Can anyone recommend a good ergonomic chair?

I work at a computer in a cubical for 9 to 10 hours a day, and I am starting to think that it would be wise to invest in an office chair that has better ergonomics than the cheap desk chairs they have here at work.

I bought a mesh ergonomic chair for my desk at home, but I don't think it's durable enough for me to be using 9-10 hours every day. It also isn't the most comfortable.

Any suggestions? I'm thinking in the $300 price range.

none, sorry

My employer is 'testing' chairs to replace our 3.5 year old chairs and the 2 we currently have are $899 and $1199 each. The <$500 ones we tested the other week all broke within days.

Interesting. What type of testing did they do to break them within days?

Well, you definitely have to look for a dependable brand since, it will be used for a large part of the day. I am using ergonomic chair by Varier and I haven't experienced any problem with its use.
