Herman Miller Aeron review
The user reports developing significant discomfort and pain after extended use of their Aeron, despite initially finding it comfortable. They experienced issues with the seat edge cutting into the back of their thighs, which became increasingly problematic over time. The mesh material, while breathable, didn't provide adequate cushioning for all-day sitting in their experience. They also found the lumbar support to be too aggressive and not adjustable enough for their specific body shape. After several months of trying to make it work, they ultimately decided to sell the chair and look for alternatives, feeling disappointed given the high price point and reputation of the Aeron.
Pros
- Initially comfortable

Cons
- Seat edge cuts into thighs
