"Ritchey's seat of choice is the Cooler Master Ergo L, a gaming chair that doubles as a serious office workhorse. While it's marketed to gamers, Ritchey points out that many high-level gaming chairs are essentially well-designed ergonomic office chairs with cool color accents and aesthetic details. While you're essentially paying for style on top of substance, the substance itself is actually real."
"What makes this chair stand out is its adjustability. Beyond the standard seat height adjustment, the Ergo L features armrests that can adjust down (crucial for sliding under his raised desk at day's end), a seat pan that lets Ritchey fine-tune the seat depth to support his thighs without pressing into the backs of his knees, and adjustable lumbar support."
"Ritchey is quick to note, however, that no chair is a magic bullet. You can't just spend $1,000 on a Herman Miller and expect everything to be fixed. A chair has to be part of a comprehensive strategy: You need to know how to adjust it, how to sit in it, and how to set up the rest of your workstation around it."
The Cooler Master Ergo L functions as both a gaming chair and a capable office workhorse. Many premium gaming chairs are fundamentally well-designed ergonomic office chairs with stylistic accents, so part of the cost pays for appearance. The Ergo L excels in adjustability, including downward-adjusting armrests, a tunable seat pan for proper thigh support, and adjustable lumbar support. No single chair solves posture or comfort by itself; effective seating requires knowing how to adjust the chair, how to sit correctly, and how to arrange the rest of the workstation. The Ergo L is no longer available, and other gaming and office chairs have been evaluated as alternatives.
