An ergonomic chair offers many health benefits. A proper work chair, for example, can prevent abnormal strain on the neuromuscular system, according to a 2012 research paper published by the National Institute of Health. Better posture support, reduced back and neck pain, and better circulation are some of the benefits, as the chair helps maintain alignment of the spine, neck, and hips. Chairs with headrests also add back and shoulder support, according to Open Access Government.
If you're shopping for an office chair and don't want to spend a ton of money on bigger brands like Herman Miller, there are plenty of affordable options on sale today. We've picked out some of the best deals on designer office chair dupes before you decide to make a bigger investment. While these models don't necessarily have all the research and development that more premium brands, like Steelcase, need, our latest Dealmaster offerings provide a great entry point for those new to ergonomic chairs.

Herman Miller
Herman Miller's Aeron Chair has been a fan favorite of our editorial staff and office workers for years due to its comfortable design. No one wants a sweaty back after a long day at work, and the Aeron's use of mesh construction for the backrest and seat helps prevent heat from being trapped during long periods of sitting. /p>
"[The Aeron] helped accelerate the acceptance of high-priced task chairs at home as well as in the office, and it became known as both a great chair and also the accessory office fashion de rigeur in the Dot Com Bubble days,” our editors noted in our Chairs Technica roundup.
The mesh is also very comfortable to sit on and wraps around your body like a sturdy hammock. The downside is that the Aeron can be very expensive, as it's designed for big-budget businesses, but our editors found plenty of value and benefits in the adjustable armrests, lumbar support, and stellar warranty in case wear of the mesh.
