They're quite comfortable if you get the right size and adjust it as you like. Also build quality is a big part of it. I'm sitting on one I bought 10 years ago

They're quite comfortable if you get the right size and adjust it as you like. Also build quality is a big part of it. I'm sitting on one I bought 10 years ago and it's still showing no signs of giving up. Meanwhile during that time a friend of mine has thrown out 3 ~$200 chairs already.
