After 6+ Months
Owned a V2 for 3 years. Mesh held up; lumbar pump worked but was finicky. V3 changes the lumbar to a knob system. For $600 it's the closest thing to Aeron's mesh-back feel.
Why this chair
Pick this if Aeron is out of budget but you want mesh. The Sihoo Doro C300 is $300 less and similarly good for shorter users; Ergohuman is the better pick for taller frames.
