      How are you finding it? My chair just broke, so I'm in the market.

      how much of a bargain are we talking about? back of the lorry for 40 quid?

      Wow. Does it also go back in time and stuff?

      ROFL! @ Ian.

      Nice chair.

      oooh, one of the guys at work just got one of these, it's a thing of beauty!

      A thing of beauty it's not, in my opinion, but still not half bad looking.

      Patrick: it wasn't back-of-a-lorry cheap - I got a receipt, a warranty and a manual. Still about half price though which was good enough for me.

      Drew: It's good. I wrote a review.

      well, it's not beautiful to look at, but in terms of engineering and comfort, I've not used anything better.

    8. clagnut (82 months ago | reply)

      In that, you are entirely correct, Pip.

      You won't regret it. It's one of the best office purchases I've ever made - second only to my Mac!

      if you want an alternative at a lower price point (possibly not lower than Richards), have a look at www.back2.co.uk/products/atwork/HAG/hag_ho4_4 200.html

      it's about £400 but it's one of the most comfortable chairs I've had. The other chairs we've got are the aeron (good for comfort, not good for my back) and the rh4 (http://www.the-comfort-shop.co.uk/rh_chair_p age.htm)
      which is the best orthopaedic chair I've tried. Aeron's look the business though!
