Okamura Contessa II review

A review comparing the Okamura Contessa (original version) to the Herman Miller Aeron, with user comments discussing both the original Contessa and Contessa II. The reviewer finds it very comfortable and more adjustable than the Aeron, though notes it may fit shorter users better. User feedback spans both models with mixed experiences on mesh comfort and excellent build quality.

Pros

  • Highly adjustable with many features
  • Excellent build quality and durability, lasting many years
  • Good lumbar support that fits well
  • Superior recline mechanism
  • Helpful for back pain relief

Cons

  • Mesh seat could be more comfortable
  • Mesh is rough on bare skin and causes fabric pilling
  • May fit shorter users better than taller ones
  • Armrests can be tricky to adjust
  • Headrest is expensive and hard to find
