I'm in the market for a top of the line office chair. I planeed on simply buying the best herman miller aeron chair and paying full price in order to get the 12 year warranty. but since im lazy i doubt i would ever use the warranty, i also would like to have it shipped directly to my house.
does anyone have suggestions or links about what/where I should buy?
thanks!

ugh, i'm sitting in that chair and i'd call it very mediocre
the arms are very flimsy and not at all luxurious -- the overall feel of the chair is pretty good

Can I get a headrest for my aeron? It's no good for leaning back and relaxing.

You should check out the Freedom Chair if you like to have a headrest.

I've have the aeron for several years and I like it. It's a little cold in the winter, but with a pad it's ok. Great in the summer. One major complaint is the weak lumbar support. Seems like they could do better for the price.

I have an Aeron at work. It is outstanding, although I do agree that the arms could be a bit better.

Love my aeron. Except for the missing head rest.
I bought a refurbished one on ebay. Seems ok to me.

I have owned two. Bought then both for $200 when Urbanfetch.com went out of business. Best $200 I ever spent /images/graemlins/smile.gif

i tried that out in a store and the man claimed i was too tall for it -- i noticed some of the higher end makes offer "tall" model chairs for an extra price

Well, we have a 1 size fits all at my work, where everyone company-wide has one. A few people in my group who are 6'2"-6'4" claim to love the chairs. Not sure how tall you are, but I think they're pretty good.

i'm 6'1 -- the problem was i had to move my body forward in the chair and lean back in order to be able to use the headrest properly
i think the ones made for tall people might be more in line with the head in a normal position
