I’ve sat in Herman Miller Aeron chairs at work for years and you might assume it’s less comfortable than cushion if you haven’t sat in one before, but it’s really not. Mesh (or equivalent) backrest, AND mesh seat.Here are the two considerations I decided to make mandatory for my chair: Either way, pick which considerations from the below matter to you first. You will make sacrifices on quality to get it, especially in terms of the mesh material, but it’s a good chair. If you need a budget option which still conforms to the Buy For Life protocol as much as possible, body type aside I highly recommend the WorkPro Quantum 9000. High end office chairs, even refurbished or used, can be expensive as hell. If you’re at the point where you are considering buying an Aeron chair, most if not all chairs are in your range. With your body in mind, decide what features you want in a chair first, and your decision will get made for you. Bear in mind they do sell products as well, but I found at least the chair reviews to be genuine. Super honest, extremely helpful and explanatory videos. The sites that I felt gave some of the more useful reviews that took body type into account were: If you’re notably taller, shorter, or heavier than the average person, or have any health issues that affect you while sitting (back problems) keep an eye out for those in the reviews.

We all qualified to review office chairs by having a butt to sit with, so make sure you are looking at reviews that mention what body types are good / not good for the chair.

That’s why amateur and professional reviews are both fine. Everyone’s body is different, and different chairs will be good or bad for different people.

Here’s what ended up being the two most significant considerations in the chair-buying process.

I’ll update back years from now if it’s any different of an experience over more time. The human body was not designed to sit in a chair for an extensive amount of time daily (which many people do, 8+ hours every day), so if you’re buying a chair you want to keep long term, ergonomics are more important than anything else besides how long it will last.Īs one does, I consulted Reddit to make a choice between office chairs recently - and despite the massive amount of times this topic has been brought up I didn’t find the kind of advice I needed - there is a huge amount of complexity that goes into why a chair is good for you vs not and mostly, it’s just stated preference on a small number of criteria.Īt the end of my search, I ended up with a model of the Herman Miller Mirra 2 (details on its features at the end of this diatribe), and I think it’s fantastic so far. Moreover, this is not an equipment investment, it’s a health investment. If you do the math on how often you might need to replace a chair or its parts, you’ll actually save money this way in the long term, but of course, it will require a more substantial investment up front. I was looking for a chair that I can sit in, daily, for ten years. To be entirely clear, there are plenty of more affordable well built chairs out there than the ones by Herman Miller and Steelcase that I’m considering, but the point of Buy For Life is to make a substantial investment in a quality product that will last you for the longest possible time in its category - and the warranty of most chairmakers alone eliminates practically all of them from this category. This is in response to a question posted today in the Buy For Life reddit, but it’s just useful info to have, and I’ve gone through the agony of this decision so that you don’t have to.
