Ask HN: Are Herman Miller Aerons worth the money?

Yes, but try out a few other chairs of similar quality first. They all have slightly different shapes and some feel better than others, depending on the person. Even in the office I use, we have several batches of Aerons with slightly different feels and features.

EDIT - Here are some other brands that usually don't carry such a price premium on CraigsList:

I love my Ergohuman ME7ERG Mesh chair, which I got on sale a few years ago for a little over $500. The fact that it has a headrest is a big plus, even though it makes my office look a bit like a spaceship cockpit, but I suppose that's a good thing.
