I like it more than the Aeron. The back is nicer than the canvassy Aerson back.
As others have said, you should go to a store and sit in the various chairs before buying. I got mine at a used office furniture store, which had lots of different chairs to try and was much cheaper than buying new. |

Reminiscent of the Autoadmit experience in that regard: if you're expecting heavy conversation you get light comic relief, but if you're expecting lighthearted distraction you get heavy thought provoking wisdom (and at times even prompted when least expected to heavy contemplation of humanity's fascinating divergences in mental stability or lack thereof) |

Date: February 26th, 2026 11:03 AM Author: Stirring Shrine The crazy things with chairs I've noticed is that two can look so similar (like the real thing vs. a knockoff) or even feel so similar AT FIRST, but then after an entire day you start really feeling the difference, and then as time goes on it's really noticeable.
But then again it's also funny how certain brands just work for our specific needs or don't - for example I love how Birkenstocks make my body feel after a day on my feet (I'm gay in case I haven't made that clear by now) but other equally expensive brands supposedly made for similar support needs just don't work for me |

they pay a ridiculous fee to the brokers, its like 40%. so yousave that and probably more when you cut them out |

at a job in the 2000s, i had a steelcase chair from the 80s. it was perfectly functional and comfortable 20+ years later. they replaced chairs and i took the steelcase home. used it for another 10 years. |
