How many are you looking for and what's the budget?

Our place got Aerons after some study concluded that the reduction in lost hours due to back problems justified the cost (£700 each RRP I think).

£700? At that price I would want an MX5 attached to it.

Lovely chair and looks like decent quality, but at that money I would be looking for a high-end office chair and not a novelty chair.

I hate those things - can never get comfy on them. I have to have a different sort of chair at work to everyone else

These were the people that our Occ Health Nurse recommended. (cost us around £750 per chair mind!!)

£700 is for an Aeron (with some options), see the configurator. Used ones can be had for nearer £400 on eBay.
