There's always a lot of talk in these threads about how expensive these chairs are, and they are indeed. If you're very lucky you can get great deals on barely used ones, but this fits into the old adage about spending on things that go between you and the ground (along with mattresses and tires). I hate how much I spent on it, but my backside and back are much happier with it than the garbage office store chairs I've had before that are already worn out in two years.
This is $16 more than the sale price I paid then, which seems like a good deal, although I got the hard-floor casters, which have been really easy on my wood floor without a chair mat. Unfortunately the version with those doesn't appear to be on sale. You can get them separately, but they're pricey that way.

Everything is adjustable, which is really nice - armrests adjust horizontally and vertically, seat bottom, seat height, back, etc, etc. So very customizable based on ergo needs. It weighs about 1000 pounds and I can't figure out for the life of me why...must have a lead core or something. The back rest started squeaking after a couple of months - I called support and they said to spray some lubricant in there. With that expert advice it now squeaks slightly less.
Overall a nice chair - I wouldn't personally pay this much for it though.
1. Comes with carpet casters. Hard floor casters will run another $100.
2. I prefer Era fabric to Cogent fabric. Personal preference in terms of style and feel.
The two items I mention above are not currently available at a slick deals price so I don't have any links to post. Just offering my perspective to help you make an informed decision. This is a very good chair at a good price. Typically these run $600+ used in very good condition.
Thanks for finding OP! Repped

This steelcase is much more supportive and I've been hooked since I got one. To be fair, my aeron was a bit older and it was second hand, but it was mint when I got it.
When the time comes for replacement I'll get another gesture.
