I figured this would be the best place to ask, so can anyone recommend a good computer chair for $100? My current chair is amazing: mesh back, adjustable headrest, back tilts independently from seat, but it's 8 years old and the height adjustment is shot, so it's stuck at the lowest height which is a few inches too short for my current desk. The reason I don't just get a $70 task chair from Staples is because I consume a lot of media on my home PC, so comfort for extended sessions is important. I'm not comfortable spending $200 on a chair because I'll be finishing grad school in a year and I have no idea what kind of home office environment I'll have afterwards. However, if there's a great chair for a great price, I'd be willing to pay for quality and just deal with moving another piece of furniture. I'd also be willing to wait since my old chair is still serviceable, albeit barely. I remember about 10 years ago, Walmart sold $60 high back chairs. Is there anything similar these days? I'd be okay with buying locally or from Amazon. For reference, I'm 6' tall. edit: v We do have a Sam's Club and Costco reasonably nearby. I was thinking, maybe the cheaper solution would be to somehow raise myself by about 3". I could buy a bunch of those plastic mat thingies; maybe Ikea sells them cheaply.

People talk about changing your monitor's height as if it's some simple task. I find desk-mounted arms don't elevate enough, and wall mounting is often not an option. Getting right the chair/monitor height differential is pretty simple, but then the keyboard and mouse are too high. In other words, I have to raise my chair to basically maximum height for my arms to be in the proper relaxed/bent elbows position for keyboard and mouse use, but then my monitors are like 10" too low.

For a number of years, I've been using a tempered glass L desk, except I've just been using the 2 wings side by side to form sort of a long desk. The left side is for my personal dual monitor setup, and the right side is for dual monitor WFH. This photo is a bit outdated but gives a sense of the setup: I was working on the right desk when this randomly happened today:  I have no idea how it happened, but I've had the desk for about 12 years and it's been through 3 moves in U-Hauls, so maybe there was a small chip or microfissure that decided today was a good day to die. For a replacement, something with simple, clean lines would be ideal. I don't have a budget but <$300 would be nice. The combined length of both wings was ~80", depth ~24", desk surface height ~29". I don't think I need a single surface, as 2x40" would probably be cheaper and easier to move around. I also need to decide if I want to replace the WFH side since I'm worried its surface is also a ticking time bomb. edit: This is probably a good stop gap for the time being: https://www.ikea.com/us/en/p/linnmon-tabletop-white-00251135  The default would be to go with the black-brown, but I'm intrigued by the white, though it might be a weird contrast with my walls.
