Let's talk office chairs

Ok misc. I'm an officel and spend most of my hours at work sitting in my chair. I do have a sit/stand desk so I do alternate between sitting and standing but will be having foot surgery soon so won't be standing nearly as much.

I'm due for a new chair and need some recommendations. I'm currently looking at Herman Miller chairs, but what else are you guys using that you like and lasts?

I am a big dude, 6'3, 275 so I can't fit into a stand size chair.

Price isn't that big of an issue since I'm the finance guy I can make things work.

Honestly brah you really can't go wrong with the Herman Miller Aeron. It's mentioned all the time, but for a genuinely good reason.

Fantastic chair and a 10/10 in my opinion. I picked one up refurbished for $300 in almost mint condition.

If money really isn't a concern, there may be better chairs out there for higher budgets, but I have no experience with them

I have both a Herman Miller Embody and an Aeron. I prefer the Embody.

Are you a big dude? I like the Embody aesthetically, but it looks narrow.

I agree man, they get amazing reviews and the Aeron looks like it would fit the bill for me. Wasn't sure if there way anything else I should be looking at.

No I'm not. 6'1 180 right now.


You can't go wrong with the Aeron though, it's a solid chair. I use that at the office, and my embody at my pc at home.

I googled it, and there are some YouTube videos of bigger guys using the embody and enjoying it.



Herman miller is actually doing a 25% off sale. Right now. So would be a good time to get one. I paid full price like 2 months ago lmao fml. Well charged it thru the company, but still a shame.

I’ve done numerous hours of research and spent wayyy more than I should have but found one I could finally say is the best office chair on the market. It’s rock solid for the price and the most comfortable for those long nights at the office.

Check it out opie.
