If you spend your whole day sitting at a desk, then you probably need a great chair. The Herman Miller Chair is meant to make sitting for long periods of time comfortable.
Designed to naturally adjust to the user, rather than the other way around, the Herman Miller Chair it incredibly sturdy while being lightweight. Although they aren’t cheap, they do seem to be worth their weight in ergonomic comfort.
Implications - Especially now that doctors and others in the medical industry are beginning to examine the long-term effects of a career spent mostly seated. We still don't know how bad it will be, but the Herman Miller Chair increases the chances that it won't be nearly as bad as office workers without a product designed for support and comfort.
