Comfortable chair for prolonged use (Dxracer, akracing?)

[Jordsk]

Eyeing up a DXracer f series as my current chair is some cheap officeworks one and is terribly uncomfortable...

Is there any other notable chairs I should consider. I've been told if i were to order at my local store it could take up to a month to get one in. But theres one on the dxracer for $369 delivered that I will probably buy.

Any suggestions

I've got a Dx-Racer King Series and I'm pretty satisfied with it. I'm also fairly large, at 5'10" and 250lbs but it works out good for me because the headrest/neck pillow is actually right at my neck. It's also really nice because it can go pretty virtually flat while reclining and still stay balanced.

The only downside I really have for it is DXRacer REQUIRES that someone sign for the package, or they won't leave it there, so someone has to be home to do it. I live alone and had to pick mine up from the UPS store, which was actually kind of a big hassle because the package does weigh a lot, and i live in a 2nd floor apartment.

I've had a maxnomic for a year now and I use it for > 5 hours a day and it's great. I'm 6'0" and 180, so I opted for the taller chair back and the neck rest is right where it should be.

Oh yeah probably should have mentioned that im 185cm 65kg pretty slim I guess and that I live in australia.
King series looks nice but I sat in a display model some time ago, and it was an f series and it felt pretty nice!

my current chair doesn't even recline at all. Most likely will get this:

Assuming all models come with the headrest and lumbar support?

Yes, all the models seem to come withe headrest and lumbar support. if you're a thinner/lighter person the f series is probably right for you. The main differences between the series is what height and weight they're better suited for.
