Herman Miller Aeron review
This user provides a strong warning based on direct experience. They received a text-only Aeron chair (without lumbar support) in the largest available size. Within just two months of daily use, they experienced severe lower back pain that persisted for a very long time. The pain was significant enough that they still remember it vividly and are commenting to warn others. They emphasize that this was with the 'jumbo' or largest size available, suggesting that even with proper sizing, the lack of lumbar support caused serious issues.
Cons
- Caused severe lower back pain within two months
- Pain persisted for extended period
- Lack of lumbar support was problematic even in largest size
