Aeron

I’ve used both the Aeron and the Herman Miller x Logitech embody for a few years and the embody clears it. Most comfortable chair and it’s not close.

I had a Herman Miller Aeron for awhile and had a hunch it was making things worse. Leg pain, back pain. Finally said screw it and tried a Steelcase Gesture and oh my god it was like night and day. Maybe try to switch it up. You have the cash and there is no better investment than in things between y

Steelcase Leap. The Gesture, which is very similar (but not as nice-looking) is also great. Here is The Wirecutter's review. These are much better than the Aeron, in my opinion.

Everyone is different. Personally, I do not find the Aeron comfortable. I use a Logitech x Herman Miller Embody. Previously I was using an Autonomous ErgoChair v1.

Tbh as someone who bought an Aeron a few years ago... it's overhyped. Built like a tank, sure, but the rigid mesh frame kills me if I try to sit cross-legged. I'm a bigger guy and actually cross-shopped the Colamy Atlas and the LiberNovo Maxis recently. Ended up leaning toward the Maxis because the
