fwiw I don't mind the suits. The chair looks good too.

I agree the suits look pretty ridiculous (even if they're not yours), though, chair doesn't look horrible, other than the top headpiece thing which looks so out of place.

isnt the spade lop-sided?

I had 2 of the Herman Millers. Now say with a high pitched whiny voice a la Damon Wayans... Hated it. Found it very uncomfortable. I have since gotten chairs from Relax the Back store and got it in fabric. Fully adjustable, you don't stick to it and my dog can't f it up. Extremely comfortable. Definitely need to sit in it and judge. Need to protect the back, man.

I just bought the ergo-human because I'm suffering from sciatica. It is [censored] great. I like it better than the aeron's I've sat in and for the price, I think it's probably one of the best deals on the market.

It's really well made, easy to put together and super adjustable. It took me a little while to get used to but I love it now. I ordered from the human solution btw and was really happy with the service.

also anybody that thinks spending $500-1000 on a chair is silly should really reconsider. Developing sciatica or some other lower back issues can really [censored] up a lot of day to day things, like not being able to sit in a movie theater for two hours because there is pain shooting down your leg and your toes are starting to go numb [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Before you invest in a 2nd 24" monitor, do yourself a huge favour and get a decent chair.

how do you know if your chair isn't decent? when im at home i sit in my chair all the time, but i don't feel uncomfortable or anything.

BDub, how goes it? I might be coming out to your neck of the woods again in the next few months! Thanks for the info on the chair, I'll take a look at their website as well. Again, as you said, I really want to be able to sit in the chair before I buy it, obviously, for the exact reason you mentioned...Herman Miller's are loved by many, but there are also quite a few that LOATHE them, therefore, testing is paramount to me buying a $500+ chair.


Neko, thanks for the info...that's the kind of feedback I was looking for. I'm definitely leaning that direction.

And Vyse...it's all about comfort bro. If you don't feel fatigued/sore/etc. after putting in a long session, then I'm thinking your chair is fine. YMMV.

wow, this chair looks very comfortable. I have a Herman Miller - Aeron Chair and actually like it alot. The materials they use are very well made and I would highly recommend it to anyone that sits in their computer chair more than 4 hours a day. I too was hesitant on spending $700 on a chair, but it is an investment well worth making. The best way I can describe it is getting that 2nd or 3rd monitor...you wonder how you lived without it.

The reason I would strongly consider the chair you mentioned, is because of the head-rest. The fact that I don't have to special order it from online is also a plus. I may just goto office depot or a local store and try it out. Thanks for the post and sharing.

To others that have the Aeron Chair, how does this other chair compare? I love my Aeron and never thought I would change, but I am willing to check out this new chair.
