If you spend your working day at a desk, few things matter more than your chair. A good one will support your back, encourage healthy posture and keep you comfy from the first coffee of the morning to the last email of the evening. A bad one may leave you in serious pain, for years.

The problem is that quality ergonomic chairs rarely come cheap. Which is exactly why Amazon Prime Day is such a good time to buy one.

I've rounded up five of the best office chair deals on Amazon in the US and UK, covering everything from bargain models to high-end ones. Crucially, every chair here has been tested by our reviewers, so you know you'll be buying quality. Whatever your budget, there's a Prime Day saving here worth grabbing.

HAG Capisco
Best for standing
Save $171
HAG Capisco: was $1,134 now $963 at Amazon

The Capisco is my own favourite office chair, because the unusual saddle seat style encourages me to keep shifting between sitting, perching and standing. It's firmer than a conventional chair, but it's ideal if you use a standing desk, and it looks like quirkily stylish too.

Sihoo M18: was £169.99 now £123.44 at Amazon

Our reviewer gave the M18 a rare five stars, calling it the new gold standard for budget ergonomic chairs. Its wide W-shaped seat, breathable mesh back and excellent headrest make it comfortable for long sessions, and it looks far smarter than its price suggests.

Sihoo M57: was £229.99 now £161.43 at Amazon

With 3D armrests, an adjustable headrest and a cushioned lumbar support that our reviewer called the star of the show, the M57 does ergonomics well for the money. It's mesh throughout, so it keeps you cool, though very tall users may find it a bit of a squeeze.

So which should you choose? In the US, the Branch Ergonomic Chair Pro offers the best balance of comfort, adjustability and looks we've found, while the Branch Verve is the one for design lovers. The Hinomi H2 Pro is ideal if you're tall or love tweaking every detail. And if you're happy to rethink how you work altogether, the HAG Capisco remains in a class of its own.

In the UK, the Sihoo M18 is the easy pick if you're on a budget: it's comfortable, stylish and remarkably well designed for the price, though it arrives in a lot of pieces. The Sihoo M57 is a solid option if you want 3D armrests and an all-mesh design, while the Steelcase Gesture is a premium chair built to last for years.

Whichever you go for, check the height range before you buy, as even the best chair won't help if it doesn't fit your body. And remember, Prime Day deals will only last for a few more hours!
