I have drunk the cool-aid about expensive chairs and cheap tables. For years I wanted to buy an Aeron for my home office but I didn't want to do it until I test one (I live in a small town, so no opportunity). Finally this year I tested an Aeron during a business trip, for 10 days. Maybe it's my own body, but it wasn't as comfortable as I thought it was going to be, I was very disappointed.
The best chair I've been on was one during an EA interview (Montreal studio). I still wonder which kind of chair it was.
- mulletbum 10y agoI might be writing this a lot for this thread, but the embody chair is by far the best office chair I have ever sat in: http://www.hermanmiller.com/products/seating/performance-work-chairs/embody-chairs.html http://www.hermanmiller.com/products/seating/performance-wor...
- rublev 10y agoThis activates my 'any one of these 10 million screws might pop and fuck me' phobia to the max. Is there something that provides similar comfort but without the 'sentient' aesthetic, something simpler in design?
- mulletbum 10y agoIt comes with a 5 year warranty. You can go with a more industrial look, such as the Steelcase Gesture, but in reality most of what is done is just covered to look like there is less screws and such. The difference is that Embody was made to deal with pressure points, but there are not as many screws as you might think.
- mickronome 10y agoThe Aeron doesn't fit everyone. I'm thin as a rail, and for me the front lip cuts into the back of my thighs quite uncomfortably. But it fits a collegue of mine absolutely perfectly. I think it might be a bit sensitive to weight ( or weight over area ) as well as length, which is why they come in three different sizes. But for some complexions none of the sizes might fit.
