@pkennethv 3 года назад

Really nicely done video - I definitely learned some things :) One additional way (and actually the first way I learned) to identify Mirra 1 vs Mirra 2 is the shape of the rear "support structure" (for lack of better term). With the Mirra 1, it looks like a person holding up their arms to make the letter "Y" (like when doing the YMCA dance). Whereas with the Mirra 2, the top closes to completely a loop, so it looks like a person making the letter "O" with the arms above their head.

I'm glad it was helpful! Also, nice camera choice! I started with the 55mm 1.8 because I wanted something for photos, but have since sold it and purchased a 16-35mm and a 24-105. I use the 16-35mm for talking head and 20% of b-rolls and the 24-105 is used 80% for b-rolls. When I'm taking photos, the 24-105 lives on my camera because it's just so much more useful to use with my young ones. I REALLY want to get a 24mm gm lens for talking head, but used that money to purchase a second camera! I saw Vilitrox is about to release a 24mm 1.8, so I will probably pick that up instead!

Currentely have the Logitech Embody. While i think it can be a great chair for some people it just hurts my lumbar region a lot. It just presses too hard there. Also i get weird cracks and noises all over the chair. Gonna return it and switch to the Aeron. One question i have. You mentioned that the Aeron is only made for people who sit in an ergonomic way all day. Does this inculde putting your feet up on a foot rest or small table? I never sit crosslegged or weird in any other way but i sometimes like to put my feet up while watching a movies and stuff.

@Ahnestly 3 года назад

Sitting up is fine but a classic aeron will be much more difficult to adjust your back tension bc it just takes like 100 turns to get a noticeable difference. The remastered fixed this and few turns = big difference

@Ahnestly 3 года назад

Let me talk to my contact and I’ll let you know. I know about a couple projects they have coming up, but not sure I’m allowed to say anything. None of them involved the aluminum look though, and it might be too niche? Your chair itself is still graphite or mineral or whatever color, no?

@TylerMarsh87 3 года назад

@@Ahnestly Yeah, my chair is Graphite/Polished Aluminum. The Atlas Graphite headrest would look fine, I just think having a polished aluminum version of it would be just that added touch to look as OEM as possible. You’re probably right though, the polished aluminum frame might be to niche for mass production of a headrest in that colorway. Without saying anything that may get you in trouble, based on what you know is in the pipeline would you advise holding off until those products come to light or is it worth just getting the Suspension headrest now?

Tip: half price chairs at the Design Within Reach outlet shops. I got my new $1500 Embody gaming chair for $750.

Really? How?

@kenlewis2253 3 года назад

@@Ahnestly Just google it. For example, www.dwr.com/store?lang=en_US&StoreId=24 explains it as "overstocked, returned and scratch-and-dent furniture offered at substantial savings." I know of their outlets in Brooklyn, Penn, FL, and CA. I bought mine in FL. My Embody shows no signs of wear, so I assume it is either overstocked or returned.

duude the biggest difference and giveaway between mirra 1 & 2 is actually the back of the seat, how did you not notice that 😂

What's the different between the Sayl Crepe and Rhythm fabric?

@Ahnestly 3 года назад

Not 100% sure. The rhythm on the embody is the highest end fabric though. Super breathable, but can be slippery if wearing dress pants or khakis

Got a used Aeron on eBay & it had a bit of a bo odor. Any tips on getting it out? It’s starting to fade but it’s still pronounced

@danzhangy2343 3 года назад

You can try using baking soda on a plate. It is known to “suck” out the smell of things

@briantan3931 3 года назад

Curious why it still holds its value when reselling in 5 to 10 years? Wouldn't it be out of warranty by then, or at least have a shorter warranty remaining?

What are your thoughts on a Celle? I’m looking at a 2013 model for around $200

@Ahnestly 3 года назад

The Celle is a hard plastic. It wasn't meant to be sat on for more than a couple hours ata time, if even that.

I need chairs for Ergonomics rebels. I've been watching all your chair videos... I was waiting until Black Friday Sales or Cyber Monday but the only chair I keep running into is the Lilly pad looking chair. I don't want to pay almost $400. So question, what about buying one of those big/tall or XL chairs... am I on the right track? Until then, I'll keep looking but I desperately need a chair. I started working at home and find myself standing (Definitely agree with switching it up but) with a standard desk. Haaaaa. Hot mess express. Help!

@Ahnestly 2 года назад

If you need a a ergonomic rebel chair, I recommend one of the following: Secret Lab Titan Evo 2022 regular size (unless you're 5'11 or taller, in which case I recommend you get an XL) or a Herman Miller Embody if you're looking for a great balance between ergonomics rebel and proper seating!

Hello, is it normal for the Aeron remastered back seat pan to be loose around the edges where the mesh and the strap around the mesh intercepts ? I noticed my Aeron remastered is a little clumsy when I apply pressure with my finger. Just the top portion of the chair

Hi, just watched your videos about this! I got an offer to get a fully loaded used aeron chair for $350. They even are nice enough to cherry pick it for me to get the best one based off of quality (they got like 50+). They are from 2007-2009. Did I get a good deal?

@Ahnestly 3 года назад

Get the best condition that still has warranty on it and then call a HM dealer and let them know you got it for work and they should fix it up for you as long as you have that sticker

@bingokemski4473 3 года назад

@@Ahnestly The store I'm buying these from, I don't believe that is possible unfortunately. They have to basically "clean" the units, as they got them in bulk from a company. The two chairs I looked at on Monday were from 2007 and 2008. I can definitely look to see how many aerons they have on the floor when I go in on Thursday, to see if I can find a lucky one from mid 2009 or later. They seemed to have bought these aerons overtime as they expanded the company's employees. The cherry pick they told me they aren't searching by year of when it was made, rather best condition, how it functions, how it smells, etc... Hopefully I am able to find one in warranty! A repaired chair is definitely a good option.

@joost3783 2 года назад

I have heard people call the aeron ugly as well - I really don't get it though, IMO it's a truly timeless design.
