Steelcase Series 1. Not as fancy as the Aeron but it has even more ways to adjust everything.

I bought it new.

I think the cowhide is really cool but it’s a little crazy expensive

It doesn’t even have wheels :(

Laura Davidson has really high quality reps of the management chair for $300-500, with a three year warranty. I’d say they’re about 75% of the quality for ~15% of the price of the real deal

Autonomous ai Ergo 2 - $349

If you’re in a major metro check craigslist for used Aerons. I’ve bought 2 from the same guy in NoVA for less than $350

I’ve been with the company 8.5 years & am the only one in my role, which they can’t operate without. I execute tasks from two investment advisors and two financial planners - they make the decisions of what should happen & I make it happen.
