Herman Miller Aeron review

The user initially found the Aeron uncomfortable for the first two weeks, which they describe as a break-in period for both the chair and their body adjusting to proper posture. They specifically had a problem with the seat's front edge digging into their legs, but this resolved itself once they removed the plastic wrapping from underneath the seat that they hadn't realized was there. After these adjustments, they find the chair comfortable for extended periods.

Pros

  • Comfortable after break-in period
  • Good for extended sitting

Cons

  • Uncomfortable first two weeks
  • Front edge can dig into legs if plastic not removed
