Personally, I prefer not to have armrests because I feel they just get in my way. I recently took the armrests off my chair and it feels way better now. I think I would like it if I had really low armrests, but for now I just prefer to not have them at all.
How does Giant Bomb feel about this important issue?
Do you prefer a desk chair with armrests or no armrests?
It just depends. Most of the time they're fine, quite comfortable. But when I really get into something, I tend to not pay attention to whether there's armrests or not, so I put the "I don't really care" option even though that's not quite true.
I love and have armrests (my chair is the most comfortable chair ever ever ever). However, I often like to play guitar while sitting at my computer, so there is definitely a compromise being made here. What I could do is remove the right armrest and leave the left one intact, but I'm not sure that it would be comfortable anymore after that.
I like armrests, unless it's the same chair I use to play Rock Band drums. In that case arms just won't do.
I'm gonna go with armrests but they need to be adjustable or else they may get in the way depending on what I am doing.
I also think they get in the way so I prefer chairs with no armrests. I'm a weird, awkward and restless sitter and I don't want anything to limit my positioning. If I want to rest my arms I do it on the table or put a pillow in my lap.
