Hi all
I know you can find office chairs from IKEA, but they seem a little on the cheap and nasty side. Does anywhere else sell office chairs? Maybe Courts? Harvey Norman don't seem to.

There are quite a few smaller shops that have a wide range of office chairs, A couple off the top of my head are
Marine Parade opposite the NTUC has a large selection.
A Funan there's a shop upstairs that sells a large range of desks and office chairs. Can't remember the name of it off hand but we recently bought a desk from there, good price and delivered free within 4/5 days.

There is an office furnishings place in the Apollo Building (where the Small Claims Tribunal is located) beside MOM. The have a decent selection as does the unit here in my complex (out in the Clementi/JurongEast/BukitBatok triangle) at Enterprise Hub at 48 Toh Guan Road East. (very near to IMM to give you a general area) It's on the ground floor facing the road.

There are many outlets selling such stuff. But have you been to the industrial estate ones. Plenty of office chairs for you to choose from and they are cheap too.
Cheers...

Try V.Hive at
http://www.vhive.com.sg . Outlets all over Singapore (incl. IMM, Funan) and a huge selection of office chairs from $50 to $1000, mostly unbranded but decent quality (Korean-made). Sitting in one of their chairs right now and loving it
