Re: Gaming/office chairs
Not sure how frequently, but they do have sales as I got mine on discount.
Re: Gaming/office chairs
That's the exact chair I am sat in typing this - can't recommend it highly enough. No idea about their black friday offers but as it is just around the corner would say it is worth waiting and seeing.Achtung Englander wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 11:43 amwe are getting closer to Black Friday / Boxing Day
Shall I wait out to the sales to buy from Secret Lab - do they do sales ?
Looking to get this https://secretlab.co.uk/collections/omega-series

Re: Gaming/office chairs
I've only had my Titan for a week and a half and I've never sat in an Omega, but I can't help but think that paying the extra for a Titan would be worth it. The flatter seat profile means I can vary my seating position more (I sometimes fold one leg under the other; I don't think I could do that with the raised sides of the Omega), and I'd definitely miss the adjustable lumbar support.
I was kicking myself when I realised a few days after buying that I probably ought to have waited until the end of the month for a potential sale. A brief googling suggests they've done 30% off in the past.

Re: Gaming/office chairs
See one of the reasons I went for a Secret Labs chair is that I suffer from lower back issues. Despite this, I am an absolute twat who will happily sit on one leg as you mention above despite it being horrifically bad for my lumbar spine - exactly where my issues live. For me it was a conscious decision to buy a chair that you sit in 'properly'. That said, I have spent more time sat in this chair over the past 9 months than I would ever have expected and it is so damned comfortable.Raid wrote: ↑Fri Nov 13, 2020 10:06 pmI've only had my Titan for a week and a half and I've never sat in an Omega, but I can't help but think that paying the extra for a Titan would be worth it.

Re: Gaming/office chairs
Fair enough, I suppose that makes sense. Although now I'm worrying that I might have been damaging my spine for ten years without realising.
Re: Gaming/office chairs
Good posture is never a bad thing, as you get older you become more prone to issues like that. In my case though, I have a deformation of one of my lumbar vertebrae (spondylolysis of Pars inter-articularum to be specific) where the inter-articularum - the little protrusions that limit the movement of the vertebra - have not formed on L5. It is fairly common but the result in my case was a prolapsed disc which means a permanent weakening of that disc as well as a predeliction for back pain and leg cramps. If I sit awkwardly I don't always notice until I get up, and then I really feel it, hence buying a chair that encourages good posture when sitting.

Haha was just coming here after seeing the price drops.
Whatever you do, don't look on their site on Friday. I mean, the price might be the same, but it might not...
Either way, you have just bought the best gaming/work chair you have ever owned, welcome to the club!

Re: Gaming/office chairs
yep = its done. I already deleted the bookmark. If goes any lower in price, there is nothing I could do about that. Just glad to join this club. Looking forward to it.

Re: Gaming/office chairs
Chair tuned up today (about 6 weeks from ordering).
Yes it is great. Installing was relatively painless as the instructions were really clear.
No more back pain

Not really any relevance.
Re: Gaming/office chairs
I made a chair out of staples, it's bloody torture.
