Herman Miller Aeron review

The commenter warns about a significant issue with the Aeron - it doesn't have lumbar support that adjusts in and out, which they consider a major limitation. They explain that the chair only offers lumbar height adjustment, not depth. Additionally, they criticize the arm adjustments as being severely limited compared to other high-end chairs. They strongly recommend looking at the Steelcase Leap or Gesture models instead, as both offer superior adjustability and lumbar support features that make them better ergonomic choices than the Aeron.

Cons

  • No in/out lumbar adjustment
  • Limited arm adjustments
  • Only height-adjustable lumbar
