Step 1
Sit down on a few hydraulic office chairs. Although you can purchase a hydraulic office chair with an online retailer, to really know the quality of what you're getting for your money, you have to try the chair on for size. Note the price, manufacturer and model number of the hydraulic chairs that are comfortable. This information will come in handy when you shop and compare elsewhere.

Step 3
Visit a shopping website such as nextag.com. You'll find tons of suppliers of hydraulic office chairs with consumer ratings to go along with them.

Step 4
Compare prices for the manufacturer and possibly the model you found in the store. Although some suppliers will request a new model number for the specific brand of office chair they carry, if you stick with the same manufacturer, you should be getting similar quality and comfort.

Look for a three to five year limited warranty. If you're looking for your hydraulic office chair to last a few years, buying one with a longer warranty helps ensure you'll get quality to last.
