Re: Need help: picking out a new office chair
nothing wrong with the aeron if you get the right size, but the leap is worlds above it in comfort and functionality.
fwiw, I don't like the humanscale, but some do.

Re: Need help: picking out a new office chair
I know less than nothing about office chairs. I have actually been torturing my butt and back on a kitchen chair the last few years. Are there any decent Aeron clones around if you don't like the price of the real thing?

Re: Need help: picking out a new office chair
I've been sitting on an Aeron at work for the past 3 years. They guy next to me has the "other" chair. It looks a lot like the Leap chair. Lots of adjustments but no one is particularly impressed with either chair in my office. No complaints but I like my $100 leather desk chair at home just fine too. I think I got it at Ikea or OfficeMax. Our assumption is that it's cheaper for them to buy us good chairs than to payout an ergonomic related injury lawsuit. Bottom line to me: Aeron is a good chair but nothing magical and for that kind of (my own) money, I want magical.
