I replaced the arms on my Aeron after 6 years of wear. It was a relatively quick process. I get it though. We are in nursery, sick puppy, concerts, and rotating visitor mode. Just fitting some vacuum time in is stressful.

Save the money, get a decent chair and then go get weekly massages and write them off:)

Sometimes you can find a Herman Miller for the low low on fb mkt or Craigslist. I bought my Aeron for $50 this was

I have alerts set on both! Haven’t found anything good yet unfortunately, I’m pretty sure some people in my city just stalk those websites as their full time job so maybe I’m just always late to the post

Ooh that looks like something that would work for me!! Unfortunately it doesn’t seem like they’re available here in the US 😭 but thank you for the rec!

If possible, you should go and try sitting in some at the store before making an online purchase.

I use a Steelcase Personality Plus(~$350). Not sure if that’s available where you are.

I've been away for a bit, busy freelancing, and sitting at my desk for hours has really killed my lower half 😭 Can anyone recommend a comfortable office chair (w/good back support & for people w/long legs) that's under $200? Someday I'll get an herman miller (but not today).

Also just want to add that I have a standing desk but standing hurts after a while and I've also used a stepper but that interferes with my designing abilities especially when being "pixel perfect" matters. I've accepted my fate.

I found my Aeron for $100. And if what you find needs any repairs, remember you can buy replacement parts for reasonable prices.

Hmm you’re definitely on to something 🤔

That is true, haven’t really thought of that! I barely have any free time tho so I’d have to account for how motivated I am to actually replace something lol
