Home office chairs

[vickster]

I've had a few over the years and the best by far is my current one - a Herman Miller Aeron. It's supremely comfortable and I can happily spend more than a full working day sat in it. It would be a leap of faith but £500 should get you a good refurbed example.

Thanks, I ordered the Mirra based on @Milkfloat saying he wouldn’t pay extra for the Aeron

Anything in your local ikea perhaps?

I'm sure you'll not be disappointed with it.

As above, I wanted something better than Ikea and there’s no way I’d go there at the moment! Not being flat
Pack also an advantage!

Am on a Herman Miller Aeron, bought s/h refurb. The original ergonomic chair launched in IIRC 1994 and still going strong for a reason, but yours will be good, too, I'm sure, and probably a little less bulky, which is clearly a consideration.

There are some showrooms in London, I could cycle up. Just need to find out if they're open

Just to add...showrooms not yet open..

@Milkfloat I'm going for the refurbed Herman Miller Mirra. Best thing is...it comes fully assembled!

I am sure you will be happy with it, I love mine.

I treated myself to a Kulik one a couple of years ago. Gets the office temp’s approval.

Thanks, I realise that you posted Mirra 2 originally, the one I’ve ordered isn’t the 2, which is out of stock. Sure it’ll be right though.
I've ordered one of these to go with

The chair has already been dispatched with a next day service...can’t complain at that!

Good choice. And if you don't get on with it, you should be able to sell it easily.

As general advice, I'd say don't buy Staples or Ikea. Quality is just not good enough. Go for second hand.

A decent office chair will have so many adjustable features that it can be made comfortable for anyone. I am currently sitting on a Steelcase chair, probably originally close to £800 but IIRC, cost about £150. Would highly recommend that brand as they are well thought of.

I ordered one for home which work paid for a couple of weeks back from this company

Its comfortable, and I can last 9+ hours a day in it without getting sore.

All a bit late for me, but good for others
