Which computer chair do you use? Needs to be poopsock viable

For some reason Amazon has multiple models when you go to the link and swipe through the “color” options. You want the Atlas, which is this one. $279. I got mine from Amazon because I get 5% off, easy returns, free shipping.

Bought the chair from Amazon and had it assembled in 20-30 minutes. I was shocked how heavy the seat portion was. Once together the chair feels solid. It's definitely a huge upgrade from my old chair and my wife likes it. My only gripe I have so far is the arm rest tend to move a little to easy. I wish there was a way to lock them in place but it's not a big issue.

How does this work? What chair do you have?

Not these exactly, but pretty close. General idea is recliner with end-tables on each side that are the same height as the chair arm. Monitor attached to each table on a swing arm.

Keyboard goes in lap and mouse/trackball on the little swivel table attached to the chair. Mine is almost flush with the chair arm instead of sticking up like the pic. Although I'd be ok mousing on the end-table if the chair didn't have the little pivot table. If I were doing heavy data entry, the lap-keyboard might not be great, but it's fine for like 99% of what I do.
I've had this setup for maybe 7 years and still like it. Imagining being stuck at a desk all day seems like torture now lol.

Bud, that looks and sounds incredibly awkward and uncomfortable. Do you just play cookie clicker all day?

If you think this looks more comfy than lounging in a recliner, well, ok.

Keyboard in your lap might take a little getting used to, but years of poopsocking eq from the couch trained me well. Other than that, I don't see the issue. Do you play console games at a desk too?

Keyboard in lap and mouse arm above at an awkward angle. Yes, it sounds uncomfortable.

Consoles games use a controller that can comfortably sit in your lap, designed precisely for couch play. Keyboards and mice are designed specifically to sit on a desk.

You can get a board and lay it over the arms of the recliner to act as the "desk" for your m/kb.

Any recommendations on a fat and tall man chair?

I've played games with my keyboard in my lap for my entire life. I hate using it on the desk so much that if it was the only option I probably wouldn't use it at all.
