Autonomous ErgoChair Pro review
This commenter shares their experience with the Autonomous ErgoChair Pro, which they bought as a budget alternative to the Aeron. They explain that the chair was decent for about a year but then started having issues with the hydraulic cylinder failing and the armrests becoming loose. The user notes that customer service was difficult to work with and replacement parts took weeks to arrive. They contrast this with Herman Miller's reputation for standing behind their product with a 12-year warranty. The commenter says that while they saved money upfront, they're now planning to invest in an Aeron or Leap because they've learned that cheap chairs are actually more expensive in the long run. They warn against being penny-wise and pound-foolish with office chairs.
