Review on πŸͺ‘ The Original Headrest for Herman Miller Aeron Chair H3 - Carbon | Colors & Mesh Match Classic Aeron Chair 2016 & Earlier Models - Headrest ONLY by Donald Blasko

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A nice addition to your Aeron - with a few caveats.

Pros: Handy - you won't want to take it off once it's set up properly. Easy adjustment in the chair (two hands). Great just as a headrest, but also great as a matching neck rest. Helps posture even more by relieving strain on the neck, especially when you bend over. Looks like he belongs in a chair. From an aesthetic point of view, everything is fine. Disadvantages: An initial adjustment during installation is absolutely necessary, which can take some time. It's a balance between tight enough to hold your position and loose enough to be adjusted while seated. Remove the side covers and adjust the Allen screws to get the perfect tension. You should be able to move him without releasing the pull rod, but he should also stay in place with his head or the back of his head resting on it. The up and down guides are too easy to accidentally adjust if the position and tilt is slightly different for your head and seating position. It should be at right angles to your head or neck to stay in place easily. You must remove it. However, I have found that I prefer it. Your mileage may vary. Verdict: It's really good once you set it up properly, but it can use a design overhaul so you can make it disappear by tilting it up and back to the side. The up-down guides should be replaced with up-down adjustment knobs for more accurate and secure adjustment. Therefore 4 and not 5 stars. Otherwise I didn't expect to keep it. I was going to send it back but once it's snug and secure I won't be taking it off. It's added comfort, especially when I recline, and it's definitely something I miss when I take it off. Too expensive. The cost of this device must not exceed $100.
