Quasimodo in need of a new office chair

[RunninTeach]

My computer desk chair needs to be replaced. As the thread title suggests, I tend to have issues with my back and was wondering if anyone could recommend an ergonomic chair that’s reasonably-priced. I’ve looked at reviews for some different chairs on Amazon and Staples, including the kneeling style (see below) but I'm undecided. Any suggestions/input would be much-appreciated!

The kneeling style seems like a good idea, but be sure to try them out in person. I had one back in the 80's and it bothered my knees (I think one that put less weight on the knees and a bit more on the butt would have been fine).

I did end up ordering a kneeling chair. Thanks for responding, Kathryn!

I bought a Balans chair

last year and it was the best purchased I have made! My back and butt do not get tired from sitting in front of the computer for a long time.

Ooh, one of those high-end jobbies...sweet! I had to go with a more entry-level option, but I'll say, having used it only two days, I love it! Or I should say, my back loves it.
