Split the difference. Get a refurbished aeron. I used these guys - the chair has held up for a decade+

They're legit. Just older models from companies downgrading their office space or getting new chairs
When your company offers you a chair from the office during corona times and you damn well know you’ll never return it
Well from what Ive heard my balls and ass don’t really sweat at the office… it was the chair in my office

So it’s either $50 or $2000, Interesting 🤔
Yeah I was making 🥜 in accenture and now after I left I have a lot of extra money 🥴

Or get a bottle of WD40 🤷♀️
My company (not EY) let us buy our office chairs for $20 since they were doing a total remodel.
It's definitely an abused chair, but I'm too cheap to spend $100s on a new chair.

How’s it compare to an aeron? I’ve always been on the edge of buying one

I got a staples one for $200 that’s great
Oh I forgot they sell chairs LOL. I’ll check staples,Walmart, target and Costco to see if they have any great chairs for cheap

The price is similar to Herman miller (~500 diff) does this chair last long?

Check out Facebook marketplace. I got my Aeron chair for $450. It has some scratches and obviously used beforehand, but still works as normal and back doesn’t hurt at all

There are also some furniture resale stores too where offices sell old stuff to them, could be a good option tio
Got an Aeron - life changing
Go for gaming chairs - relatively cheap and very comfortable. They look cool too!
I got an x-chair and love it!

I purchased a Herman Miller Mira 2 at a local furniture store in Cincinnati and love it, it was new old stock with the tag still on it for 500 instead of 1300-1400

Got my Herman miller lightly used off FB marketplace for $280
I would highly recommend a used one. I bought mine off FB marketplace for $350 two years ago and it’s going strong.
This train of thought sent me on an emotional roller coaster
Bought a refurbished Steelcase from Crandall and it's fantastic. Much cheaper than new and their entire process can be viewed on YouTube.
