Question by : Is a good quality leather desk chair a good investment/piece of furniture to buy to upgrade my office area?
I want to buy a nice leather desk chair for my office area. Is it really worth it to spend over $100 for one?

You can find chairs that are in the $100 dollar range that are comfortable to sit in. I could never justify spending $800 on the herman miller chair, even though it is the most popular chair. (Pretty sure its on GSA contract for government employees now everyone is getting them)

Leather is the professional look but if its a home office where you aren't meeting with clients/customers go for comfort. Something that promotes good posture but doesn't feel like you're sitting on a rock. Mesh back chairs in my opinion are the most comfortable but tend to run a bit higher price.

Some features to look for are:

Pneumatic seat height adjustment
360° Swivel
Seat glide mechanism
Tilt Tension
Tilt lock
Synchro-tilt
Adjustable arm height

Hope this helps!
