Looking for desk chair: any suggestions?
I'm looking for a good quality desk chair, to use while I'm doing homework and at my computer. I want one that swivels/has wheels, adjustable height and arms.
Does anyone have any suggestions, or know anyone who is selling one? I've looked at Ikea, Staples, etc., and they're all pretty expensive.

I was at ikea, looking along the same lines as you: Cheap, but comfy (meaning swivel, wheels, etc.)... They had one that was really popular. I think it was called Moses.

Check it. $60.

If you've got an extra grand burning in your pocket nothing beats an Aeron.
