Is an expensive office chair worth it?

If you sit 8+ hours daily, absolutely. A $1,000 chair with a 12-year warranty costs $0.23/day. Compared to potential back pain, chiropractor visits, and lost productivity, it is one of the best investments you can make.

How do I choose between Aeron and Leap?

Aeron if you want mesh breathability and precise zone support. Leap if you want a more traditional cushioned feel and LiveBack spinal flex. Both are excellent. Try both if possible — it is largely personal preference.
