If you want a decent chair that can withstand heavy use and wear and tear, here's the solution.

The price may seem high for a one-off purchase, but the durability and quality of the product will ensure years of use.

My son has had this Navigator Office Chair since 2014 and bought it 2 years second hand.
The only failure has been one of the wheels getting stuck and that was fixed by replacing all the wheels (~25$), again extending the life.

I have had that Director Office Chair since 2021 and have found nothing to complain about. Still like new.
And I can sit in it for really long days without getting tired.

For the Record I will be connecting this to the chair ....

I'm getting one of these two chairs. I'm going to be getting it with the locks and center fill. The only device I will connecting to it will be the AH64 Collective for now which is why I'm getting the removable center cut out fill, If I want to center mount my Stick or attach my thottle at a later date I can but right now I only want to attach the collective.

I already have two regular Monstertech deskmounts and a long monstertech Deskmount.

I have a couple of dumbbells to give me something to do while I climb out

I got mine today and it's pretty comfortable. I sit a little higher than my old chair so I need to raise my monitor a bit. I brought a couple kettle bells and a rubber band device in from the garage. They stow pretty nice right next to it in the closet when not in use.

Just need a margarita machine in the office and I'm all set.

I love the damn things. I don't mind being called a Nancy for it either, leaves more for me. We like to make a pitcher on Fridays and watch the grass grow from the patio. About to go pull the blender out in a bit.

I can imagine why the margaritas are popular, as you spin twirl and glide on your wheeled chair. I can't use it, so I opted for a sturdy office chair which I can hold steady my favorite beverage.  :cool:
