I bought a steelcase gesture about a month ago (slightly used place in NJ sold them) and have no complaints (other than it’s so comfortable my cat keeps stealing it)

You can get Aerons for about $300-500 from offices selling old office equipment. At the start of the pandemic, they were all over used marketplaces on the web. They might still be. Definitely look into that as an option.

Swopper unbalanced stool. I’m fat and it gives my core some activation so I don’t completely blob out.

Secret Lab Titan. Very comfortable, high quality, and only $400.

I must be the only one who finds the aeron uncomfortable. Find that it really digs into my thighs. Maybe I'm too short

Same. I really thought I wanted one and when we went to the place to test the plastic just dug into my legs too much (only 4’11”). I had this idea they were just the greatest chair but not for me.

Used Aeron. Hit FB marketplace up

Steelcase gesture w/ headrest

Herman miller aeron - so worth the 1.5k

Herman Miller Embody

Varier kneeling chair

Aeron Chair is the best. Make friends with the office procurement team.

Most companies purchase them for $600 all in brand new. LinkedIn’s supplier team arranged for us to get them for $659 fully loaded with delivery included at the start of the pandemic.

HAG Capisco looks interesting. Has anyone tried it?
