You’ve seen the flashy gaming chairs with the racecar vibes. You’ve seen the sleek office chairs with the minimalist design. Both claim to be “ergonomic.” So… which one actually has your back?

If you’re tired of sitting in discomfort and guessing what to buy, you’re not alone.
At Sit Here Now, we help real people find real support—without overpaying or falling for marketing hype.

Let’s break it down.

🎮 The Problem with Most Gaming Chairs

Gaming chairs are built to look cool.
They take design cues from racing seats. Think tall backs, bold stitching, bright colors, and extra padding. But when it comes to actual ergonomic support, many fall short.

Here’s the truth:

Gaming chairs may work for a few hours of play, but if you’re working from home, studying, editing, or running a business, they often create more problems than they solve.

What Makes Office Chairs Different?

High-end office chairs are designed by engineers, not just stylists. They’re built for people who sit for a living.

Think fewer gimmicks, more science.

In short: office chairs prioritize your body. Not just your aesthetic.
