You're correct, it's a Staples Hyken that I got on sale for $130 since I was a former chairless broke boi. I hope to get a couple of years out of mine so I could find a second hand Aeron or somehow get enough money to get one new
I'm sitting on an Aeron at work, it's good, but I can't in good conscience pay that much for a chair. I was recently on the market for a new office chair and extensively researched it. It really looks like it's a hit or miss with every chair in every price range, and I was very seriously considering replacing my Hyken with another Hyken. I decided to go with the IKEA Markus and have been sitting on it for about a month. I'm only moderately happy with it, may even return it before the year is up although I'd hate doing it.
Unfortunately this is the Herman Miller we have at home, the Staples Hyken. Just moved and I couldn't afford to have my ass and back blessed by Herman Miller. Though one day my tithe may be grand enough to receive Herman Miller's blessing
I need to get a chair like that the moment my "boss chair" breaks. Fake leather and no adjustability kills me, it's literally designed for someone who doesn't want to work at a desk, except my mom's boyfriend went soyface at it...

That is almost certainly Staples Hyken. Comfortable chair but cheaply made, mine started disintigrating in a couple of years.

Could I instead interest you in an embody? I find it's a much better model.

I bought mine second hand. It somehow appreciated in value since I bought it.
Rai@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 3 pts · 1y
I was gonna buy one but decided to wait. Then the VID happened and they’re all 100-200USD more than they used to be, used. D:

Wait for a sale and you'll do pretty good

Well it is currently 53% off. But that doesn't matter since I am not from the US

I got tired of my kid saying "look", so I tried to teach them to say behold instead.
They still say look. I should have gotten a dog.
