Did you get the fully articulated version? There is a Aeron version that looks the same but lacks all the adjustments.

 

I have had one for years; I have serious back issues, 2 collapsed discs in my lower lumbar, it’s the only chair I can sit in for an extended time. When the seat broke I called HM to get a replacement part and they sent me a new chair for free. Seriously don’t know how I’d work without it.

 

Everyone’s different but I’m surprised you couldn’t find a comfortable position unless you had the ‘dumbed down’ version.

I thought the seat was uncomfortable and the arms had no good working positions. Maybe it was a size thing, but I was unimpressed

really? i love my aeron’s

 

are you short or tall perhaps?

 

there are three sizes of aeron - on the top back under the lip feel and there are dimples - one for small, two for medium and three for large chair size

 

i’m 5’ 10 and the medium fits me great, just get it adjusted right and you can also flip the lumbar over to have two levels of lower back support (pull it up and off the chair back and flip it over - you can see there are two “depths” then slide it back on)

 

only people i’ve heard of that really did not like the aeron’s in our previous office of 100+ were people either too big or too small for the medium sized chairs we had

Looking for good lower back support. Tried the Aeron chair for a while but hated it. Anything people swear by in this industry of sitting? Have a reasonable budget for something well-built.
