly comfortable, and built to take years of abuse. While it's a lot to ask for a PC gamer to spend so much on a bland chair without fire decals or their favorite LoL character sprayed on it, we think it's well worth it for a proper office/gaming room. Don't forget to use the code "NEUEDIRECT" for free shipping.

Playseat Challenge | Sim racing cockpit | Foldable | $229 $168.99 at Amazon (save $60.01)
Playseat has become one of the go-to names for foldable sim racing fun, and this chair gives you most of the advantages of a proper sim racing rig setup while remaining foldable enough to stick in a wardrobe. You get plenty of adjustment, a pedal mount to stop your foot controls from slipping around, and a comfy driving position that's much more convenient to have in your home than a big metal frame.

Price watch: ➖
Next Level Racing GT Lite | Sim racing cockpit | Foldable | $199.99 at Best Buy
Similar to the foldable Playseat Challenge, this Next Level Racing sim racing rig is a good option if you can't make permanent space for a whole sim racing rig. I don't blame you. With mounting points for your wheels and pedals, this will importantly keep you from slipping around under braking.

Playseat Trophy | Sim racing cockpit | Red | $599 $549 at Playseat (save $50)
If you can spare the space (this racing rig won't pack down to a smaller size), this is one of the comfiest and sturdiest racing rigs I've ever used at home. There's space for your pedals and wheel as standard, and everything stays firmly in place so you can really slam on the load-cell brake if need be while racing.

Corsair TC100 Relaxed | Fabric | £199.99 £159.98 at Scan (save £40.01)
The TC100 Relaxed is our favourite affordable gaming chair right now, following up on the popular T3 Rush with a great look and genuine comfort. And on a personal note, the fact it allows you to sit cross-legged is a big plus for the TC100 and a big cross against most bucket seat style chairs. It's not technically on discount yet, and may well drop in price later, but this is still a superb price for a truly excellent chair.

Anda Seat Phantom 3 | Fabric | £279.99 £199.99 at John Lewis (save £80)
The Anda Seat Phantom 3 is a good-looking and high-quality fabric chair with soft fabric and comfortable moulded foam and comes highly regarded. It's got five angles of title adjustment with lock and an ergonomic backrest, making it a strong contender in this price bracket.

Boulies Master Series | Ultraflex PU/Water-Resistant Fabric | £369.99 £289.99 at Boulies (save £80)
The Boulies Master series performed very well in our review, and the model we covered with the water-resistant fabric is covered under this discount as well. It's got comfortable armrests, good lumbar support and is very stable in all positions, making this a chair you can really rely on to stand the test of everyday comfort.

Anda Seat Jungle II | PVC leather | £308 £299 at Currys (save £9)
With tons of adjustability, a mix of PVC leather and velvet(esque) fabric, and proper head and lumbar cushions to boot, this is a lot of gaming chair from a proper brand for the money. We like AndaSeat's offerings a lot, and while the Jungle is something of an older model, it has a lot going for it at this price.

Secretlab Titan Evo | Leatherette | Magnetic cushions | £469 £439 at Secretlab

Playseat Challenge | Sim racing cockpit | Foldable | £199.99 £124.99 at Very (save £75)
If you can't dedicate a whole chunk of your room to your sim rig alone, the Challenge is a more compact sim racing cockpit than the Trophy. It'll fold together easily, yet it still retains a solid base for your wheel and pedal set.

Playseat Trophy | Sim racing cockpit | Black | £549 £429 at Amazon (save £110)
If you can spare the space (this racing rig won't pack down to a smaller size), this is one of the comfiest and most sturdy racing rigs I've ever used at home. There's space for your pedals and wheel as standard, and everything stays firmly in place so you can really slam on the load-cell brake if need be while racing. Logitech isn't selling it any cheaper right now, so worth a punt on Amazon's discount price.

Boulies EP200 | Black | £279.99 £179.99 at Boulies (save £100)
We've been fans of Boulies gaming chairs for a while now for their quality and comfort, but it makes chairs of all types, even for the office dwellers among us. This mesh office chair has plenty of adjustability, an integrated lumbar support, and a breathable material that should keep you cool, comfy, and at exactly the right posture to take the pressure off your spine over a long hard day.

NeueChair | Silver | £724 £674 at SecretLab (save £50)
The NeueChair has long stood as our pick for the best office chair, and for good reason. It's highly adjustable, incredibly comfortable, and it's cheaper than many of Herman Miller's lot. While it's a lot to ask for a PC gamer to spend so much on a bland chair without fire decals or their favourite LoL character sprayed on it, we think it's well worth it for a proper office/gaming room.
