Still unsure? Ask yourself three things. How many hours a day will you sit? (8+ hours: Aeron or Embody.) Do you prefer mesh or a padded seat? (Mesh: Aeron. Padded: Embody.) Will several people use the chair? (Setu.)
The Aeron is the chair that changed office seating, and the only Herman Miller chair made in three sizes. Its Pellicle mesh seat and back let air through and keep you cool, which makes a real difference on warm days.
Which size are you? Every Aeron page has a size finder: enter your height and weight and it recommends A, B or C and shows which chairs in that size are available. Each Aeron page also has a step-by-step How to adjust guide.
The Embody was designed for people who sit for very long stretches. Its back works like a spine: it flexes as you move and spreads your weight across the seat and back, so no single point takes the pressure.
Comparing it with the Aeron? Read Aeron or Embody: which is right for you.
The Mirra 2 is light in look and quick to respond. Its Butterfly suspension back flexes with you, while the AireWeave seat supports you without feeling hard. A strong all-rounder for everyday desk work.
The Sayl brings full ergonomics in a design that stands out. Its frameless suspension back, inspired by suspension bridges, supports you firmly while leaving you free to move.
The Setu adapts to whoever sits on it, with almost nothing to adjust: you set the height and the flexible suspension seat and back do the rest. That makes it ideal for meeting rooms, hot desks and any chair that several people share.
Choosing between the lighter models? Read Mirra 2, Sayl or Setu.
Any of them is a big step up from an ordinary office chair, provided it is set up properly. For lower-back support you can fine-tune, the Aeron (PostureFit SL) and the Mirra 2 (adjustable lumbar) are the usual choices. The Embody suits people who need to keep moving. If you have a medical condition, follow your doctor’s or physiotherapist’s advice.
The Aeron and the Embody are both designed for long working days. Choose the Aeron if you prefer a cool mesh seat and a size-specific fit; choose the Embody if you prefer a padded seat and a back that moves with you.
Only the Aeron, which comes in sizes A, B and C. The Embody, Mirra 2, Sayl and Setu are made in one size and adjust to fit most people.
