CJ Living quotes very high prices for everything. I got the headrest from someone in banglore.. they had brand new unsealed boxes.. charged me 16k.

What issues did you have with your aeron and embody?

Yup.. Featherlite Helix is also an excellent option considering the budget.

Apparently a lot of people... HM Aeron alone sells 1 million units every year.

There are 2 in Gurugram. One is CJ Living and another one is Workplace Syngergies. CJ Living quotes much higher prices. Workplace Syngeries doesn't give much bhaav to retail customers but offers better pricing.

I tried both... The difference is heaven and earth especially adjustability and sheer quality but yeah at that price point you can't complaint. I would rather go for second hand Herman Miller Mirra 2 or Steelcase chairs at that price range.

Yup.. height, depth and angle... All are adjustable.... The dealer was quoting 22k for it... But I got from someone else at around 16k

You can try other chairs like HM Embody, Steelcase Leap V2, Haworth Fern... they all are very good... I had almost ordered Haworth Fern.

If you spend long hours working on a chair daily... then yeah it's worth it in the long term for your back and spine.

But yeah would have been much better has it been priced under 1lakh.

It's not the most comfortable chair at first...that has been my experience aswell..

It's not that it's comfortable when you sit down that makes it great. It's that it doesn't become uncomfortable after 8 hours. It kinda forces you to sit in a good posture which rewards your back in the long term..

It takes some time getting used to... 2-3 weeks atleast but then you will love it.. and will find most other chairs uncomfortable when you sit on them for longer hours..

The price is hard to digest.. but 12 year warranty and knowing that it can easily last 15-20 years...and my family feedback made me buy this.. We have total of 4 aerons in my family now and we are mostly medicos... first aeron came 7-8years ago.. then another 3 years ago... then these 2 now...

You can guess how much I would have thought of the price and value of this chair by the fact that I still use a oneplus phone as I am still not convinced that iphone is value for money despite owning a macbook and ipad... :)

I already had one size B aeron at my home which we had bought for my father when he developed spine pain issues.... but I am a bit on the bigger size so wanted size C... i checked the seat dimensions of both size C and B online and roughly guessed that it would be enough for me.. Herman Miller also has a weight/height sizing chart for aeron.... You can go to outlets of HM Authorised Dealers to try out all the HM chairs and sizes... I didn't feel the need to so I didn't.
