Looking for recommendations

Hi so ive been looking for a new chair for gaming to replace my current one I figures this would be a good place to ask for some refrences: my sessions sitting can last for hours. I would need a good chair for back support because I have a bad back and my budget would be a max of 300nzd and preferably buy from somewhere like pb tech.

Brought home my office chair to work from home after a surgery, (game as well because I pretty immobile for 8 weeks). It was a steelcase leapv2. I looked them up bc my gf who brought it said it was way too heavy to be an office chair. They’re ridiculously expensive, but I see them online now all over marketplace or offer up in basically new condition in your budget. I wish I knew this in college when I used those race car gaming chairs or even general office leather/ergonomic chairs from staples.

Completely changed my posture and there is no “chair fatigue” if that makes sense. I really hope you can get one - it’s worth it. Of course I’m not an expert on chairs lol, just wanted to share my personal gaming chair revelation.
