Chair

@pindac as long as it it’s an eject button you’re safe. Lol

@rick_n which replica do you have and how old is it? How is it holding up?

@wsrrsw I’m looking for something comfortable, not too bulky, with good back support and for the chair not to be above my ears (my current one is and it’s screwing up the experience a bit). 
Budget - want to stay under $3,000 ideally. 

I see used stress less all the time at pretty good prices. I bought mine new. There is a ring you can buy to elevate it 2” of it feels too low. 

I had similar issues, no recliner or ottoman for me...I had my surgeon and physical therapist tell me what type of chair would work...what is comfortable in the showroom and even for weeks after, may not be good in the long run...if it's that bad audphile1 I strongly recommend a professional recommendation...

@jl35 it’s not that bad when it’s good :) but I feel discomfort in my lower back after 20-30min in my current chair. If my back is already sore then forget about it altogether. So I need something that wouldn’t exacerbate the problem. 
I’m thinking the Eames replicas are pretty cheap to try. I see few used Stressless around my area and might check them out as well. I’m not aware of a furniture store around north jersey that carries stressless but am in process of researching it. Don’t want to blind buy it to discover it’s not a fit.
