Herman Miller Aeron review

The commenter shares their experience dealing with two different problems: chair firmness and cushion placement. They explain that a cushion being too thick or poorly positioned can be problematic. A thin dense cushion with rounded/tapered edges works best to avoid pushing the hips forward or changing the lumbar contact in ways the chair wasn't designed for. If the cushion is too thick, it can defeat the function of the chair by altering the intended ergonomic positioning. They emphasize that cushion thickness and shape matter significantly for maintaining proper support.
