I've learned in my life that there are a few products worth spending a little more of my money on: A nice mattress, three-ply toilet paper, and a comfortable chair. We spend so much of our lives sitting at our desks, so why not get a chair that supports your spine and posture? It can make a world of difference for long hours spent gaming or working. Black Friday may be the best and only time you invest in new things, so give yourself the comfort you deserve.

From budget gaming chairs under $500 to high-end ergonomic chairs that double as work and play, check out the best deals you can get on our favorite gaming chairs for Black Friday.
TL;DR: Top Gaming Chair Black Friday Deals
Priced Low-to-High:
1. Best Overall Deal: Razer Enki X Gaming Chair for $300
IGN's most comfortable gaming chair on a budget
One of our favorite gaming chairs is included in Amazon's Black Friday sales. The Razer Enki X can tilt from 90 to 160 degrees, and the seat can adjust in height from 17.7-21.6". It's got built-in lumbar support, which is going to come in handy for longer gaming sessions at your desk. It sports a mixture of faux leather and fabric so it breathes well, too.
What Gaming Chair Expert, Chris Coke, Said in His Review of the Razer Enki: "The Razer Enki surprised me with how comfortable it is. At $399, it’s premium-priced but offers the kind of all-day comfort, seamless style, and premium build gamers demand. Its lumbar doesn’t quite match the Secretlab Titan Evo, but it remains a comfortable sit over entire workdays and beyond."
2. Best Office Chair Deal: FlexiSpot Ergonomic Chair for $150
In our review of the higher-end FlexiSpot C7, Bill Loguidice said, "The FlexiSpot C7 is a solid chair. For the price, however, I would have preferred a more premium-feeling leather or leather-like material instead of fabric, as well as more attention to some other aspects like cushioning. I also found the fact that you can't lock the wrist rests in place an occasional annoyance. If you don't mind some of its quirks and prize adjustment in a chair, then the C7 makes a good choice. Compared to straight-up gaming chairs, its sedate styling means it won't be out of place in even the most conservative of office environments. If you'd like a flashier or more luxurious offering, however, look elsewhere."
The chair currently on sale is substantially less expensive, meaning you'll get that same "office" look and general build and comfort, just without the dedicated lumbar section.
Premium Ergonomic Picks:
This Secretlab NeueChair is ergonomic and the bottom and back are made of mesh, very similar to the Herman Miller Aeron chair I use. While it is certainly more expensive than the other options, I have found chairs like this to be the pinnacle of comfort, even as I work long 12-hour days at my desk. While my eyes may get tired from staring at screens, my posterior never complains. It's kinda wild, but certainly worth highlighting, particularly because I know I'll never buy another type of chair for myself ever again.
3. Best Rocking Chair Deal: Tufted Floor Rocker for $120
Back in the day, most of the "chilling in front of the TV" crowd piled onto beanbag chairs. While those are still certainly around and have made a big comeback, the floor rocker has become a modern rival in the gaming space, giving you the benefit of back support and a higher vantage point while you game from the comfort of your living room. If you want to keep yourself rocking for a very affordable price, this is a great choice for console gamers who want something different than their couch.
4. Best Ergonomic Chair Deal Under $500: Branch Verve
This Branch Verve chair is a top pick for a mid-tier budget. It is built for comfort and long hours at a desk PC gaming six points of adjustment, including seat height and depth, armrest height, lumbar height, tilt and tilt lock, and tilt tension, so you'll have options to customize it. Branch has branded itself as "made to last," so if you want to buy a chair that gives you the ability to work for a full day comfortably and for years to come, look no further.
5. Best Gaming Chair Deal Under $100: Homall
If you want a much less expensive take on the "classic gaming chair" aesthetic, the Homall gaming chair is a solid pick. It comes with a lumbar pillow, two-tone color scheme, and racer chair wings to keep you locked in during gaming sessions and working sessions. If the lower price tag makes you sceptical, know this model is backed by thousands of good reviews (4.3 average on Amazon) and is considered the classic gaming chair.
6. Best Premium Gaming Chair Deal: Secretlab Titan Evo for $519
Secretlab's Black Friday sale is a go! Secretlab is one of the premier gaming chair manufacturers, and the company usually participates in big sales events. Black Friday is no exception, and Secretlab has a broad spectrum of really nice gaming chairs discounted, including the Titan series – our favorite gaming chairs. There are also deals on Secretlab gaming desks to check out too, if you're in need of an upgrade.
In our 9/10 Secretlab Titan Evo Review, Chris Coke said: "The Secretlab Titan Evo is the first gaming chair in years that really feels like an evolution of the formula while still keeping the stylish racing-seat look. It may be expensive, but the benefits in all-day comfort are well worth the added cost."

Walmart has a killer deal on this RGB gaming desk right now for just $60. You can't beat that.
Premium Gaming Desk Option: Secretlab Magnus for $549
In IGN's 9/10 Secretlab Magnus Desk Review, Nic Vargus wrote: "I can’t remember the last time a company forayed into a new category with a product as opinionated and confident as the Magnus. It’s minimalistic and stylish, the magnetic ecosystem is far more than a gimmick, and it has an RGB system that succeeds in feeling gamer-y without feeling niche. But best of all, the rear hinge and cord management is nothing short of a revelation. While height constraints and questions around accessory durability remain, the Magnus is more than a promising start."
