Herman Miller Aeron review

This user explains that they bought their Aeron used for around $400 and feel that at that price point, it's been worth it. However, they explicitly state that they would never pay full retail price for one. They've had the chair for a few years and it's comfortable, but they don't believe the quality and durability justify the premium new price. The commenter suggests that the Aeron is a good chair when purchased secondhand at a significant discount, but the value proposition at full price is questionable.

Pros

  • Good value when purchased used
  • Comfortable
  • Worth it at discounted prices

Cons

  • Not worth full retail price
  • Quality doesn't justify premium pricing
  • Better value used than new
