Ha, ha..
Pretty good prices on those though.
Was the second one more comfortable? It seems like it would be the other way around from the pics.
i want the one from costco, $249.99 :(
I've never regretted getting a nice chair. The net backing keeps you cooler and the extra cushion is muy bueno.

Everyone that sits in it for the first time goes "oOoo" It's well made too. Looks pretty much the way it did when I bought it a couple years ago.

I think it depends upon your body dimensoins and how you sit. I currently have a slightly larger sized chair like the first one but I'm not esepcially tall (5'10") so the seat cushion is just barely long enough. I find myself slouching a lot so my knees aren't right at the edge of the chair - this ends up as a tradeoff between some back stiffness and knee stiffness.
Staples also has something very similar to 'en fuego' which occasionally goes on sale for $75. Add on a coupon from email or a site like this: http://www.ccccpn.com/staples/ (I've used that before) and you could be out the door for like $55.

I bought 2 $150 chairs for $89 each from there last week for my wife and I. State contract prices ftw. ;)

And how exactly do you get 'state contract prices'?

Yes, but what does stink is that it doesn't combine with other coupons. I had a $15 off one on me and not only would it not apply, but the cashier kept it.
We have a site that lists everything. Chairs and firesafes have the biggest discount so far I discovered. So its anywhere from 10-40%.
Regardless, they're similar to Staples and regularly have specials on chairs anyway.

Are 'state contract prices' intended for state government use or private use?

I've got the first one that I use at home. I find it very comfortable and worth the full price. I bought it a year ago and its still holding strong. This is a great deal! ^_^

Both. We get a Retail Connect printout that they scan.

Ya, it is.
But I thought I'd try one that I can adjust the angle of the backrest and angle of the seat. It doesn't rock/lean back though. It might take a little getting used to. If I don't, I'll take it in and exchange it for the other.
