I should have said that the Aeron chair I was using didn't have a forward tilt mechanism - it didn't. I still wouldn't buy one though :) In the office space I was renting they had Aeron chairs but there was no lumbar support and the arms were fixed; they obviously went for the cheapest model. Too many additional "extras" to choose from, which increases the price even more. I think certain features, such as forward-tilt, should come as standard with an ergonomic chair.

I have one of those, my wife has the low backed version and we've got 10 of the Credo 4470 conference chairs round our dining table. Peter Opsvik (http://www.opsvik.no/), the designer is a man of genius. If I could afford it (and he designed sofas) I would have no chairs in the house that he didn't design. His Balans Gravity chair is a thing of shining beauty and a holy terror for any cats in the house... Ah yes.
