I've had my $139 IKEA chair for 7 years and never had a problem with it. http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/00074840 http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/

  I second this choice of chair. I picked mine up for half price in the "as is" section. To me, it's more comfortable than just about any office chair I've had, and I've had the Aeron chair. (The Aeron wins out, but it's not by $300 worth!)

    I've had an Aeron (at work) before too and I prefer the IKEA one, mostly because I don't like chairs with arms. I've honestly never gotten the whole cult-of-the-aeron.

  Interesting alternative to the aeron. I have had similar chairs from staples etc... and all of them the seat cushion breaks down to the point where I am sitting on the particle board under the padding after a year or so. Does this IKEA chair do that? I am not a heavy guy by any stretch of the imagination and these chairs all break down on me so the aeron is something that I am considering largely because of the cushion problem. (also the mesh keeps cool during a long session and the posture elements are nice too)

  On the other hand, what necessary features does this chair have that the most basic ones don't? I was going to buy me the most basic office chair (height and tilt-adjustable, as I guess just any of them) because I don't wish to pay price of something like Aeron and I don't understand what the above-basic chairs have to offer me.
