Exellent refurbishment, totally worth getting one!

I bought one of HM Chairs a few months ago, an Areon Size C fully loaded specially. I wanted to wait a few months before reviewing because I cannot review a chair like this in only a few weeks of use.

I used to have an old gaming chair that would cause me physical pain to sit on after a few hours, and since I started working at home, I could not be expected to sit in agony for hours on end on this old gaming chair. Finding a Size C fully loaded Aeron is very hard, Size A and Size B are very available in comparison, and if you are a very tall and big guy like me, the Size C Aeron is absolutely the perfect chair for people who spends more time sitting than standing.

HR Chairs packaged this thing really well, it only comes in 2 pieces out of the box, the base and the back rest. Assembly is super simple, just slot in the back rest and screw in the bolts given to you, and you're done.

Adjusting the chair is very easy, though I really would recommend watching some videos on what to do and not to do with these chairs when it comes to their functions, just so the experience is smoother and nothing gets damaged internally.

I can tell that these chairs are defiantly refurbished to a high standard, the chair I received had no marks on any of the body or arm rests. It looked practically new!

Though I would say the seat on my chair is a little saggy more than they usually are, and the hydraulic was possibly replaced as part of the refurbishment process and sometimes is a bit sticky when getting off of the chair so it makes as small thud as the chair rises back up into the normal position, but those are perfectly fine with me and doesn't take away from the quality of the chair.

One thing to note is that because these chairs are mesh, they can get dusty really fast, so make sure to have a brush or blower handy every now and then.

Herman Millar chairs are expensive, even at second hand prices, but when people say the change in posture and feeling when sitting on one is totally different, it's true, I never believed it myself until I started using this one, and I've had 0 pain sitting on this chair since I started using it, so it was totally worth it!

Bought a chair that wasn't quite as expected when received. After sending some photos and explaining the issues a return was arranged and refund issued without problem which was appreciated. Communication was good and straight forward.

2 weeks late and terrible condition

After reading positive reviews I was excited to order from HM Chairs, and thought everything would go smoothly.

I couldn't have been more wrong.

My chair was dispatched 14 days after I ordered it. During these 14 days I received multiple emails telling me that the chair would be dispatched right away, and that the company had an unexpected number of orders, and all chairs are prepared individually to ensure quality.
All of this turned out to be false.
I suspect that they sold me a chair that wasn't in stock and that's why I had to wait so long, because when the chair finally arrived it was in a terrible state.
I ordered the chrome aeron "fully loaded". Someone had sprayed most of the chrome components with silver spray paint, God knows why, and they'd apparently not masked anything off because the black plastic parts all have silver overspray on them! The chair smelt like motor oil and the whole thing felt oily to the touch.
I spent over an hour cleaning it with soapy water, which I had to change about 5 times as it got filthy. I was also able to rub most of the silver spray paint off the chrome parts, but unfortunately it won't come off the plastic.

I told the seller about all of this via email and gave them the opportunity to make it right however they wish, but a week later I've heard nothing.

Overall this was one of the most disappointing shopping experiences I've ever had.

Reply from HM Chairs

Hi,

Thank you for your feedback, and we're sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience.

We’d like to clarify a few points for the sake of transparency. Your order was placed with our 7–10 working day dispatch option, which was selected at checkout. We informed you in advance that there would be a slight delay due to a temporary surge in orders, and we kept you updated throughout the process with multiple emails explaining the situation.

As for the condition of the chair, we take quality control seriously and were surprised to hear your report. All of our refurbished chairs are cleaned, checked, and tested prior to dispatch. The chair you received was listed as refurbished, and some minor cosmetic signs of use are always expected — however, if the condition fell below standard, we absolutely would have worked to resolve this.

We reached out to you promptly after receiving your message, offering to make things right, but unfortunately, we have not received a reply from you since. We are still happy to assist and resolve this if you wish to re-engage with us.

While we understand your frustration, we feel that some elements of your review may not reflect the full context of the order. Nonetheless, we value all feedback and continuously aim to improve based on it.

Kind regards,
Adam

Great service

The chair I received had a defect so I let them know and they set up a return and refund promptly. Adam was polite with his communication and quick to respond.

Great Quality, Great Price

Bought a refurb Herman Miller Aeron from these folks in May 2024, I could not even tell that it wasn't brand new! And for a quarter of the price of a new one.

Had a few questions about the product beforehand and the team were responsive and informative. Highly recommend, if I ever need another HM in future I'll be sticking with these folks.

Restored Faith

There was an issue which was extremely frustrating at the time. What has impressed me was their desire to put things right. I had never purchased or used their services before. Once my concerns were noted they went above and beyond to solve my issue, offering a solution to me via text on a Sunday evening! Keep this up guys, this will make you stand out in the market. I have a business in the start up phase, when the time comes to purchase chairs, you will be the people I reach out too.

What great service

Ordered 2 chairs from this company that were delivered well within the expected delivery date. Both chairs are incredibly good quality for refurbs so well worth the price I paid. I was missing some wheels from one set and they posted a set out next day delivery which was amazing service. I would highly recommend this company.

I needed to get an ergonomic chair to help my back, and HM Chairs is great value for money, the chair I bought looks almost new and has been refurbished to a very high standard. I was able to go and see the chair and try it out, then it was delivered to me a few days later. Thanks!
