Its looks are only the beginning. Aeron accommodates both the sitter and the environment. It adapts naturally to virtually every body, and it's 94% recyclable. Even if it's black, it's green. Some designs defy imitation, and the Aeron chair is one of them. Bill Stumpf, designer of the 1970s chair of the decade (Ergon) and Don Chadwick, designer of the 1980s chair of the decade (Equa) threw out all past notions of what an office chair should be and started from scratch. Concepts like why is it, for example, comfortable to lay in the sand or a hammock. Answer: Because they mold to the body shape each body of course being different.
The chair was so different in its appearance that it almost did not get past Herman Millers own marketing department.

Yes, but you should know a few things first. The Aeron chair was designed by Don Chadwick and Bill Stumpf in 1994. It was deliberately designed to have a unique signature shape, as all previous ergonomic task chairs were beginning to look the same. It was designed to have no cushions and no fabric. This differentiation was the strategy that made the Aeron a classic and highly sought after chair. Today it is featured in the Museum of Modern Art’s permanent collection. When you search for the right used Used Herman Miller Aerons in Kansas City you should know that there are two basic designs. The Classic design is the original design (shown above), and the Posturefit model (shown below) is the latest design, with an improved lumbar support.
Each style of Aeron chair comes in 3 sizes, A,B,& C, from smallest to largest, respectively. Arms are either soft foam, or fabric covered. All chairs will have pneumatic height adjustment, tilt tension, and fully adjustable arms. Some chairs will have a tilt lock feature as an add-on.

You can now build your own version of the best selling ergonomic office chair in the world! The patented Pellicle® seat of a Herman Miller Aeron Chair is a highly engineered weave which stretches in two directions, thus providing load-bearing support and form-fitting comfort but with none of the bulky foam seats of ordinary office chairs. Being an open weave design also means it allows air to flow through, reducing heat build-up and dissipating moisture. Ergonomics is all about optimum comfort, ensuring a chair fits to the body perfectly, especially while working for hours at an office desk. The backrest suspension system of the Herman Miller Aeron Chair is adaptable for all shapes and gives the body support whilst working.
Posturefit® provides perfect lumbar support just where it’s needed, at the base of the spine. The Kinemat® tilt mechanism allows you to move naturally but keeps you perfectly balanced and always in control.
