    13:05 I think yo may have forgotten to link the chair's site my guy! Regardless I'm on a similar boat, my Aeron's about 2 years old and it's not as bad for me since I have an Atlas headrest on it which is a must imo for such a chair, but trying to fold up my legs is tough due to the hard plastics + the lumbar support isn't as aggressive as I think it should be for such a product

    You sure you got the right size or were sitting with it with correct posture? It's weird that your legs hit the plastic as mine never have :o. But hard to disagree with why you swapped lmfao. That's the thing about the Aeron, it's a chair FOR correct posture, no more no less. It's built for 90 degree body angles, both feet on the floor, etc, if you try anything else you're gonna be hurtin 😂. Learned that myself and that's why I'm about to double up with another chair (steelcase leap maybe?) so while working I can make sure I have my picture perfect posture with the Aeron, but when I'm ready to chill I can get some flex with something that will LET ME be lazy with my posture lmfao. Great review!

    My experiences with the Aeron is that it’s good for a couple of years but over time to me the pellicle material will not support you like it did in the beginning. It’s just not worth the high price tag in my opinion. Yes it’s a popular chair but the science around their build don’t really last long.

    Thanks for the video, I bought the chair recently and it still hasn't arrived, I was discouraged but I will try it and I hope I chose the right size, I ordered a size B, I am 5'8" and 180 pounds, here in Mexico, almost no There are options to choose from, I only had the Steelcase Gesture, the Embody and the Aeron available, I bought the Aeron on sale for 1819 dollars with the leather armrests, it is very expensive for me but that's how taxes are in Mexico :c, I chose it About the others because I want to be upright when I work, I also hope to reduce my hours sitting, no matter what chair is used it is not good to be sitting for so many hours, however, in your case I would make the 12 year warranty valid if the mesh is already It does not have the resistance of the beginning, I would complain only for the price paid, again thanks for the honest review, it is horrible to see how other KZreadrs do not mention these things.

    I think your chair might be too big. I'm 6'2" 180lbs in a Size C and my legs do not rest on the hard plastic. If i had shorter legs i think that they would rest against the plastic however. my back also fits the back rest perfectly. Size down your chair.

  • @Jack-di6rc
    @Jack-di6rc4 ай бұрын

    Judging from the video, the chair is a little too big for you: the seat front is touching the back of your knees and the backrest sits a bit too high on your back. That’s what’s causing you to lose blood circulation in your legs and causing you to feel the hard frame.
