It's not that it's comfortable when you sit down that makes it great. It's that it doesn't become uncomfortable after 8 hours.

[@netnoob77]

How true.. I sit on one at work and I never thought much of it until I realized that I am never uncomfortable despite being on it for long hours on end. Looked it up only to find out that it's an iconic chair.

[@chasenthehype]

To be fair - if you get/purchase the right size (in my case a C) it’s comfortable right out the gate and for long hours. I used a B for years in office - and found it to be good for long hours - but not amazing. Getting the larger size with the leather arm pads is/was a game changer

I've literally sat in an Aeron for 9+ hours straight when we used to have PC game LAN parties at a friend's office on Saturdays back in the day. We would set up in a conference room and I'd grab one of the chairs from a desk. There was no cutting off of circulation and I hardly ever shifted in it. It was like I didn't even notice I was sitting in a chair. It was like sitting on a cloud. Too bad they cost so much.

[@darinking1343]

We moved into a new building in Oct 2018. The new Aeron was 1 of two chairs all employees voted on. I liked the Lumbar support and voted for the Aeron. It won. Now after about 17 months, if you look at any chair in the building, other than adjustments up and down, etc., they still look brand new. Many are in our chairs 8+, 10+ and sometimes 12+ hours a day. I was so impressed, I ordered one for my home office about 10 days ago. It arrives soon and I'm so excited. I spend around 4-6 hours in my old, crappy office chair on a daily basis and I know this will be a huge upgrade. It was expensive, but it will probably be the last office chair I ever buy. And that alone justifies it..

We have these in our offices. While comfortable, these aren't meant to be sit upon cross legged or with one leg tucked under the other as the plastic rim cuts you shin. They are perfect for sitting but as a programmer, I like sitting on chairs with a flat base as it supports many positions to sit on. The office also has the Steelcase Leap V2 chairs and they are my personal favorite. Both are great chairs but would recommend the Leap or even the Herman Miller Embody if you can afford it over this.

Sat on a simple wood stool for several years in my office. Next job had these Aeron chairs - basically I started getting back pain within a few weeks.

@@irkypots Herman Miller is in the same situation as Wacom (graphic tablets), their competitors claim to be up to the same specs for half the price but it's simply not true and they get away with those claims because people will just buy the cheaper product and swear in its name without even trying the "premium" one, and if they ever try the premium one they'll still pretend it's the same to justify their purchase. The Aeron is not the most comfortable chair in the world, its real purpose is so you sit right and your back doesn't get tired after long work sessions, if you care about that then go for it, as no other chairs from "the competition" come close to it in that regard.

[@aeonjoey3d]

something they didn't touch and that most people never know about is that there are 3 distinct sizes of the Aeron, A, B, and C (Small, Medium, Large) you can tell which one you have by feeling under the top of the back where the handle-like protrusion flares out from the back, 1 dot=A, 2=B, 3=C. Someone 6' 200lbs sitting in an A size Aeron will hate their life with a passion and probably write off the chairs as garbage without ever realizing they were sitting in a chair designed for a 4' 80lb person. It's probably the most important aspect of the Aeron. Herman Miller has a chart with how to pick which size based on Height and Weight. What's a shame is that most companies just see them as one-size-fits-all when they are anyting but.

[@krob_]

refurbished/used aerons go for a fraction of the price. 300-500 bucks. shows that you really are paying for the warranty, but i think HMs target group are offices, not the usual joe. if you have an office with 30 or 40 aerons the warranty will come in handy sometimes. spending a grand on a chair is justifiable tho, it lasts for more than a decade and its one of the best chairs for long sessions. dont know why people buy the new iphone every year for a grand but arent willing to spend $100/yr for that kind of chair. spend your cash were you spend your time.

[@nerdstrangler4804]

Not a chance, their fat profit margins are a drop in the bucket for their corporate clients. If a chair can help companies squeeze extra productivity out of their employees by enabling them to work longer hours with fewer breaks, they will gladly pay 1k+. And since most consumers generally want the cheapest chair possible, even if they did drastically reduce prices it probably would do little to boost sales.

It's unfortunate that after all the hype and the money they ask for it, it has such a half baked lumbar support, and the entire design (functionality, not style) leaves a lot to be desired. Especially when we talk about a chair that is over $900-1500. Wow, it reclines, amazing. How about an adjustable MID BACK support that makes sense and works on adults as well. (designers, architects who needs to sit up straight, working at a desk) Maybe HM should spend more on REAL EXPERTS such as docs/chiros vs "designers" and marketing. Make a decent chair with ADJUSTABLE lumbar and BACK SUPPORT that follows the spine's natural curves, price it right, and it would sell like hotcakes.

beautiful chairs, freaking boring jobs

[@HiatusMobs]

It's a job! Dafuq?

[@dexhax]

we have these ate work they are extremely uncomfortable

[@dexhax]

+willysmitty yes sadly, after more then maybe 2 hours, that are uncomfortable. they are very stiff. and the arms sit far to low to be used when typing. the arms also are spaced too far and turn out. so the chair doesn't brace you. I'm 5'9 180 pounds so fairly normal.

[@MACHINEGABO]

The Aeron chair is very comfortable, excellent products with design and functionality've tried several, very good video well explained thanks

[@xblur17]

The new Aeron (Remastered) not only has fully adjustable arms (depth, height, side angle), but they also have improved seat comfort and better back support. It's an amazing chair, I couldn't recommend it enough.

[@ocelot667]

it could be that you have the wrong chair for you. check in the top of the chair you should feel 1,2 or 3 bumps. where 3 depicts the largest chair and 1 the smallest.

[@paulj9821]

@@xblur17 Utter nonsense. It's still the same fundamental design from 1994. Calling it remastered is a joke just because they made slight modification to the arm rest. Go look at the Steelcase Gesture if you want to see real innovation, especially for the arm rests.

Doesn't justify the $2000 price point!

im just going to answer the title right off: get Alexander out of the room first

[@Toniiy]

Horrible uncomfortable chair for you back, that’s why they’ve changed the Lumbar support design 3 times lol. Nobody can tell me it’s that good because I had one Remastered full loaded and returned it. Don’t believe me try one. If you give it to me free I still won’t use it. HM is hyped bullshit

[@philcliffe6909]

Disappointed with the product. Disgusted with customer service.

$1,000 for a CHAIR. WTF???

[@PaulieHo]

You spend a third of your waking hours or more in it, it's totally worth it. Same reason you splurge a little on a mattress.

[@MrYazbo]

Worth every penny I've had mine since 2004 and still going strong and i work from home a lot so its in use 8 hours a day 5 or 6 days a week and it still looks like new. The only maintenance I've had to do is tighten one arm in that 15 years. You can't do that with a cheap £100 chair from office world.

[@paulj9821]

@@MrYazbo Ok back in 2004 it was worth that money. Not today buddy. Say this with me, Competition

[@MrYazbo]

@@paulj9821 If you can name me some cheaper chairs which can survive 16 years of 8 hours a day and upwards use then I'm all ears. The cheaper ones i've had before the Aeron usually lasted a year or two at best. Plus I paid £300 for mine from Ebay in a water damaged box and it was like new. I'd always suggest people buy them second hand and save on the retail price.

[@Phlegethon]

it's a bit over rated

[@mka4pol]

The most overpriced, overrated office chair i've ever had; even the two primary designers admitted it's horseshit.

[@shyadeny]

What's your source for that? I'd actually love to see/read it
