This is the highest-rated office chair at Amazon, ringing in 4.8 stars from almost 500 reviewers. More than 80% of those reviewers gave this chair five stars, which is super impressive. Otherwise, as expected, it has every feature you want in a desk chair — including flip-up arms that move 90º. It swivels, tilts, rocks, and is height-adjustable and it's wrapped in a breathable mesh to ensure it stays looking (and smelling) clean, even after everyday use. It can definitely work in small spaces but the only things we dislike are that it doesn't come in more colors and that it's not the best looking — it's a little basic.

We love the sleek modern style of this office chair which is actually nice and affordable, plus it comes in five colors. If you don't have a dedicated home office, then the PU leather seat won't look weird sitting in your kitchen or bedroom. It sits on wheels, swivels, and is height adjustable. Although thin, its arms are padded with PU leather for comfort, plus it's easy to keep clean thanks to its design. More than 8,000 reviewers also rate this desk chair, and shoppers say it's easy to assemble and great for working from home.

It comes with a removable headrest and lumbar cushion, both of which are perfect for offering the back support you really need.

You can't go wrong with this simple yet sturdy Amazon buy. It's padded for sink-in-ability and is made from soft faux leather. There are a few colors to choose from and the shape makes it work with most homes. But do measure it first if your home is small. It tilts, swivels, and is adjustable in height, and its padded arms will ensure your working day is spent comfortably. Reviewers say it's definitely worth the money and it's super comfortable, but lots of people say it's difficult to put together.

If you haven't seen this seat before, feast your eyes on the TikTok Amazon office chair flooding everyone's FYP. It's not just another TikTok impulse buy either. The Emiah Armless Office Desk Chair has a super wide padded seat which means you can sit cross-legged at your desk. You can push it all the way under your desk as it's armless, which is a bonus and a disadvantage at the same time/ It's ideal for apartments thanks to its slim design. It doesn't sit on wheels which is a total bummer, but it can swivel and it is adjustable in height. It only has 400 reviews, but they are positive with lots of people saying it's super comfortable.
5 things to consider before buying an office chair from Amazon
Why you can trust Real Homes Our expert reviewers spend hours testing and comparing products and services so you can choose the best for you. Find out more about how we test.
There are around 7,000 office chairs on Amazon. Instead of scrolling through unlimited pages, we recommend considering these factors before you make your final decision.
1. Style and support
Ergonomic, executive, task, and stackable styles — there is a big variety of office chair types and each offers different levels of support. If you suffer from back pain, an executive chair's height and padding will give you great support. Though we'd suggest an ergonomic option for anyone who finds themselves sitting down for more than a few hours at a time. These fit the curve of your lower back, relieving pressure and pain. If support isn't a priority, then swivel chairs offer comfort without the technical fuss.
2. Adjustability
Almost every chair on this list has height and arm adjustment, which should be at the top of your chair checklist. Why? Fitting your chair to you and your work desk will make all the difference in your posture. If more than one person is planning on using the chair, this feature is essential.
3. Material
There are leather, mesh, and padded chairs to choose from. While this mainly comes down to personal preference and whether it fits with your current home aesthetic, the type of material can impact your comfort.
4. Wheel base
Most office chairs have a wheeled base, which is important for limiting strain and improving your mobility while seated. Choosing between a swivel or caster style matters, too. We'd suggest opting for a swivel chair that can move 360 degrees.
5. What is the delivery time and how much is delivery?
Not everything gets delivered for free at Amazon, so it's best to double-check before you make this decision. Also, take a look at the lead time of the product if you need it ASAP.
If you can wait, it might be worth holding out until Amazon Prime Day (which is usually in the summer) as you should be able to make a decent saving on an Amazon office chair during this period.
