Thinking of getting an Aeron Classic, at 6'3" I almost certainly want the Size C right? Unfortunately I can't find anywhere to try one around here so I need goonpinions

I measured the distance from the back of my knee to my back while sitting and got 53cm, and the Classic spec sheet says the C seat is 47cm deep, so I guess that answers my question The B at 43cm sounds far too shallow for me

Mega Comrade posted:HM actually have a size guide and it slaps me into the B or C category but 0.3lbs away from the C category. Yeah I saw that, it's worth noting that the Classic has a different size guide though https://www.hermanmiller.com/content/dam/hermanmiller/documents/product_literature/other/ap_sizefitref_classic_aeron_chairs.pdf The one you linked is for the Remastered

no idea what the stock castors on that chair are like but if they're not soft enough you can just replace them with these rubber ones https://www.amazon.com/Universal-Including-Hardwood-Rollerblade-Replacement/dp/B07FP56VND nearly all chairs (except ikea ones) use the same castor fitting

i have one, finding it much more comfortable than the leap (due to the breathable back) and aeron (due to being more flexible and forgiving) i tried previously feels solid, overall it's very similar to the leap in design and construction aside from the mesh back i have the version without the extra aggressive lumbar support and it works for me but YMMV the main compromise is that the forward tilt implementation is half assed, only the seat tips forward, it doesn't bring the back with it like the aeron does

mine has the standard mesh back, i assume the digital knit version will trap more heat for better or worse depending on your climate the mesh is comfortable, it's not rigid like the aeron, it's a softer material supported by a flexible plastic frame kind of like a poor man's embody repiv fucked around with this message at 16:58 on Oct 28, 2023 |

how budget is "budget", the haworth fern i've been shilling is quite a bit cheaper than the embody but not exactly cheap in absolute terms either (it's currently discounted to £750 on haworths own store)

i have the version without the lumbar upgrade - the frame itself has a lumbar curve built-in, but the upgrade makes it more aggressive and adds vertical adjustment it works for me but how much lumbar you want is a personal preference thing, IIRC one of the BTOD guys actually preferred the version without the extra lumbar having tested both i'm tall so i skipped right over the zody, the backrest isn't high enough repiv fucked around with this message at 22:07 on Nov 7, 2023 |

jaete posted:I looked at these Bekant things but for some reason they, as a lot of other contemporary tables, only have two proper legs instead of four, and the reviews say they are a bit wobbly as a result. A puzzling trend, it seems that something like 90% of all desks these days are two-legged. I would have thought sturdiness (= 4 legs) would be like... the whole point of a desk? quad-leg standing desks exist but they're considerably more expensive than the dual-leg ones, and there aren't very many options in the UK currently flexispot UK has a couple, the E2Q (two motors driving two legs each) and the E7Q (quad motor, hella expensive)

Jiro posted:Love my Fern bought it during Black Friday month, digital mesh padding breathes super well, I also got the lumbar support, back feels loving great and I can sit in it for hours. I do wish the armrests would lock into place, and a built in head rest when I've leaned back in full recline. atlas sells an adapter which lets you put one of their aeron headrests on the fern, if you're so inclined
