Making of the Aeron

As I put together my workstation, I wanted to find a nicer chair. I'm considering the Aeron (I had the pleasure of using one in a prior life). I'm also considering the Freedom Chair as well (used of course). Anyone have a recommendation for the perfect chair? Watch the video about the Aeron.



The Aeron chair is a product of Herman Miller designed in 1994 by Don Chadwick and Bill Stumpf. It is an ergonomic chair that is regarded by many users as inherently very comfortable due to its wide range of fit (available in three sizes) and adjustability. Its novel design has gained it a spot in the Museum of Modern Art's permanent collection.[1] The chair's exclusivity became a symbol of the dot-com bubble in the late 1990s. -Wikepedia

Oh cool. Yeh the Aeron is pretty expensive—I'm hoping to check out some used ones. I found a bunch on craigslist for under $400.

I've always wanted to own one. :)

Thanks for the link, I'll check it out. :)
