Designed in Italy for the 101-year-old metalworking company, it comes in over 200 upholstery options, including leather slip-on covers and bright-red recycled fabrics. The weight-triggered seat responds to body movements by automatically adjusting its relationship to the back support. Step back, short stuff: this stately perch’s nice long back is made to support other nice long backs.

So confident are the makers of this classic chair that the warranty is a nice long 12 years. Recent updates cater to newfangled millennials and their tendency to sit sideways or backward while tweeting and tumblring. The curve of the arm mimics the curve of the human back. The mesh back is extremely flexible. All that plastic distracts from its high-class price tag. What’s the point of a $1,000 chair if nobody knows how fancy it is? Compact and sophisticated, this Canadian-designed task chair is more feminine than most in its class. The runners along the mesh back allow for particularly minute fine-tuning of the lumbar curve, crucial for long hours at the keyboard. The “waterfall” seat edge—especially dreamy in leather—relieves leg pressure, which is good for knee health and overall circulation. Every manufacturer will say that each chair fits all sizes, but the petite will be more enamoured of this seat than the tall. During a “global posture study” of 5,000 workers, Steelcase found that traditional keyboarding is virtually extinct: we’re all leaning back and texting, sitting sideways or curled up with our tablets.

As such, the Gesture’s arms move a full 360 degrees to accommodate a range of seating positions. It’s slim and streamlined to manoeuvre in a cubicle, but soft enough to sit in for hours. The locking armrests are complicated, with a tendency to abruptly slide out of place if not properly latched. Straight out of Norway, this unusual looker is favoured by doctors due to its no-nonsense approach to back support (and the option of easily cleaned, non-PVC vinyl). Other options include a head or foot rest. The cutout seat was designed to mimic a jockey’s saddle and encourages leg circulation. It’s severely European: sit up straight, or else. After a couple of weeks it might feel dreamy, but initial impressions are kind of ouchy. HERMAN MILLER EMBODY | First released in 2008, this shapely chair has many loyal fans. Its padded seat is both cushy and breathable, while the hourglass shape encourages deeper breaths and provides enough arm room to gesticulate in meetings.

My current no-name mesh back chair has these problems: (this list keep growing as I learn more about ergonomics) Over the past few months I’ve tried out a bunch of chairs at home, in stores, and showrooms.

It’s as good as I remember! I find I compare all the other chairs to this one. I spent a couple of hours in a Herman Miller SAYL at a consulting job a few months ago, and in a few stores. I wish I could find a place to rent one in Canada. CORT in the USA rents the SAYL This is supposed to be one of the successors to the Aeron. I spent a few minutes in Herman Miller Mirra at a store. The mesh seat as good as the Aeron, but lacks in other areas. The Herman Miller Mirra 2 has a softer feeling back than the Mirra. I didn’t notice other major differences. The seat is comfortable and the seat length adjustment is really cool, but I fit better in the Aeron. The padded seat and mesh back of the Knoll Regeneration reminded me of the SAYL, but without the freedom to move my arms around due to the wide back. The Herman Miller Setu is not a heavy duty office chair, but it was nearby and meshy looking, so I gave it a try. The Humanscale Diffrient World chair was a surprise find.

I spent about 20 minutes in it in a few sitting sessions. It has a mesh seat and back like my favorite (the Aeron), and is much lighter and simpler to adjust. I tried out the Liberty at the HumanScale showroom in Toronto back-to-back with the World chair. The Liberty feels a bit more solid than the World. Sitting in it was silent, and recline mechanism felt smoother. The back support fits my body very well. I tried out the Haworth Zody at the Haworth showroom in Toronto back-to-back with the Very. This chair feels solid and comfortable, and packs a lot of features. BTW, it’s pronounced hay-worth, not haw-orth. The area around the shoulders doesn’t feel as nice as Zody, probably because the frame isn’t flexible. Otherwise, it feels very similar and is a bit less expensive. The Herman Miller Celle offers a lot of features at a good price, but isn’t right for me. The cellular suspension design and recline tension are too stiff for my weight, and the shape of the back didn’t feel right to me.
