Why The Aeron Highly Adjustable Chair Is The Best Choice

Herman Miller offer the Aeron ergonomic office chair in two different forms, the highly adjustable (aka loaded) version and the basic model.

Let's begin by looking at what you get on any Aeron model and then we'll take a look at the additional choices that make the loaded version the best choice.

Common features of all Aeron models

• 13 choices of seat Pellicle (seating fabric)
• 3 sizes of chair type A, B and C
• Kinemat^® Tilt (promotes natural body movement)
• Tilt tension adjustment
• 5 star base with choice of caster type

Additional features found on the highly adjustable model

• Fully adjustable arms (basic only has fixed arms)
• Adjustable lumbar support (extra cost item on basic model)
• Optional PostureFit^® lumbar support (not normally offered as an option on the basic model)

So, the two key differences between the two models are the adjustable arms and the option of having the alternative lumbar assembly on the highly adjustable version.

Both of these features are highly desirable, particularly the adjustable arms as fixed arms are lacking in flexibility.

Whilst both chairs can accept the adjustable lumbar support, a number of users have found it a bit clunky and even uncomfortable.

The PostureFit^® lumbar support component is a much more sophisticated and better thought out lower back support and makes the Aeron highly adjustable chair the way to go if you can afford it.

This explains all about the PostureFit function and operation.
