Which one would you choose?

Steelcase is $150 pre-owned, Herman Miller is $150 pre-owned, Dexley is $170 new, and for a bonus Allsteel is $50 pre-owned but has mystery damage. I'm 5'10 260 and I'm currently using a small cat condo as a chair. I'm trying to find stuff on the cheap end. I looked at FB and there are no hidden gem Herman Millers or Steelcase.

The Think has fixed arms, so I would not purchase it.

That blue Herman Miller Celle is quite a chair. Very adjustable and with good forward tilt. It’s just a bit rigid. (Built like a tank though.)

I( have no experience with the Dexley.)

The Allsteel chair has “hidden damage”, so that’s a red flag. I would press to understand what that damage is. Otherwise, it’s a good choice. I like the way the seat cushion, backrest, and arm rests all feel, though I haven’t sat in one for more than a few minutes.

I only have XP with the Think and the Celle. I would choose the Celle. I recently bought the Celle for 60€ just to test it. I liked it quite a bit, so I gifted it to my dad.

Celle or Acuity. Think's are mediocre and Staples chairs are mega shit.
