I might be getting some extra money from my WFH job to allow me to buy office furniture. A used Aeron seems ideal but I do sometimes enjoy sitting crossed legged or one leg under the other. Definitely need something with a mesh back.

Worth a shot. ;)
I know you've gonna learn the hard way. Don't say you weren't warned!
When people recommend chairs, I need them to say their ages... I need to know how much your back is broken like mine because I slept wrong, before I'll consider things.
Doesn't look bad for a cheap chair, but agreed if you're in or near a city furniture liquidators are the only way to go if you're on a budget.
You made my night. Thank you 😆
OT: I've read a few chair recommendations from era but I might get this one. There was one like it at office Depot that I liked. Any chance for black Friday sales? Also, if it matters, I'm 6'1 150lbs
I need a good living room gaming chair. I have a big accent chair but the springs died a year ago and my back hurts from poor posture because of sitting in it. It's hard to find chairs/recliners/etc online though when I can't even test them myself in person due to the pandemic.
Nice. Please post your impressions if you don't mind!
My only concern with a chair like this is I wasn't gifted with a rear end. I guess I'll have to go try it in person before I bite the bullet
I'm not big, but I am tall, so this one looks pretty good compared to the one in the OP.
Also has recline.
I think it is a typo. The grey Hyken have Recline but the other two colors on the chart say it doesn't have Recline.
No. The headerest as mentioned abov sucks ass for tall people. I wouldn't bother with any chair from Staples if you're over 300 anyway, their build quality is not great in general.
I had one of these, was a solid chair but only last a couple years and the headrest was an issue and I'm only like 5'10.
Is there an equivalent for the UK, that isn't exorbitantly expensive like the Herman Miller levels of chairs?
I have this chair at work and home, and love it. It runs a little less than an Aeron though still quite expensive (£794 in UK store vs £875 for the Aeron). I was able to get it through my work for about $500 USD because it doubles for my home office and we get some discount, any chance you can do something like that?

Just got a Herman Miller Aeron for the better half. After spending all that, I'll probably have to settle on the Target chair for my own sitting needs, LOL
This actually looks really nice.
I just ordered the Staples chair but I'd love to hear your thoughts on this thing when you get it.
BTW Office Depot is having a sale on their WorkPro 1000 for $125. Haven't tried it out before but it also looks pretty nice?

Check offer up/craigslist. I found a used Herman Miller Aeron for 1/4 of the price of a new one.
If these go on sale in Canada I'll probably get one. My current chair is fucked, the weld cracked so every time I sit I know there's a chance I'll fall over and be on the floor
Not really sure where to find used but like new Herman Miller or steelcase in the Edmonton area. I've seen people claim to get them for $200 or less but where?!

Save for a Herman Miller and never buy another chair again. You can often find them slightly used from failed startups for cheap.
There's always people who pop in and say something along the lines of "Herman Miller or bust" and then there's the somewhat price aware who says to pick one up used for cheap.
I looked for fun and the cheapest used Aeron I could find in Sweden is $980. I might not be poor, but there is no way I am spending that on a chair.

Sitting on Marcus since 2010 :D. I mean, I don't know it better but I can't imagine a better chair.
I'm a tall person with a hyken and I came here to complain about the headrest. May I ask how you addressed the problem? A real solution would be amazing.
Also, toANYONE with a hyken, how the fuck do I find replacement bolts for it. I snapped two of the bolts that hold on the armrests and when I went to find a replacement at my hardware store that was same length, depth, threadcount, it didn't work at all.
I've got this IKEA Millberget but the bum padding is pretty much non-existant now and leaves me with a bit of an achey arse after I've finished work
Any UK recommendations for what to replace it with?
