Herman Miller Aeron review

The commenter shares that they've been using their Aeron for about 5 years in a home office setting and have mixed feelings. They find it comfortable most of the time, but they've noticed some sagging in the seat mesh that makes it less supportive than it used to be. They're disappointed that they're seeing wear at what they consider a relatively early point in the chair's life. However, they acknowledge that it's still functional and reasonably comfortable, just not as perfect as when it was new. They're uncertain whether they'd buy another one.

Pros

  • Comfortable most of the time
  • Still functional after 5 years

Cons

  • Seat mesh sagging after 5 years
  • Less supportive than when new
  • Disappointing wear rate
  • Value proposition questionable
