Herman Miller Aeron review

The commenter used the Aeron extensively at their old workplace and found it to be an excellent chair for all-day sitting. They never experienced any discomfort or issues during long work sessions. The breathability of the mesh was particularly appreciated in a warm office environment. However, they note that the chair is extremely expensive for home use, and they couldn't justify the cost for their home office. They ended up buying a much cheaper alternative for home that works adequately but doesn't compare to the Aeron in terms of comfort and build quality. They would buy an Aeron for home if money wasn't an issue.

Pros

  • excellent for all-day sitting
  • very breathable mesh
  • no discomfort during long sessions
  • great build quality

Cons

  • extremely expensive for home purchase
