If you sit at a desk a lot, your back will thank you!

I've had a lot of ergonomic chairs, including the Aeron, Mirra, and even a custom built zero gravity Swiss-made chair. They all have pros and cons. But so far the Knoll Generation is the best of the group. Very firm seat support, although you can get that on lots of chairs. The plus with this chair is the flexible back which does allow you to stay in the chair and still use it in a dozen different ways during the day. High performance arms are worth the upgrade price - I have never had a chair that lets me so finely tune the angle I want when typing. The lumbar support is very rudimentary but I would would go for it because it gives just a little extra needed support for the back on those long days. Finally, the Generation adjusts higher than the other chairs I've had, so if your desk is tall, it's no problem to sit as high as you wish. Design is sleek and great - a bit smaller than the Mirra and Aeron it replaced I wish there was a little less plastic (only thinking about long term durability) but it seems to be the way most of these chairs are made nowadays. All in all, a top rating (ck back with me in a year :-)

I sit at a computer most of the day at work. This chair is by far the best I have ever experienced. It moves when and where you do and makes it possible to concentrate on the work at hand. It gives me great back support and is ergonomic in every way. I had this chair when working for a former employer and just had to have it again. You can probably take me to the grave with this chair as this is the only chair I will ever own.

Every Desk Needs A Knoll Task Chair

I wanted a task chair for my home office that would provide comfort, support, and style. When I saw the Generation chair by Knoll, I hoped it would be comfortable and supportive because I liked the modern style and the range of available colors. I hesitated when I saw the price, but I decided to bite the bullet and go for it. How often does one buy a task chair? I'm counting on keeping this one for 20 years! The chair has proven to be very comfortable. I chose green mesh and extra padded seat, arms, lumbar support, and hardwood floor wheels. I probably could have eliminated the support because it is very supportive without it. The office has hardwood floors, and I find chair rolls easily on the floor.
