    The chair i'm using now is something like this:

    As you can imagine it wasn't very comfortable to sit on.

    I spent almost 16hours per day sitting on it, and now I'm trying to look for a new chair before my kyphosis (hunch back) get worse.

    So now i'm trying to look for something as comfortable as this:

    Any recommended shop in Klang or Klang Valley? Prefer one with a lot of selection.
    Budget is Below RM250 (Hopefully include delivery)

    Lol! Small chair, it will give your back other than the kyphosis! :haha:

    Well... Ikea chairs are a good buy and sometimes cheap when they are in some sort of jumble sale. They are comfortable too!:thumb:

    Ikea is definitely a good place to shop for a chair.
    But it's a bit too far from my place, that's why i'm hoping to get some ikea's alternatives.

    I tried Ikea chairs, not really that good actually. And most of them are overpriced.

    If you want something comfortable, you must really try it out for yourself. So, head over to the LARGEST furniture mall in your area and try out all their chairs. Of course, you probably won't get a good deal, but you never know.

    To be sure, go look for a small mom & pop kind of furniture shop once you know what chair suits you best. They will very likely not have the chair you want but most will have plenty of catalogs for you to look through. Once you ID the chair you want in their catalogs, you can get them to order it for you and it should usually cost much less than getting from a major furniture store.

    As for IKEA chairs, well, most of them ARE overpriced but there are still some bargains to be had. There are two office chairs there that are pretty good deals if you find them suitable. Alternatively, you can scour the As Is section for discounted items.

    Well... that's the table. Chairs do not have the front part, only except the arm rest.

    Like what Adrian and Chai said, try these chairs in the furniture shops first nearby your home. If there's discounts in Ikea, you can actually check them out too! :thumb:

    There are some reasonable Ikea chairs, but only limited to a few models. You can try those. Otherwise, go elsewhere to find.

    Some chairs, meant for tutorial use, have a small side table that can be stowed away. But you might as well just get a regular chair and use a table for your keyboard and mouse! :D

    That's true, but I thought it will be useful when I want to take my meal in front of my pc...

    Maybe I should get a wheelchair instead. :wall:

    LOL!! Not a bad idea since wheelchairs are comfortable and have really large wheels which are very good for moving around. However, I think they are all short and cannot be elevated so you will either have to use a low table or prop yourself up with cushions! :D

    Wow... having meals in front of a PC? You need a big desk probably, coupled with a comfortable chair.

    not sleep..more like collapsed, maybe should get a high-back wheelsofa.

    Better get a silicon rubber cover for your keyboard, in case you drool over it when you fall asleep!! :twisted: :haha:

    I should do that more so I can flood my current keyboard with saliva :twisted:

    Been waiting for a chance/reason/excuse to buy a Logitech G19 :pray:

    fapDaddy said Lacusly, "my keyboard spoiled, need a new keyboard, and cheap keyboard no good, so I buy Logitech G19" :lol:

    "BTW, whoever queued up for more than an hour to buy it for me will looks sexy in the dark" :thumb:

    You should look for a chair that has a built-in cup holder too! :lol:

    I won't need that since I drink water from a bottle which has a straw that extend near my mouth. :wicked:

    Refilling that bottle is quite troublesome though. :(

    Too bad I don't own a digicam, or else I can show you guys my lazyland. :mrgreen:

    So how about toilet time? The same "automation" process? :haha:
