i concur with your disdain
- Good to know I'm not alone. Seems everyone has a big chub for it, me thinks it's more about image than anything.2cents
- It won industrial design awards... maybe you just don't like the people that sit in them. Guy.Transit_Broadcast
- IT always seems like whenever I sit in a chair and think "good god, why is this a chair?" it won an award.ninjasavant

When I was contracting at Medtronic's headquarters, everyone, and I mean everyone, had one of those. I don't think it was the biggie, but it still felt like a nice chair to sit in for hours. Then months later I saw the price....

Bullshit & overpriced. I liked sitting in one at the office for a bit until I experience an Eames Management rip-off from Target Online that was 1/8 the price and 5x more comfortable.
- Sean... you got to stop smoking that pipe.
Transit_Broadcast - +1. I've got one and it's super comfortable and looks miles better than an aeron.jamble

I love em, wouldn't sit in anything else. Just bought a new one a week ago (true black w/ stainless steel and leather exec version), old one lasted 9 years of ass stench punishment. I can sit in it all day and night, and have, many times. Well worth the money.

i seem to be always unsatisfied with my chair situation. can't find designed right for my body.
or perhaps sitting at a desk 9-5+ isn't what the human body was designed for.

it may look silly.. but I this is the chair i just got for retouching.. Since I am hunched over my wacom all day, the aeron's don't cut it..
- mmmmm ab stoollvl_13
- That's interesting. I love my aeron, and am a fulltime retoucher also, so I'd like to try this out.dopepope
- no wheels?!horton
- casters are a few bucks extra.. but mine has them..nicnichols

- not as sleek as the herman miller i posted above...but it's like 1/8th the price.lvl_13
- was just looking at these online at Costco.. dirt cheap.. are you recommending?horton
- nah, i don't have one. but i may get one at this price! ridiculous!
you buy it first? hahalvl_13 - i need a chair with removable arms.. my chair now uses a similar design with support provided by arms.horton
- I've been thinking of getting one of these too. I wish the tilt and height adjuster wasn't so awful.JackRyan
- i have 8 of these. they look fantastic in person. i got them in black from target.com. comfy and smoothovsm
- i also have the real HM chair right next to them, and visually, these look cooler. they aren't as stiff eitherovsm
- are you f-ing retarded? You're saying that this monstasity of a rip-off is more refined than the Eames Mngt chair?
Pole smoker.The_CCG - oops. Monstrosity.The_CCG
- its a monstrous caricature...well that black adjuster thing just makes it so laughable its not funny...ribit

I'm sitting on a dining room chair with a leg hanging off because I'm too lazy to pick up my office chair from storage. My back hates me. In fact, I hate me.

The chair is actually pretty comfortable. I had it for a while at my desk before the studio owner/my boss stole it from me.
My advice is to spring the extra $200 to get the movable arms.
I think the chair is overpriced, but at least it's not a piece of shit.
