I got an Aeron about a year ago. I had a desk chair from Ikea before that. I guess I'm in the minority here but I don't notice a huge difference. I don't dislike it but I don't find it to be any more comfortable than the Ikea chair. I switch back and forth between them and don't really prefer one over the other.

I guess the wheels are quieter on the hardwood floors, my office is above a bedroom so that is much appreciated. And the armrests on the Ikea chair are getting torn up after only a few years so hopefully the Aeron is more durable.

But for $1600 or whatever it was I could invest the money and replace the Ikea chair every two years for the rest of my life.
