put a fabric cover over it if you don't have vacuum and mind the dirt getting stuck in the mesh

it's pretty universal , those $10 fabric cover backrest & seat together can work ... no need custom size 2 piece kit to maintain that gap at buttock

For someone who is 168cm with big lower body parts(butt n thigh), is aeron comfortable for me? The pointy side edges on the seat seems to be poking my thigh if i was to sit on it. Currently I'm using markus n thinking of removing the arm rest.

the chart includes weight .... if you fat then may need C size .... riskier to buy without trying first if your body is beyond average

only happens when 3.3 , 6.6 , 9.9 , 11.11 , 12.12 monthly sale day
normal day is higher
normal 1.1 , 2.2 maybe lacklustre not big enough coupon , and lazada shopee every year reduce coupon size
the pandemic WFH high demand is gone and I don't think it can go down much further this year 2025 unless somehow exchange rate big difference since it could be imported from china ... $880 to 940 range in final few months of 2024 is probably the bottom

IMO if you feel pain in your current chair , $100 difference from your desired best price is worth it ... current month is too far away from 11 november

Ok. Thanks. Then I wait 3.3 to hoot. If can get $800-900 (savings of $200-300) then why not?

don't count headrest price in otherwise unequal comparison
and atlas headrest real value is only $37 on taobao + maybe $20 budget for forwarder shipping .... not the $200 quoted by chair seller unless you require everything delivered together on same day same invoice
you can upgrade the headrest mesh to taiwan or south korea mesh for extra $ ....... it's not official HM product no need to follow chair seller

because of this skewed value , there are others selling it on carousell new $80-$120 , even second hand with torn mesh can sell for $55 in 1 week

size A is for female or underweight guys
make sure to follow the chart for your height and body weight

My wife and I went to Marina Square to have a look. They are selling at around $1,700. No one bother to come to entertain us. But can see business super good and many youngster all buying at interest free instalment. I wanted to buy 1 for wife to use but she say the price is crazy

Went home to do some homework online.
(1) Audio SG selling A version (without headrest) for $1130.
(2) Newstar selling A version for $1200
(3) Qbox selling A version for $1100+.

All above without headrest. Add in Shopee voucher maybe about $1000. However, A version is like for small ppl. If choose B version then price will shoot up to $1300+.

Carousell got 2 companies (1) certified_herman_miller selling for $1000+ and QGbox selling for $1090.

So far didn’t see the super deal like headrest all in at $900. I think should be as rare as Pokémon

From Herman Miller Website, seem like Xtra is only the sole distributor. I have no issues with warranty claim in my during my 8th and 9th year of warranty with them, replacing the seat and back rest. Parts are shipped directly from Herman miller and fixed by Xtra for a small fee after the 1st year of warranty. There are many resellers in the market which are $400-500 cheaper. I am not sure what is the experience of warranty claim with them or where they source the replacement parts from. Maybe others who bought from these resellers can share.
