Nine Things I Love About the Herman Miller Aeron Chair

Nine Things I Love About the Herman Miller Aeron Chair

Ryan Snyder |

Introduction

Hey everyone, Dave here with Crandall Office Furniture! Today, I’m excited to share with you nine things I absolutely love about the Herman Miller Aeron chair. This iconic chair has earned its reputation, and I’m going to tell you why. Let’s jump right in!

1. The Suspended Mesh Feeling

The Aeron chair is the most iconic mesh chair on the market, and for a good reason. The suspended mesh provides a unique sitting experience, especially compared to traditional foam-padded chairs. It cradles your back, offering a level of support that’s both comfortable and distinct. Herman Miller perfected this design, making the Aeron a standout choice.

2. Breathability

One of the benefits of the Aeron’s mesh design is its breathability. Unlike foam padding, the mesh allows for airflow, keeping you cooler, especially during warmer months. For those who tend to sit warm, like me, this is a huge plus. And as a bonus—pro tip—it even helps with letting the farts out. Eat those beans without worry!

3. Arm Pad Comfort

The Herman Miller Aeron chair features some of the best arm pads in the industry. They are big, thick, and cushiony, offering superb support no matter how you position your arms. This is one of the features that make the Aeron chair a joy to use daily.

4. Forward Tilt Function

The forward tilt function on the Aeron chair is an optional feature, but it’s one that Herman Miller executed perfectly. It puts you in a great neutral position when you need to be engaged in your work. While I don’t use it all the time, when I do, it’s clear that Herman Miller does it better than anyone else.

5. Tilt Limiter Function

Another optional component that Herman Miller nailed is the tilt limiter. This feature offers a lot of flexibility, allowing you to choose how far back you want to lean. Unlike other chairs with limited positions, the Aeron gives you plenty of ratchet positions to find your perfect recline.

6. Recline Action

The recline action on the Aeron chair is smooth and satisfying. It’s a bucket-style recline, which might not have all the bells and whistles of other chairs, but it feels great. When I lean back in an Aeron, it’s just a good experience.

7. Iconic Design

One of the reasons the Aeron chair is so popular is its cool, iconic design. Herman Miller is known for creating beautifully designed chairs, and the Aeron is at the forefront. Its sleek side profile, especially with the posture fit add-on, looks fantastic.

8. Maintains Its Value

For those like me who enjoy reselling items when done with them, the Aeron chair’s ability to maintain its value is a big deal. It’s one of the best chairs in terms of resale value, making it a wise investment.

9. Build Quality

The Herman Miller Aeron chair is built to last. We refurbish these chairs daily, and I can attest to their durability. With proper care, you can easily get 20+ years out of this chair. It’s a testament to Herman Miller’s commitment to quality.
