How to choose
You might be wondering how to choose the best office chair to buy during Black Friday, given that there are so many options. After several years of reviewing the best ergonomic office chairs, I think there are three key areas that you need to think about when searching for your next office chair. They are:
Budget
It's a good idea to have a price range in mind before you even start looking for your next office chair. Luckily for you, I'll be focussing on the best value chair deals this Black Friday, but they will still range massively in price. For example, I'm hoping to see my favourite ergo chair, the Herman Miller Aeron, with as much as 50% off this Black Friday. That still only takes the price down to around $750!
However, you can still get a very decent ergo chair for a fraction of that price. Ultimately, it all depends on your budget, and on how much you're willing to pay this Black Friday.
Ergonomics & adjustability
All good ergonomic office chairs have adjustable lumbar support, for your lower back, and an adjustable design – whether that's in the armrest, the chair seat, or the backrest. As a rule of thumb, the more adjustable options the better.
However, there are many approaches to lumbar support that I believe are more gimmick than great engineering. I strongly advise that if you find a chair you like the look of, at a price you can afford, read up on customer reviews that detail the lumbar support. I will provide my experience where I can, but you should definitely check out user comments where you can.
Materials
The material will drastically affect the price of the chair that you can buy. If you want a leather chair, it's going to cost you. However, there are cheaper materials that are actually better at offering breathability to your many desk hours. Mesh materials are very popular and good at offering a comfortable sitting experience. They're super durable too, and also offer myriad colour options.

When is Black Friday 2025?
Black Friday typically falls on the Friday after Thanksgiving in the United States and is also the last Friday in November, which in 2025 will be November 28. The Monday after this date is known as Cyber Monday, which will fall on December 1, 2025. We find that most Black Friday sales actually start a few weeks before this though, so there's no need to wait until the big day.
