Howdy,
I have gone my whole undergrad life using dorm chairs with no arms and recently my mouse fingers started to feel "weird". So it's time for a nice arm'd chair, and maybe even a fancy one!
I had in my mind MESH is the way to go. Some research pointed me to THE mesh chair of the decade, which seems to be the aeron. There's a local dealer I can get one from for $875 for the adjustable with PostureFit. Aluminum is $200 more.
Here's the thing tho, I currently am on a 10 trial of a LifeForm Ultimate Executive Mid-back chair. It's got lots of adjustments, is comfy, and has excellent (large) leather arm rests. The only thing is it's a bit warm, cause of the fabric, and I dont care for the tilt feature, which feels unnatural and forcing me forward.
I know this isn't a chair forum but I saw the chair thread and saw lots of people with Aerons. Are they worth it? Are they actually better than a more traditional fabric approach? This lifeform chair I am trying was more than the aeron, so price isn't the issue. I don't want to bail on proven comfort just for something modern and stylistic, but i'm tempted.
input please.
