Know before you buy
Herman Miller sizes are based on the Aeron fit chart, which correlates your height and weight to the chair's frame. Size A is designed for smaller frames, B is the standard medium, and C is built for larger or taller individuals.
A fully loaded Aeron includes the complete suite of ergonomic adjustments, specifically tension control, rear tilt locks, and adjustable lumbar support. These features allow you to customize the chair's resistance and recline to match your specific posture needs.
No, the fixed arms are stationary and do not offer height or width adjustments. If you require the ability to move your armrests frequently, you may want to consider a model with adjustable arm options.
Unlike foam, which can trap heat and lose its shape over time, the Wave suspension is a breathable mesh that distributes your weight evenly. This design reduces pressure points on your legs and torso while allowing for constant airflow.
Select standard casters for general use on low-pile carpet. If you have hardwood floors, choose the dedicated hardwood casters to prevent scratching, or opt for the deep carpet casters if you have thick, plush rugs.
Refurbished chairs are thoroughly inspected, cleaned, and tested to ensure all mechanical components—such as the tilt locks and height adjustment—function like new. While they may show minor cosmetic signs of previous use, the structural integrity and ergonomic performance are fully restored.
