Our Verdict

The Boulies EP200 is a solid choice for anyone seeking a comfortable but well-built chair that will suit whether you’re working or gaming. Its ergonomic design cradles the back and encourages good posture, which is a must for anyone spending a lot of time in front of their screen. The chair can be adjusted in several ways including lumbar support, arm rests, height, angled headrest and reclining back and seat positions so however you like to sit, you can find the perfect set up. Whilst this chair may not have some of the premium features of top-rated office chairs, it does deliver where it counts the most and that’s comfort, adjustability and affordability. If you buy the Boulies EP200 then you’ll be doing your back and posture a huge favour.

For

  • Looks stylish
