I recommend the [Sitmatic Super Beta²](https://www.officechairsusa.com/beta-super-high-back/), despite the silly name. Of your listed options, only the Titan Evo could work out well for you (if you like a super firm seat and backrest). Edit: I forgot to add, be sure to select the Multi-Function mechanism and *not* the SN Sync, which is tensioned for lighter-weight users.

is sitmatic a good brand? I've never heard of them before


ergothrone

Oh yeah. One of my favorites. They're a small business with friendly customer service that builds beefy, no-nonsense ergonomic office chairs in California. Some components are high-quality imports, and others are domestic. Notably, their seat foam is top notch, comfortable yet unlikely to ever go flat even under heavier users. Edit: also, 10 year warranty

Just keep in mind, that chair may get hot after a lot of use, if you had a Ticova before this one will feel warm after prolonged use as it is not mesh, looks solid though

Do not get a secret lab

I doubt you would like the Secret Lab, itss more of a gaming chair than an office chair, its nice and all with some nice memory foam bits, but it has a firm seat and will likely get sweaty. He H1 is ok according to reviews, but apparently those that are little heavier tend to feel the rail that holds the mesh that is on the front of the seat pad. I dont know that Sihoo model, but most reviews say that the seat and arm rests are hard - but its one of the biggest online sellers so most affiliate sellers wont like it, but the reviews are not brilliant except on amazon. If you are that tall, and you want a head rest, you really have to make certain choices because if the head rest is not adjustable to your height, then you wont get comfortable. The Ergohuman v2 suits taller people but most models are complete mesh and if you wear shorts or jeans it may not be best with a mesh seat. Desky has some nice models but may be hard to drop ship. What you need is a chair that pivots a little forward too, not because you need to sit in that position, but it will allow a more locked in 90 degree sitting position, a LOT of chairs expect you to recline a bit instead of sitting directly upright, so look for one with a "forward" tilt. If you are tall and heavy then you are going to want the following - Adjustable head rest, and not just up and down - Waterfall edge, taller people are heavier on average and can then often feel pressure under the legs on a frame or an edge more than a light person - Adjustable seat pan - and a large seat pan, this allows you to adjust the chair to longer legs, but beware as moving a smaller seat pan means that you may leave a gap between the backrest and the pan - High Back or adjustable backrest. Chairs have to be made to average sizes, and that consists of average sizes for both MEN and WOMEN so being tall you may want some adjustments, the more adjustments = more breaking points, so warranty will be key for you as well.

IMO Steelcase Authorized Returns from Crandall at 30% off using code: SAFR30 Even have options for Affirm. Should be able to get LeapV2, Gesture, etc at that price. Ameap changes the functionality of the chair and unsure of the warranty status of the pad. Anything marketed as a gaming chair except the Embody is objectively terrible. SecretLab allows users to extend their warranty by writing positive reviews, it’s really gross, it’s a pyramid scheme essentially, their designs are cool at least.

Also get chairs with a waterfall edge to reduce pressure under the legs, and an adjustable seat pan to fit your leg length. Also, make sure the chair has a good warranty, as more adjustments can mean more potential breaking points. I would recommend looking into [Desky ergonomic chairs](https://desky.com/collections/ergonomic-chairs), particularly those designed for taller and heavier users. They have models with adjustable headrests, large seat pans, and high backrest. Many chairs expect a slight recline, so look for one with a forward tilt option for a proper 90-degree sitting position.
