I managed to nego for RM2.5k with the headrest

i am looking for an ergonomic chair for WFH purpose. I am deciding among this few brands

1) Alterseat CG-07
2) Sihoo M57
3) Space Ergonomic Seat (heard it's a rebranding from sihoo?)

My budget is 1k, any other recommendations?

how long does it take generally to adapt to a new chair?

tested the chair on site and it felt so comfortable

but I'm struggling abit at my home with the new chair :S

Exoflare Are Boan still doing the RM100 off Aeron promo? Interested in picking one up.

I think it's something to do with your overall workstation and chair adjustment. Not sure how you tested, but for me, I made the mistake of only sitting but not trying out with a workstation -- desk and keyboard etc.

Is the desk height suitable?
- If the desk height is too high, you end up compensating by increasing your seat height, then your feet might not touch the ground. You'll need a footrest.
- If the desk height is too low (unlikely?), I think your wrists will sore.

Are you working with laptop instead of PC? Laptops are harder to achieve ergonomic posture. Monitor/screen should be at eye level. Your head and body should relax against the chair. Frankly I forget to rest my head often so I tend to have sore neck by EOD lol.

im doing ok for all these

im still trying to get my back to be familiar/used to the back of new chair ....

although it's better now but there's still some strain(pressure?) on my back when sitting upright to the back of the chair

Hi guys, I'm looking to purchase the remastered Aeron chair.

Is Trax Furniture my best bet to obtain an original one? Any other legitimate sellers that I can reach out to for a potentially better price?

yes trax is the only you can get from. And the warranty is legitimate. The rest of other sellers/resellers is just supplier's warranty. Becareful on that. i have checked with them, if there's an issue, they TRY to give/replace the broken parts.

But i got it from Trax in the end, and i was unfortunate enough to have faulty Aeron Chair. Instead of TRYING to change the broken parts? They sent real mechanics that opened up the chairs, confirmed that it's broken and then just replace a brand new chair still sealed in the box for me. Because that's the Herman Miller's authorised guarantee.

So you get what you pay for. I was glad that i didn't cheap out on that money seriously because if i had any issues, i don't know how the "suppliers" could help me solve the problems. And they won't replace a new chair for you for sure.

Space chair is rebrand of Sihoo M57. Check the design. Exactly the same

Is there any physical store in Klang Valley that has Herman Miller Aerons that I can walk-in to test? and buy?

Only Trax Furniture.

thanks!!

That's a very good point, thanks. I came across some alternative sellers, but they come off too dubious for me to make any kind of deal with them.

Tried merryfair wau and anggun, sihoo m57 and altersear cg-07.

I think will decide to purchase merryfair wau. Love the lumbar support feel..Any other brand is similar to merryfair wau at the same price range?

yes because you are paying even 5-6K for other resellers. You do not really know where they get these supplies from, could be "rejected" or "faulty" goods for all we know.

You do pay more for Trax furnitures, about 6K - 7K these days, but at least you get a peace of mind. If you are paying that much money for something, just get from authorized dealer. The only one in Malaysia is Trax Furniture.

Thinking to get EVIS ergonimic chair but the price so keras. If with this budget got better brand intro ?

https://www.evis.com.my/products/Ergonovis%...4%A2-p238352003

Steelcase perhaps.

EVIS chairs are basically Sihoo rebrand/OEM
Ergopro would be Sihoo's M57 which has half the price
Ergonovis (your link) looks like A7: https://www.sihoo.com/en/gongxuezuoyi2/12.html

May i know which model recommended ?
