I LOVE My New Chair!
« on: August 07, 2007, 02:19:55 AM »

Bought this on eBay for $180. This is the greatest chair I've ever owned. Not all the bells and whistles of an Aeron, but quite a few at a fraction of the cost. It's plenty solid, too. The thing weighs a ton. All metal frame, mesh seat and back, and barely any plastic on the chair at all.

Anyone looking for a new deskchair I highly recommend one of these.

how does the back support compare to an Aeron, I do not see any lumbar support. I have an Aeron at work and would like to have one at home but can't justify that much for a chair.  Who makes this chair?

Eagler, it's a chinese chair made by igo. While it has no independant lumbar, the back has a nice arch in it that provides good support. Binky had others with lumbar, but I went the cheap route.

This is so much better than any deskchair I've ever had it's not even funny.

Just watch yourself there on the rollers rpm.  Seen that e-trade commercial where the guy rolls around himself around his home office & rolls himself right down the stairs?:)

Lets just say if I had a friend that could maybe provide said chairs that could be sent en masse via FedEx for maybe the above said amount.....

Would there be any takers?

Remember that each dollar is contributed to "Republicans for a Tax Free America".

Then again I'd have to contact my friend.
