I've been using my dining table chair and my ass is getting sore from all the time spent on it. What's everyone doing for office chairs? Any suggestions for something that's got a good price/performance ratio? I'm not looking to spend a crazy amount of money for a Steelcase or Herman Miller chair      |       https://www.staples.ca/products/9901...sk-chair-black 
Seems to be really popular on redflagdeals I bought one for $179 when it was on sale but have not used it yet.      
This code should give you $20 off.  93258

I have laminate flooring and the original rollers were loud enough to bug me, so I ended up buying these rollers ( https://www.staples.ca/products/7498...rs-black-5pack) which were definitely worth the extra investment. The chair is pretty much silent now when I roll.  
There is also the hack/mod ( https://imgur.com/a/XwE7F) where you mod the head rest to make it more comfortable if you have a longer torso since the stock height could be pressing into your upper back.
