Really nicely done video - I definitely learned some things :) One additional way (and actually the first way I learned) to identify Mirra 1 vs Mirra 2 is the shape of the rear "support structure" (for lack of better term). With the Mirra 1, it looks like a person holding up their arms to make the letter "Y" (like when doing the YMCA dance). Whereas with the Mirra 2, the top closes to completely a loop, so it looks like a person making the letter "O" with the arms above their head.

When I'm taking photos, the 24-105 lives on my camera because it's just so much more useful to use with my young ones. I REALLY want to get a 24mm gm lens for talking head, but used that money to purchase a second camera! I saw Vilitrox is about to release a 24mm 1.8, so I will probably pick that up instead!

Currentely have the Logitech Embody. While i think it can be a great chair for some people it just hurts my lumbar region a lot. It just presses too hard there. Also i get weird cracks and noises all over the chair. Gonna return it and switch to the Aeron. One question i have. You mentioned that the Aeron is only made for people who sit in an ergonomic way all day. Does this inculde putting your feet up on a foot rest or small table? I never sit crosslegged or weird in any other way but i sometimes like to put my feet up while watching a movies and stuff.

@@Ahnestly Yeah, my chair is Graphite/Polished Aluminum. The Atlas Graphite headrest would look fine, I just think having a polished aluminum version of it would be just that added touch to look as OEM as possible. You’re probably right though, the polished aluminum frame might be to niche for mass production of a headrest in that colorway. Without saying anything that may get you in trouble, based on what you know is in the pipeline would you advise holding off until those products come to light or is it worth just getting the Suspension headrest now?

I need chairs for Ergonomics rebels. I've been watching all your chair videos... I was waiting until Black Friday Sales or Cyber Monday but the only chair I keep running into is the Lilly pad looking chair. I don't want to pay almost $400. So question, what about buying one of those big/tall or XL chairs... am I on the right track? Until then, I'll keep looking but I desperately need a chair. I started working at home and find myself standing (Definitely agree with switching it up but) with a standard desk. Haaaaa. Hot mess express. Help!

If you need a a ergonomic rebel chair, I recommend one of the following: Secret Lab Titan Evo 2022 regular size (unless you're 5'11 or taller, in which case I recommend you get an XL) or a Herman Miller Embody if you're looking for a great balance between ergonomics rebel and proper seating!

I have an Aeron chair (older) classic. It has everything except the tab style arm adjusters. The seat needs to be replaced (my kitties thought it was a good stretch). My question is does it make sense to replace the seat rather than buy new or used?

@@Ahnestly Just google it. For example, www.dwr.com/store?lang=en_US&StoreId=24 explains it as "overstocked, returned and scratch-and-dent furniture offered at substantial savings." I know of their outlets in Brooklyn, Penn, FL, and CA. I bought mine in FL. My Embody shows no signs of wear, so I assume it is either overstocked or returned.

For the lumbar support, do you have any suggestions in terms of height? I don't have the PostureFit, just the lumbar pad.

This is totally personal preference. I have lower back soreness but mid back pain. I thought if I put lumbar at mid back, it would fix it, but turns out it made it muchhhh worse. This is why I chose the posture fit, bc I had to leave the lumbar at the lower position regardless

I used the Aeron at an old job and I hated it because I sat with my legs crossed like an idiot. Don’t do this. It’ll wear down your knees. I got an injury when running and falling on my knee and it would’ve been fine had it not been for me sitting like this for a year straight which literally tore my cartilage. Sitting straight is only uncomfortable because you’ve gotten your body used to sitting incorrectly. It’s like sleeping on your stomach. Not good for you, and gives you back problems. Trust me in the long run, you won’t regret it.
