Here are our top 8 picks for the best home office chairs:

white office chair with wood desk

1. This sleek bonded leather office chair has built-in lumbar support.

This Realspace Modern Comfort Manager Chair from Office Depot/OfficeMax is loved by multiple Hip2Save team members! It has lumbar support built into the backrest to keep you comfortable through even the longest workday. This mid-back chair is available in your choice of black or white and has a sleek, professional look to compliment any office décor.

“I love the look of the chair – it is really stylish and comfortable. I love the white color as it looks fresh and cheery as opposed to other office chairs that are typically dark in color. I sit in it every day for 10+ hours and it has not let me down in the 4+ years since I bought it! I love it just as much as I did on day one. I still like the clean white modern look (fits with most any decor!) and I find it to be very comfortable (there are days when I sit in it for well over 8 hours!). I appreciate the fact that it has wheels and it’s super easy to adjust the height.” – Bryn, Hip team member

“When I moved into my new home, I needed a new chair for my new office! A couple members of the Hip team owned and recommended this Realspace chair, so I ordered one and was able to assemble it myself in no time! I have now been in my house for going on 3 years, and my chair is still in great shape! It’s super comfortable and durable – the pets have yet to destroy it like previous office chairs 😅 I highly recommend this chair!” – Jenna P., Hip team member

white armless desk chair

2. This armless desk chair is perfect for anyone who likes to sit cross-legged or share their seat with a furry coworker!

The PUKAMI Armless Desk Chair is an elegant blend of comfort and style! Its gently U-shape design gradually releases pressure on the back and hips, providing strong support for a long day of sitting. The lack of armrests allows you the freedom to sit comfortably in multiple different positions, too!

“I have this chair and absolutely love it! There is lots of room to sit however you find most comfortable! You can sit criss-cross-applesauce with ease and have your legs supported by the chair! My cats also love this chair and will often come and sit beside me as there is plenty of room for us both!”Angie, Hip team member

“I snagged this roomy chair on a whim last summer after one of my teammates talked about it and I’m so glad I did. It allows you to sit comfortably in multiple positions. And because I’m in it for hours each day, I can attest to the fact that it is both comfy and supportive. I did not enjoy the feeling of being ‘stuck’ so I swapped out the base to add wheels and now it’s perfect.”Cass, Hip team member

3. This cross-legged office chair from Amazon is another attractive armless option.

Amazon’s Sweetcrispy armless office chair is a great choice for anyone who likes to change positions throughout the day. Although it’s a desk chair with no wheels, it does swivel, rotate, and rock for plenty of movement. This armless chair has a roomy seat that allows you to sit pretzel-style or in a variety of other comfy positions.

Hubby assembled it with no issues. Of course, he’s a pro because I have tried so many chairs! THIS one is it. I fell and have a hip issue. Every chair has been uncomfortable in one way or the other. This chair is excellent! It has great cushioning and is wide enough for me to squirm around in it if I’m having a day of more pain than usual. I am so happy with this chair it is hard to put into words. I’ve paid so much more for “ergonomic” chairs – but this one is the bomb! Looks good, too. Just as pictured.Amazon reviewer

4. Amazon’s best-selling mesh office chair is great for small spaces.

This highly-rated mid-back mesh chair is one of Amazon’s best sellers. Reviewers love it for its breathability, mid-back lumbar support, and smooth swivel. It’s just right for small office spaces and it’s especially loved by people of smaller stature. This chair is available in a fun assortment of colors to compliment any office space.

I have had this chair going on 4 years now and she has stood up to just about everything!! Piles of doom being stacked on her, toddlers/kids playing on and with her, using her as a winter coat rack 🤦🏻‍♀️, me working on it from 1 hr/day 4 years ago up to 6+ hrs/ day currently. This chair has been put through it all and is still holding strong 💪🏼!!!! I cannot say enough good things about this chair. COMPLETELY WORTH IT!!!Amazon reviewer

5. This high-back office chair provides plush, all-day comfort.

Update your office with this sophisticated Mcallum Bonded Leather Manager Chair from Staples. This office chair features a high back and padded armrests for a long day of comfortable sitting. It’s available in both black or gray bonded leather for a touch of elegance in your workspace.

“I love my office chair from Staples! I’ve had it for 5 years and it is still in good shape! I bought it on sale and it was a steal! It’s been a durable office chair, but also the kids use it to spin each other regularly.” 😂 – Jenna P., Hip team member

black office chair

6. Ikea’s MILLBERGET Swivel Chair is a highly-rated, affordable choice.

This desk chair from IKEA (in black and white) has adjustable height and tilt features that allow you to set the resistance to suit your preference. It also has built-in lumbar support and safety casters with a pressure-sensitive brake mechanism to keep the chair in place when you stand up. The casters are designed for soft floors too, so no floor protector is required!

7. This mesh office chair provides padding and breathability in all the right places!

The molded back offers just the right amount of lumbar support, while the adjustable seat and arms let you find the perfect configuration for your body.

8. Made by Serta, this office chair is the next best thing to working from bed!

Serta’s Smart Layers AIR Arlington executive chair is made with the same technology used to make their mattresses. The flexible AIR lumbar zone moves with you as it supports your lower back, and the layered foam cushioning cradles your body in plush comfort.

“Before buying this chair from Office Depot, I bought three other chairs and took each one back. It’s a good looking chair, easy to assemble, a little on the heavy side (but that just means it’s sturdy), and, most importantly, it feels great to sit in. Good bottom comfort, excellent back support. Costs a little more, but well worth the money. The warranty on this chair is ten years, as opposed to five years on the others I tried. I suspect there’s a reason for that.” Office Depot reviewer
