I have the Bathurst chair from Officeworks. It's categorised as a gaming chair, but it's comfy and supportive for general use. For $168 I think it's as good as the $400+chairs. If you have an Officeworks near you it's worth just going in and trying some of the display models.
Sitting on one now, and can concur. It's not fancy but been solid for me since 2020
Thats what I had, yeah. love it, but they die fast.
Those Bathurst chairs have been popular with guitarists because the arms fold all the way up. I know because it's why I bought one and I've seen them in the background of Marketplace listings.
Decent chairs but the pleather does die fast. I bought a Steelcase Leap and it has been great, but budget could be an issue there
I wouldn't mind something like that but with fabric. I hate pleather. Also why are so many of these chairs made for giants? I thought maybe the Typhoon Viper Fabric one for $100 more would be nice to try, but it's recommended for users nearly 20cm taller than I am.
My leap has fabric and a low back so it might be better suited to you
