One year with the Aeron Chair

1 year ago I wrote about my first two weeks with my new Herman Miller Aeron Remastered chair. So, how is it after a full year?

This chair was the best investment I made last year. My butt never gets tired of this chair.

I still use the tilt mechanism as I configured it a year ago. It’s perfect. I lean back a little, a little more, or not at all. In meetings, I like to lean back a lot, put my hands behind my head and just relax.

It’s a good thing I didn’t get the headrest, because you really don’t need it. When I sit upright, I don’t rest my head. And when I lean back, like I said, I like to put my hands behind my head and lean on them, and it’s really comfortable. It would probably be annoying if there was a headrest.

My back pain never came back! I remember I used to have this constant tension under my right shoulder and looking back it was really not good. But since then it’s just gone. Never had any problems again.

If your job involves sitting at a desk a lot, and sometimes your butt starts to get tired, or you have some tension in your back or shoulders, and you’re not short on money, I would highly recommend buying this chair if you’re not short on money. The price tag may seem high for a chair, but when you consider how expensive a good mattress and pillow is, and how many hours you’ll spend on it, it’s worth every penny. #notsponsored
