I have had Herman Miller v1 of Mirra and it was awesome for well over a decade. (I still use it in one of my offices, it's probably 17 years old and still in decent condition, but the latest model is built a lot cheaper, don't get it)

I moved to a new office and they gave me a "very expensive" Steelcase leather chair, and it gave me back pain.

I then invested in a Herman Miller Aeron (newest model as of 2021) and it's the greatest chair I have ever had. But keep in mind, I intentionally use it for doing work. Work chairs suck to watch movies and relax in. If you have good posture and you want your chair to help you with your posture they are pure gold.

I have spent over 22 years in a chair, and I have spent 22+ hours a day in my Mirra and 10+ in my Aeron (I am older and wiser now, ha!) and I wouldn't go back to anything less ever again.

NOTE: Do NOT get the Herman Miller Cosm, it is a conference chair NOT a task chair. Go to a show room if you can and try them out, it was worth the time to drive there and do this for me.
